Allie and Hunter: Happy 6th Birthday, Allie!

Allie's birthday was just a few days ago on April 13th. I know I say this every year, that she's growing up so fast, but really 6? It doesn't seem like 6 whole years have gone by. I'm so lucky to be able to stay at home with her and watch her grow up into a beautiful, smart, talented and loving little girl.

Brian always takes the day off for the kids birthdays, which I love that he does that. We get to spend the day together as a family celebrating. This year, we opened presents, and had cake before Allie went to school. She had several things to open, but I would have to say her 3 favorite gifts she got from Brian and I are a Lava Lamp for her bedroom, a funny book she loves Brian to read to her called Bad Kitty, and a trip to Build-A-Bear.

After Allie got out of school, we went to Build-A-Bear. She has wanted to go to this store for probably a year, but we just have never taken her. She was so excited. She looked at all her options and choose an "Alvin" from the Chipmunks movie. Prefect choice considering her party the next day was an Alvin and the Chipmunk party!
