My Baby is 6 years old!

In all the fuss of vacation week, I sort of forgot to blog that La Principessa Sofia Phoebe Daniella Rothkopf turned 6 years old on February 18!

That was the Friday before vacation week. First thing in the morning, we gave her presents from the family: my folks "got" her (ok, I bought it, from them) another pillow pet, and various books from me and David and the boys.

In the afternoon, I went in to her classroom to read a story. Her best buddy H and Sofia had a great time hugging and mugging.

That Friday night we had Shabbos dinner at the principal's house! Saturday evening we were at our friends' and able to have candles in (gluten-free) cupcakes.

And today was the party. Laura and Lilie came up last night (David had taken Sam and Sofia down to CT to see his grandmother), so the kids had breakfast together and then we got out to the party, which once again was at her gymnastics place.

Party was a lot of fun. We had requested our favorite teacher from last year, plus this year's great teacher (a guy, whom my boys adore!). Had 9 girls including Sofia, and 4 boys including mine. A good size.

My favorite video - Sofia was SOOOO happy!

Ok, so he's kind'a goofy:

After the party, we got a quick bite, and then dropped David back at the Logan Express bus. He's off to California for more than a week. Boo hoo. I miss him.

But then we took the kids to the mall, because Laura had gotten Sofia a Build-a-Bear gift certificate. The girls got matching pink bears (with different outfits), Sam got a plain bear ('cause I said I would only spend $10 on each boy), and Micah splurged on an Owl with a Harry Potter costume (yes, he paid me back $20 when we got home! Having a little buyers remorse, but I hope he does enjoy the owl.).

We couldn't find a rental stroller, but managed to locate a shopping cart at Sears, and got plenty of odd looks as we wheeled around the Natick Collection. But it kept the girls corralled!
