Kara bear's 5th

We thought we would let Kara open her gifts yesterday so that she could have time to play with them. She had school today, so If we waited for her to be out of school, then for Ben to get home, it'd be time for dinner. So she wouldn't have had a lot of time to play. So Kiersten helped me put up a few decorations, and we let her open all of her gifts. a few cute action shots.

we gave her this singing hamburger card. Both girls loved it, and we heard the song all day yesterday. Kara even wanted to take it to school today for show and tell, as it was her turn to be class helper today.

she got this guitar, and was even nice enough to let Kiersten play with it while she read a new book. I like this shot of Kiersten rockin her Bieber hair, and Evie standing so proudly in the background.

rock star Kara. She has been making up songs already.

She is also thrilled about her own scrapbook. She made a few pages last night. I cleared out a corner of my scrapbook room and set a little table in there for her to have her own space.

Kara trying out her new hello kitty scooter in the kitchen. Ben took her outside to try it after this. She told me today that she will be giving Kiersten scooting lessons now.

Kara was excited to get ready for school this morning. She wore a new outfit, and kept saying that it was a big kid outfit. The dress Kiersten is wearing is the same dress Kara wore on kiersten's first birthday.

I love how Keirsten is all into the hug, and Kara is still trying to look pretty, and look at the camera.

Kiersten silly pants wanted her picture taken alone too. Can't let Kara have the spotlight...
