i'm six!!

Today my oldest is officially six years old! She is growing into a very sweet little girl who loves school, plays well (ok, most of the time anyways...) with her brother and sister, enjoys helping me out around the house, will choose a cherry tomato over chocolate (!!), and just this past week learned to ride her bike without training wheels!

This is her last night at her little birthday party. She seems so big now - especially when I look back at this picture....

This is before I came. She was so cute and chubby!! :) And it's funny to think that one of those two teeth on the bottom there is now missing! :)

Reegan came over last night to help us celebrate. We had given her this Tinkerbell T-shirt for her birthday last monday and what my kids didn't know was that I had shirts for each of them too! My middle child loves Ariel and the two older girls enjoyed matching with their Tinkerbell shirts.

Mommy got a cool pirate hat for the baby to wear! Here he is trying to figure out the whole string below his chin thing.... :)

Once again, Mommy set a beautiful party table!

The kids got to each make their own pizza to share and we made a couple extras for the adults to eat that hadn't been touched by children's hands. :}

This is Wendy's brother, Steve. He stopped in Knoxville for a few days on the way home to Arizona from a business trip and was here to help celebrate. In this picture he is being a good uncle and leading the kids in banging their hands on the table and saying, "WE WANT CAKE!! WE WANT CAKE!!" My baby for some reason calls Steve "Sir" which we all got a kick out of.

Gary, my kids grandmother, got a very special present on her birthday six years ago today - a granddaughter! We celebrate both birthdays together. They are waiting together while everyone sings to them.

Then they both wished. Very hard.

And blew out all the candles!

There were some very lovely presents - including this beautiful Tinkerbell nightgown from Reegan, Lauren, and Catrina.

The birthday girls!

My kiddos with their Uncle Steve. I think they all had a blast! Great party, Mommy! :) And Happy Birthday TCR!!
