Our ever sweet and a little bit clumsy Evie Rose turned 6 this month. Evie has grown so much this year. She asserts her opinions a little more often than she use to. However, she is still one of our most easy going kids. She loves breakfast, sweets, Barbies, crafts, friends, school, P.E., and generally being silly. Today when a friends mom asked her what she wanted to be when she grows up she shrugged her shoulders and replied, "I don't know, a pig?" SILLY!!! Evie learned to ride her bike this year. She also learned to read and write her letters and her favorite parts of the day is sharing our bests and worsts at dinner and her story and video time with Daddy at the end of the day. We are so thankful for the sweetness that Evie brings into our lives.
Evie celebrated her birthday with chocolate chip cookies at school a day early as we didn't have school on her birthday this year.
On her birthday Evie had donuts for breakfast, opened her gifts (a locking bank and an ant farm), went to the library and Dutch Bros in the afternoon, and had pancakes for dinner. She had chosen ice cream cones as her dessert but even Evie has a limit and turns out that was just to many sweets even for her so we had to save that for Friday.
Birthday Ice Cream
Watching the ants build their tunnels in her new unicorn birthday jammies from Grammy. It was quite an adventure getting the ants into the ant farm. The instructions said to put them in the fridge for 10 minutes before trying to pour them in and we did that but then we pulled them out and had them on the counter for a minute or two not realizing how quickly they'd warm up. All that to say they were trying to climb out of the farm and kids were screaming and a few ants may have died in the process. One ant however just lost his "butt" much to Evie's delight. Daddy named him Bob and she of course being the silly thing she is spent the next 2 days checking on him and telling everyone about him. Apparently an ant can live 5 days without part of it's body. Who knew???? Bob only lived 2 so Evie's best on the night of her birthday party was her party and her worst was that Bob died. :) Shenanigans I tell you!

We love you Evie Rose!
Happy 6th Birthday!
