Seven

Happy birthday to the sweet, beautiful, thoughtful middle child! 

Gosh, I love this girl.

 Rose decided to have an art party again.  When she turned 4 we did one at home.

This year we went to the Art Shop for Kids.

 

Each child chose a ceramic piece to paint, then after they dried, they were glazed and beautified.

 The party hostess said that there would be a ball pit to play in as well.  I thought, no one will want to play in that ball pit. that's sort of lame.

 

Boy was I wrong.

Happy Birthday to You!

 Always a slightly uncomfortable moment for Rose when people sing her the birthday song.

Silly Party Kids

 Mimi and Papa came and brought party glasses for everyone!

 I love this picture.

 Rose got the American Girl Caroline for her birthday.  They look alike.

 You know you're tiny when you can fit into an American Girl box...

 sort of.
