We went to library and checked out some birthday books and played a bit, then Grandma & Grandpa got her and they had a special day together at mall. (Mackinna's wish) She wanted to eat lunch in the food court and then go to Claire's to pick out a bracelet. She had her first ever chicken nugget happy meal and Mom told her the people at the restaurant gave her the little toy because she stayed in her bed all night last night. She really just wanted the french fries; she only ate one nugget- she probably thought they tasted funny because I feed her morningstar chick n nuggets at home. She got all kinds of little goodies at Claire's then came home and played with Grandma & Grandpa in the playroom then took a little nap on Grandpa's lap.
Then it was time for her birthday dinner. She requested mac n cheese and boycotted the salad. I didn't fight it since it was her birthday. She ate the biggest piece of icecream cake of us all (at a remarkably slow pace). Uncle Robby and Sarah came over too. Sarah brought her some Clifford books- which Mackinna made her read (all four). She modeled her new matching raincoat & rain boots for everyone, and said she was going to name her fish "Uncle Matt the fish" We'll see if that sticks.
It was already after bedtime when we noticed the mailman had brought her a package, but we let her open it anyway, and it ended up being a great way to end her special day. Uncle Matt & Aunt Kate sent her the most wonderful stuff, she was more excited with each thing she opened. She got princess silverware, plate, bowl & cup and a Cinderella nightgown, brush & sunglasses. Mark set her place for breakfast with her new stuff so that it was all ready for her in the morning. She was really thrilled.
