Our early morning faces. We all got up quietly that morning and let the birthday girl sleep. Then my husband fixed the banana bread/cake and we woke her up singing "Happy Birthday".
One thing we let our children do on their birthdays, or actually before, is pick what they want to eat that day. She picked Pizza Hot Pockets, Tornados, mozzarella cheese sticks, and some kind of chicken Chinese food. We had the Hot Pockets and banana bread/cake for breakfast, the Tornados and cheese sticks for lunch and the chicken for supper. Oh, and chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwiches were dessert for lunch and supper's dessert was Klondike bars. Yum! What? Oh, yeah. None for me. Oh well. There's always next year.
Psst...and for a surprise for her, we're having cake and more stuff Sunday at a friend's house. She knows we're doing something, she just doesn't know what. So, probably next week I'll have some more about her birthday.
Until next time...

Wow what a birthday menu. That all sounded good to me. All the desserts YUM!
Cute picture.
Oooh, I think I'd get along great with her, too -- she likes Dr. Pepper, mozzarella cheese sticks, chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwiches? My new best friend, I think! :P
How fun!!! Love the pics.
Wow, it seems like everyone's birthday is in October these days. Happy Birthday to her!!
Sounds....like a lot! My Angel turns 11 tomorrow and we do the same thing. The only thing I am sure of is he wants my mac-n-cheese for dinner. I imagine tomorrow we will also partake in pb&j sandwiches, sardines and pancakes (not all in the same meal, but still). Next birthday isn't until some time next year so we'll have time to settle our stomachs.
Birthdays are always a super special and food-centered event in our house, too. The boys always have their special meals picked out months in advance. But Kaitlin's birthday is just weeks away and she still hasn't decided what she wants. Tell me, what is that about?
