Princess Ladybug turned 5 earlier this month. Wow! I cannot believe it! The day after her birthday, we spent the day in Chicago, with Gramma and Nana & Papa. The girls spent a few hours at American Girl Place, while the boys went to the Lego store and a few other places. Princess Ladybug had a great time, along with her Bitty Twins, Nella & Bella.

On her birthday, we just had a family dinner followed by cake. I made this adorable Tinkerbell Purse cake. I was quite proud of how it turned out.

The special birthday crown was made special for Princess Ladybug by her loving big brother, Karate Chopper.
