Happy 6th Birthday, Lexie!!!

Our sweet girl turned 6 today!!!

It is very hard to believe that she's 6 already! I say it every birthday, but only because it's true: Time FLIES!

I feel so blessed to call her my daughter.  I thank God for putting her into my life every single day.  I am so lucky to be her mom!!!

Lexie is the perfect blend of sweet and sassy.  She can be the most loving, affectionate child, but she also has this incredibly strong spirit.  I love my baby girl with all my heart.

Lexie woke up feeling very tired.  I'm not quite sure she even noticed the 6 giant balloons in her room!

It didn't take her long to wake up and realize it was her special day!

It definitely helped that she had a birthday donut for breakfast and got to open a present!

I drove Lexie, Dylan, and their friend, Jack, to school, then ran home to bake a birthday cake!  As soon as the cake came out of the oven, I had to run back to Lexie's school to take in her birthday snack!

Her class sang to her, then enjoyed some cookies.  I wish I had snapped a few more pictures, because Lexie looked SO happy!

I left Lexie's school and ran to a doctor appointment, so my friend, Amber, picked her up from school.  I met them at her house, and we went to Build-A-Bear so Lexie could make her first stuffed animal.  It was a really great, thoughtful gift from Amber!

After Build-A-Bear, we stopped at Burger King so the kids could eat and play in the indoor playground.  Our last stop was at a local bakery before heading home!

Once home, Lexie had a snack and watched a show.

She got to open another birthday present!

It wasn't long before this happened...

After a long nap, we left for Lexie's birthday dinner.   Lexie chose McDonald's, so we met Grant there after he was done with work.  The kids enjoyed their happy meals and milkshakes!

We headed back home so Lexie could open the rest of her presents.

We headed over to a friend's house so they could enjoy some birthday cake with us!

The kids played for a bit before we headed back home.

That evening, Lexie decided she was going to have a sleepover in our room.  It doesn't happen often, so we allowed her!

My sweet baby girl had an awesome birthday!  We are so proud of her and love her more than words can say.  She may be 6 now, but she will always be our baby girl!!!

  5. looks like such a fun Birthday. She is beautiful.. time goes so fast. My son will be 10 this year and I'm 99% sure I'm going to break down in tears on the day he turns double digits. It makes me so sad to realize he'll never ever be in single digits again. :(
