january 18th - gemma’s weekend...day 1

Our GemGem is now a whole hand years old and we cannot believe it. She was so excited to come out of her room this morning to see all the decorations. She told us before bed that she would stay in her room until we came and got her...big smiles. Gemma especially loved the rainbow of balloons that Mommy hung from the bridge. 

We opened some presents this morning, had rainbow pancakes, a celebration at school, sang happy birthday 3 times, went to Roots for dinner (Gemma’s request), and had Nomad cannolis.  Her absolute favorite was her last present that she opened at nighttime...her very own iPad. Five is looking pretty good.
