(or, as Im sure you surmised, as wordless as this overly verbose blogger can get.)
Im living not blogging about life today.
We are recovering from this one turning 5 yesterday:
This is how she kicked-off her celebration.
Id totally forgotten Id once told her she could do that as soon as she was five
She did not forget.
And *today* we are getting ALL KINDS of ready for Hanukkah tonight.
(cue mass donut-making)
Want some reading on your Wordless Wednesday?
I give you a MizFit Hanukkah.
Please to (re-)enjoy.

Ryan @NoMoreBacon says
December 1, 2010 at 6:56 amI love that the gum was “orange” flavored. I couldn’t see the writing on the package but my guess is wintergreen?
Happy Happy Birthday Tornado!

charlotte says
December 1, 2010 at 7:56 amHappy 5th Birthday Tornado! And Happy 5th Anniversary of the Day You Became a Mom, Miz:) Also? I’m amazed that she never got gum before her 5th bday! I use it (the sf stuff) to bribe my kids to learn to brush their teeth… I kinda failed parenting 101
Jody - Fit at 53 says

Dr. Fat to Fit says
December 1, 2010 at 10:12 amHappy Birthday to your cutie pie. I had a little chickie turn 5 yesterday too! She was so happy and excited. It was all, “You have to be nice to me because I’m the birthday girl.” She had one cupcake and she was crazy at bedtime. Both my little girls, 5 and 6 were. They are a mess. A joyful mess, but mess just the same.
The gum thing cracked me up. Isn’t it funny the things they remember. You have to really watch what you promise.
Shelley B says
December 1, 2010 at 10:20 amShe is so cute! Glad you had such a fun day enjoying your birthday girl. And Happy Hanukkah!
melissa @ the delicate place says
December 1, 2010 at 10:43 amhaha bet she had a blast! happy hanukkah!
Terrie says
December 1, 2010 at 10:49 amThanks for sharing your Hanukkah with us.
I have always been curious how people celebrate and missed that post initially.
Happy Hanukkah.
Karen says
December 1, 2010 at 11:52 amMy husband and teen eat latkes with ketchup. But usually only when no one beside our immediate family is around. I never got the applesauce thing. Sour cream at least makes some sense to me. And we never did the donut thing growing up. But chocolate gelt is a big tradition here:) Happy Hanukkah.
Alexia says
December 1, 2010 at 12:04 pmHahahaha. Of course she remembered!

Happy birthday, Tornado!!!!!!
Susan EB Schwartz says
December 1, 2010 at 3:26 pmSo adorable! What a great way to celebrate the first day of Chanukah and its many blessings.
Thea @ I'm a Drama Mama says
December 1, 2010 at 3:30 pmHappy Birthday to The Tornado! My 5 year old likes Trident gum…she gets a whole piece but the pieces are smaller so she doesn’t feel like she has a big ol’ wad of stuff in her mouth. She loves Watermelon.
AND HAPPY HANUKKAH!
Kelly Happy Texan says
December 1, 2010 at 3:40 pmShe is too cute. Growing up too quickly she is.
Hope y’all have a wonderful Hanukkah. I’ll be over for a donut later. And a latke please. 🙂
messymimi says
December 1, 2010 at 4:10 pmMany happy returns of the day to your precious Tornado, and a blessed Hanukkah to all!

December 1, 2010 at 7:45 pmI’m just realizing that she shares a birthday with my stepdaughter, who turned 25 and who will be having a child of her own come April. A boy 🙂
Happy Hanukkah to you and yours!!
Oh, and yet another photo that shows those kind eyes of hers!
Janell says
December 1, 2010 at 8:25 pmI haven’t watched the video yet because from home my connection is sloooow.
But wanted to say Happy Happy birthday. She looks fantastically adorable in that photo.
