Happy birthday, P

Our baby is 6 and for some reason, 6 is hitting SO much harder than 5. She truly feels like a big kid now, and Iโ€™m constantly in this mode of wanting to freeze time while simultaneously loving to see these babies grow into such amazing and fun kids.

Some things about our now 6-year old:

– Sheโ€™s always ready for a snuggle, and I call her my baby koala. If I had a pouch, sheโ€™d let me carry her around in there all dayโ€ฆ and I would love it.

– Sheโ€™s our little engineer and can build or create anything. Itโ€™s not unusual for her to have tape, scissors, glue, and paper, crafting or making some type of contraption, or building elaborate Lego sets. When sheโ€™s in Lego mode, I canโ€™t even go near her until sheโ€™s gone through the entire book and built the whole thing by herself.

– Our little comedian; sheโ€™s constantly cracking us up with silly voices and facial expressions. Her Zingo victory dance is a gold star, let me tell ya.

– Her favorite foods are avocado toast, poke bowls, scrambled eggs, and sushi.

– This kid is full of hip hop dance moves, soccer dribbling, and can ride a horse better than most kids twice her age. She loves animals and they always seem to love her back.

– She has such inherent goodness in her heart and is always bursting with joy. The first 6 months her life were filled with the most painful and horrifying reflux, and we think that once she realized how great she feels when she doesnโ€™t have reflux, sheโ€™s been the happiest little goose ever since.

– Sheโ€™s super smart and very sillyโ€ฆ and watching her and Liv play together is one of my favorite favorite things.

We had her birthday party this weekend (on the Pilotโ€™s actual birthdayโ€ฆ sorry Pilot haha) and are celebrating her all day today ๐Ÿ™‚ Her party was at TRAK (horse rides, petting zoo, face painter) and we had a blast celebrating with friends and family. It was a double celebration, because the Pilotโ€™s birthday dinner was at our house later that evening. For dinner tonight, she requested, โ€œThe place where they light the table on fire and cook your foodโ€ so thatโ€™s where weโ€™ll be. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Have a lovely day, friends! Iโ€™ll see ya in the am with a full post on my experience using Nutrisense.

    Happy Birthday to P and the Pilot! We had a similar scenario for our daughter’s birthday! Her birthday is May 28, but we had a party on the 15th, my husband’s actual birthday. I was pregnant with our 2nd and she was due May 30, but decided to make her debut on May 22! May is going to be a very busy month for us lol!
