Build a Bear Birthday

Reese has fallen in LOVE with Build a Bear and decided she wanted to invite a few friends their for her birthday. Fortunately i made the cut:)

and Nanny too! Poppy was a few days away from having neck surgery so he had to sit this one out. She was pretty happy to have Landry and Elyse building a bear with her and since it was a small group they got to pick whatever they wanted. Score!

Cookie Bear even smells like a cookie...YUM!

After the bears were all built, dressed and ready to go we ate lunch in the mall before having...

BIRTHDAY CAKE!

Happy 5th Birthday Sweet Baby Girl!

Happy 5th Birthday Sweet Baby Reese

This birthday was harder on me then any so far..how in the world did she get to be FIVE years old! I suppose me turning 35 a few days later may have added to some of my dismay about this years birthdays. Regardless of my chagrin Reese is turning 5! One thing I know for sure, this little girl certainly never lacks in personality!

We had her birthday pictures taken and she put on even more of a show then last year for the camera. My sweet friend Missy took the pictures and Reese had a blast playing in all of her dress up clothes. Love this picture..

Reese has been wearing her hearing aids for one year now and has never even missed a beat at school. She takes dance classes and karate and loves them both. She LOVES to sing and is almost always belting out a song at the top of her voice...literally:)

I'm constantly amazed at the little lady Reese is growing into. She is one of the most perceptive and observant five year old's I know.

Sweeter then sweet when she wants to be and super duper sassy at times too...watch out world!  God has big plans for this girl!

Dear My Sweet Reese, I am proud to be your mom and thankful that God picked me for the job.
Happy 5th Birthday baby girl!
I  Love You!
Mommy

Until next year.....
