Life With The Myers: Happy 5th Birthday Taylor!

Wow...Taylor is 5! I cannot believe it! We decided that since it was a big milestone birthday for her that we would do something extra special for her this year. We surprised her by taking she and Maddie to the Children's Theater in Seattle to see Good Night Moon. When Taylor woke up in the morning she got to opened up a very fancy dress with matching gloves with an explanation of what we were doing. I don't think she fully understood what was going on because after we had been in the car for 10 minutes or so and she was giving me all kinds of grief that this wasn't her choice to be driving far away on her birthday. Once we got to the theater though she started to change her tune on the whole thing. The play was amazing and the girls loved every minute of it!

Should we be concerned that at age 5 she requested "kid wine" in the bath tub at 8 am?

After the play we got back into the car and headed to Chuck E Cheeses...yes, I did say Chuck E Cheeses. Taylor a few months ago got it into her head that she really wanted to go there. We actually haven't been to Chuck E Cheeses since she was one- and if you remember it ended in her first trip to the emergency room for stitches! So, she was very excited to be going! And you know what? We had a blast! Since it was 90 degrees outside no one was inside and so we had the place to ourselves! We ended the night by coming home and having Jamoca Almond Fudge ice cream and homemade sugar cookies! It was a very fun day!
