Andi turned 6 on Friday, and we celebrated a full birthday week this year. The Sunday before her birthday we had family dinner at my brothers and had cake and presents for Andi & Bradon. Andi's birthday is the day after Bradon's so we always have a joint party for them.
Friday was her actual birthday, so we started the day with birthday pancakes.
My mom brought over birthday donuts a little later in the morning. Just so you know any food automatically becomes "birthday" food if you stick a candle in it. Saturday was her friend party. This year Andi wanted a Magic Treehouse party. She has been reading the books for a while now and absolutely loves them. So we planned some activities that incorporated the books like hatching dinosaur eggs(popping balloons), solving riddles, going on a treasure hunt, and they had a great time. Here is the whole gang after they turned Wyatt into a mummy.
And blowing out more candles.
Saturday night we went to Rosemary's and since she is six now, she ordered for herself. I have been hearing a lot of that this week. "I'm six now so I can do (fill in the blank)." "Six year olds can do that by themselves." Sunday night we had dinner with Thads family to celebrate all the January birthdays and she got to blow out more candles and open more presents. And today she got to go to lunch and shopping with Grandma Bulkeley to spend her birthday money. I believe the celebrations are finally complete and that her birthday has been sufficiently recognized for the year ;)
In other pretty huge news, we bought a house this week. We have been looking for months and months and last weekend we found the one. We are more than a little excited, and have big plans for our new place. At least I do. Thad's main priority is getting some big trees in the back yard, but I've got lists. Long, exciting lists ;) We are supposed to close mid February, so cross your fingers it goes smoothly.
This picture has nothing to do with anything, other than these are the diaper ninja masks Thad introduced the kids too.
