Well my little girl is not so little anymore-she is officially 10 years old today. Where oh where have the years gone??? And am I really that old to have a ten year old?!? Sometimes I think-ya and other times I think-I am not old enough to be the adult, but we don't tell her that part. Well my goal is instead of trying to catch up from everything that I have missed, I am just going to try and post when an event happens (and with my new computer it is sooooo much better, and easier) but anyway on to the CELEBRATIONS!!!
Bailee decided that for her friend party that she wanted to go to BUILD A BEAR WORKSHOP which we have never been to so I said alright. So because school was out Monday we decided that would be a great time to go. She got to invite only 6 friends plus her sister. Which in my opinion was the perfect number of girls. So here we are getting ready to stuff our animals, I gave them a price limit and then the girls could choose where they wanted to spend their money!
Bailee chose a bunny, we ranged from bears to bunnies & dogs.
Showing off her stuffed bunny!!
Running low on stuffing so we got to fill the machine!! That was pretty cool :-)
Getting ready to catch our hearts and give them some love. Got to kiss the heart and put them inside our animals!!
Each choosing a plaid heart, solid red heart or a heart that said "I love you"
Once it's stuffed and heart inside then you seal up the back and get to "wash and fluff" before picking out an outfit
Bailee picked out an outfit, a little wig and a cell phone for her bunny
Left to right: Mindy, Kaitlyn, Emma, Jocelyn, Hailey, Kenadee & Bailee
our group & what a great group of girls!!
Bailee's finished bunny in her cute little outfit!
Then after Build a Bear we headed back to our house to open presents, I am only posting one of the presents but she got some great stuff!
Singing and getting ready to chow down on cupcake and cake!!
The girls all had a cupcake and Bailee got the cake in the middle, then after she had a few bites she let the other girls help her devour the cake
Before:
After!
Morning of her BIRTHDAY-today!! That's why her hair isn't done, rule have clothes on ready for school before breakfast. Bailee had her whole day's menu picked out: breakfast-french toast, lunch: Subway (today at school was the birthday table, so I joined her for lunch) & dinner: hamburgers with cheesecake for dessert.
I made her wait to open presents until after dinner when her dad was home. So here she is before:
Halfway thru-capris and two shirts
A remote control helicopter, she has been asking for a puppy for her birthday so this is what she got instead. She has wanted one since Curtis got one for his birthday while we were in Hawaii-so she at least got something that she wanted!
Singing and blowing out candles before getting to enjoy the not so great looking-falling apart cheesecake. I have serious problems with making cheesecake, it just doesn't work for me, but it still tasted great!! So that is the birthday celebrations-Happy Birthday Bailee bug we love you very much and are so happy that you are a part of our family!!! LOVE YA
