Adelie is Six!

Today was Adelie's birthday and she turned six. She was so excited for today she could hardly stand it (I love the excitement kids get for their birthdays and holidays). She had a fun-filled day. In the morning she requested her favorite eggs (scrambled), toast, and chocolate milk. So that morning Brett got up and fixed her breakfast. After she was done eating she opened her gifts from us - all except for her biggest gift. She got a bunch of swimming toys, lip gloss and fingernail polish, pajamas, and fake nails. I think the fake nails were her most favorite gift of all. Whytli was really cute and wrapped her up a gift that she made by herself. She did a cute little card and gathered some random things from her room and gave them to her. I threw in a new jump rope so it looked like she had something new as well. I can't believe she is already six! She has gotten so big and I want her to know that I love her and hope she had a wonderful 6th birthday!

I've never seen such a big smile when she opened her fake nails. She has always talked about how she would love to have long beautiful nails so I thought it would be fun for her to get fake nails to put on for her birthday. Luckily the package came with 40 nails so being the kind sister she is, she let Whytli wear some too. I didn't get a picture of them wearing them but they sure did love them!

Later that afternoon I took the girls to get their toenails painted. They sure thought that was fun.

Mallory was so little her feet couldn't even touch.

Everyone at the salon thought they were all so cute!

The finished product! Don't they look beautiful?

Afterward I got them kids meals at Wendys and we went to my moms in her back yard and ate it there. The kids played with their cousins for a while.

Sooo pooped after such a full day! They all sat down for a moment while we were waiting for Brett to come home to go do some more stuff and they all fell asleep on the couch. When Brett got home we took Adelie to pick out her big gift which was a brand new bike. She had a hard time deciding but we finally narrowed it down to one. I didn't get a picture of her new bike but she sure loves it!

After we got the bike we headed to Two Jacks for pizza (per Adelie's request) and then to Macey's for ice cream (also her request).

After dinner we went to look at a couple of houses (since our house is up for sale) and she wasn't too excited about that. But when we got home they went for a bike ride and she had fun riding on her new bike. Then when the day was finally over she said to us, "this was the best birthday ever - even if we had to go look at houses!" We thought that was pretty funny.
