McKenna turned 6 today!! I cannot believe how quickly my little girl is growing up - I could just cry!! This morning, she came running into our room, hopped up on the bed and said, "Mom, look how big my hands are now that I'm six!!"
She opted out of a friend party this year, and we decided to go on a family vacation instead. All she asked for her birthday this year was "glue nails", a hula hoop and getting her ears pierced - wow!! I think we can handle that!
One of my favorite pics of her when she was 6 months old
Since it was a family party, I decided to bake the cake this year..this is the first cake I have made for a birthday since her 1st birthday - not too shabby huh?!? And notice the fake nails! We had cake and ice cream twice - once with cousins (Collin, Cosette and Christopher) and then with grandma/grandpa Bean that night! McKenna has been such a GREAT daughter and we love having her in our family! She is energetic and always willing to go on an adventure with her dad (she is a daddy's girl). She loves riding bikes, just learned to roller blade and hula hoop, and really likes swimming! She is a great help with Tyler and is a great wrestling partner for Harrison...although I don't know how much longer that will last...we just love her and hope she knows how special she is to us!!
