Today is Ella's birthday! I can't believe she is 5 years old. I remember
the morning before her birth, I felt like I had really bag gas pains. I
didn't think they could be contractions! As they started to come more
often and closer together, James insisted that we go to the hospital.
After I took a shower, we headed to the hospital and 2 hours after the
start of the "gas pains" our little Ella was born. After we took her
home, James said that it felt like we were just "babysitting". Five
years later we are still "babysitting" a wonderful little girl, who is
so smart, beautiful and precious! We love our ELLA!

Birthday breakfast: Fruit Loops! I told Ella she could pick whatever she wanted for her special birthday breakfast and she chose Fruit Loops, "like at the hotel". :)
Making pizza for the party!
Cheese! YUM! Tater: "Give me some of that cheese."
Ella with her cake. She kept saying all morning, "This is the perfect birthday." :)
Slip-n-slide fun! I remember having a slip-n-slide as a kid and it was a blast. Hopefully this will be a memory for Ella too.
Having fun with friends! Lucy (striped bathing suit) and Molly (polka-dots) are sisters. Lucy is Ella's age and Molly is Miriam's age. They are already good friends. I hope we can grow up with them and they can make fun memories with each other.
