Callie Turns SIX

It's hard to believe my baby girl is SIX! Callie is such a joy and adds so much happiness into our little family! She is all things girly and sweet and loving.  She is always giving hugs and kisses and letting us know how much she loves us.  She is the best big sister to Graham and always makes sure he's taken care of.  She makes friends wherever she goes. She is obsessed with tumbling and is often doing cartwheels and hand stands and dance parties.  Love you Callie girl!

For her birthday, she wanted to forgo a party and go on a special date with me and Nate.  We got manicures and pedicures, went to dinner at a yummy restaurant, and then Callie got to go on a mini shopping spree. It was so fun to spend a whole evening having some quality time with her and I hope this is a new birthday tradition.

We went to Claire's and Bath and Body Works and Callie was in heaven.  All things girly and pink and feminine!

 We came home afterwards and had birthday cake with the rest of the kids (and their favorite babysitter Ellie).  We made Callie this barbie cake earlier in the day and had fun making it together.
