Jane's 5th Birthday

Janie girl turned 5 this year. 5 is a big deal in our house because it's the first real birthday party you get to plan. Jane was counting down until her birthday and I think it was a success! We started the morning with a donut tower and presents. I think every kids favorite part are the presents.

 We then went and got Jane's haircut-which is her favorite thing EVER. She LOVES it. 

 I was tying to get a picture of her and I with our new haircuts, but she didn't want to smile.

 Next on the list was Jane's first time getting her nails done. I wish I had filmed the entire experience. Jane LOVED it. She was giddy with excitement the whole time and couldn't believe she got to put her feet in the spa bath water and got her nails painted. The gal that painted her nails was so sweet with her and even added sparkles just for the birthday girl.

 Jane picked Chick Fil A for dinner and was thrilled to get a kids meal and play in the play place.

 Then it was home for cake! 

 A few days later we threw a "Shopkins" themed birthday party! We made a life size "Shopkin-land" game, made bracelets, had face painting, and even ended the whole day with a dance party. Jane was so excited to have all her friends over to celebrate HER.

 At one point I caught all the girls doing their makeup in the bathroom. It was so cute I snapped pictures instead of stopping them. They were so excited to have lipstick.

 At the end of the party I wanted a picture with Jane and her cousins. She was DONE and did not want to smile. I had to threaten her with her new birthday presents to finally get to smile...

 It worked because she smiled like a champ. It really was so funny.

 The take home favors :)

I was EXHAUSTED at the end of the party, but the girls had so much fun and Jane was on cloud 9 all day!
