Karis turned 5 on Monday. It sounds cliche, but we are amazed that she has grown so fast. The time truly flies. This first picture is at the end of the day. She had enough cake left from earlier in the day that she could share some with all the kids at life group. It also gave us the opportunity to sing to her and watch her blow out the candles. 
This is Karis proudly displaying the "High School Musical" cake that she picked out. We didn't plan a birthday party since we didn't know when the baby will be here. So, she got to take her cake to day care. They sang to her twice. The plastic locker on the cake held "HSM" stickers that she shared "with all the kids that listened," as she said. 
Close-up of the cake. Sorry for the long shadow. I took the picture in the back of the SUV so that Sue could see the cake before it was cut. We picked it up on the way to day care. On another note, this is the first time Ben has done a blog entry. I needed to learn how to do it so I can announce the baby in the next few days. How'd I do?

Great job on the blog, Ben. :-) And Happy belated Birthday to Karis! I've been thinking of the entire Newman family often and will hope little baby Newman comes soon. Can't wait to see updates! I've been wanting to call lately, but as you say... time flies and before I know it, it's almost 11:00 and time for bed. Take care!!
Karis, Happy Belated Birthday! You have grown up so much! We miss y'all, but it's really great keeping with you on the blog. Love you!
