And then she was 6! It made me sad to think of my baby growing up so fast, she's reading, writing, playing games, and is her own little unique person with the funniest personality. She is into all things arts/crafts, she loves soccer, watching Inside Out, going to Kindergarten, playing with friends, arm wrestling her big brother, sleeping with her big sister, she likes to eat salmon, spinach, olives, and cucumbers, and CANDY. She is such a sweet little girl, we LOVE her more than anything! She had a very busy party, it rained on the day of her party, so it got moved indoors, complete with a face painter, Halloween craft, musical toenails, colored hairspray stations. It was total chaos, but everyone helped make it just perfect for her. Nana was able to come down for the weekend and join the fun, and Jason got some amazing pictures...please note, there was no guidance given to the face painters, so they just painted what the girls picked, so some look a little creepy...yes, Annie and Gwyn are both vampires with blood dripping from their mouths!
This little firecracker is Annie's bestie:
Jacob was in charge of the hairspray station, this girl had the lightest hair you could imagine, needless to say, she'll probably never come over to our house again.
I almost didn't recognize my precious boy!
Brian made Annie's Halloween Party cake...Annie is dressed up in her Mack costume from Teen Beach 2 (which she will be for Halloween).
This picture was taken on her actual birthday, which started off with 6 donuts!
She wrote her own birthday party invite list, ha!
Donuts and candles!
Her first cookie cake of the day, I brought it up for a treat for her class.
Her 2nd cookie cake of the day, we had that with Jason after dinner the night of her birthday:
One happy girl, eating at McCormick's for her favorite meal: SALMON AND SPINACH! I kid you not, Jacob thinks she's crazy, you're picking that????
Just wanted to document what the term, "Go put on nice clothes" means to my two boys...Brian does look very nice. Jacob has his ball cap turned around backwards, a collared Under Armor shirt, crazy shorts, high superman socks, and his just-brand-new-2-months-ago shoes that look like he's had them for 3 years.
Singing to Annie again!!
In other news...Gwyn lost another tooth!
Pumpkin decorating!!! I can't get over how beautiful this is going to be after I finish, I can't stop doing it, and it takes so long!!
The girls:
I love that Gwyn made this one a February 7th one, she was born on that day and is 7 years old:
Nana was also born on that day and she wrote 61 years old, but Nana quickly made her scratch that out and put 59, ha!
Brian's Chewbacca!
Jacob's weird little guy:
Annie and Jacob had their well care check ups and their flu shots together. Here they are arm wrestling to pass the wait time.
My two gymnastics monkeys:
I love that Gwyn wrote this note to Annie...love that they love each other!
Our girl:
Things the kids said this week:
Annie (after Nana and Papa gave her an itouch): I'm never gonna lose this baby!
