Avery turned seven in December and I can not believe it! Seven seems SO old because now she is almost eight which means she will be getting baptized! I know I am jumping the gun a little, but it seems so weird that I will have a kid old enough to be baptized. When did that happen? It makes ME feel old! Anyways, back to the birthday girl. Here are 7 facts about my baby girl:
1. She is ALL girl. She comes home from school every day and puts on my high heels and wears them the rest of the day. She loves to do makeup, paint her nails, and dress up. Everything she owns MUST be PINK and glittery! :)
2. She is a home body. She is taking ballet and piano (which she loves) but says that she doesn't like either of them because she can't stay home after school and has to go to her lessons. She would be happy playing school all day long in her room and never leave if she didn't have to.
3. She picked French Dip sandwiches and squishy squash (zucchini) for her favorite birthday meal
4. She loves Barbie movies
5. Avery is a really good big sister and plays house with Alivia all the time. She also begs to have Alivia sleep in her room every night. They giggle in bed and read stories together. It is so sweet!
6. Avery adores her daddy and loves to go on dates
7. Avery wants to be an artist, ballerina, and teacher when she grows up
Seven is Heaven! We sure love you Avery Jane!
We had a night owl pajama party for Avery and it was SO much fun. The girls were a blast and acted just like girls should at a PJ party :) We danced, sang, giggled, ate, and had a blast!
Avery helped me make the invites
I made each of the girls an owl. This was my favorite part of the party. Once I got the hang of it, I had so much fun making these guys. When my mom came to visit she brought me some fabrics scraps and look what we were able to create! I kind of had a hard time giving them away because I spent so much time on them and loved them with all their quirks and imperfections :)
Each girl was given an adoption card with their owl and named it. The names that they came up with were really cute. Avery named hers Blossom and some of the others I remember were Delilah, Chocolate, and Pinkie Pie.
opening presents from her grandmas. An american girl doll from Grandma Cindi which she adores and names Emily, an owl towel (can you just hear her saying "hooo hooo"), and a Barbie fairy secret doll (she loves this movie). We are so lucky to have such awesome grandmas!
Happy Birthday!
