Lydia's sixth birthday

Lydia turned six on January 5th.  Somehow I missed posting about her birthday. Lydia's birthday was on a Thursday so we went to preschool.  She was so excited to bring treats to share with her friends at school.  Lydia really wanted to turn cupcakes into a dress for her birthday cake.  It was fun to do for her and it turned out pretty cute.  At first Lydia wanted chocolate cupcakes with chocolate frosting, but she changed her mind because a brown dress could only be a work dress not  a princess dress.  She finally decided on Red Velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting tinted purple.  We decorated with candy pearls and marshmallows.  

Licking the beaters was great fun.  It looks like Lydia has a serious injury.

 Lydia was so excited to get  a bike for her birthday.  She was also really happy to get a bag of Apple Jacks cereal.  She loves Apple Jacks and she doesn't think she gets them very often.
