Happy Happy birthday to the first little girl that made me a mom! I can't believe she is already 9! In some ways it seems life never existed without her but at the same time that just yesterday she was born. She is so into rocks right now. Kimber asked what she liked and then found her some geodes that she would actually have to break apart herself so the minute they arrived in the mail she of coarse had to break them open.
Her birthday fell on a Wednesday this year but luck would have it that she woke up in the night not feeling well and running a fever. She stayed home from school and helped me with Emy while I went to the Dr. They stayed with Matt at his office since I had an OB appt. As long as she had medicine in her she felt and acted fine but once it wore off the fever would come back and she felt crappy.
She did at least like her birthday decor.
On the way home from the Dr. we stopped at Smiths and Hallie was wanting a doughnut and little did we know she would find one as big as her but it was the one she wanted so we got it. She was happy to share with her sisters so it was a good deal for everyone
That night after Gracie's gymnastics, per Hallie's request, we had dinner at Pizza Pie Cafe with Joy. After getting our fill of pizza, pasta, salad, and even a birthday skookie we headed home to open presents. She received a certificate to go to lunch and a pedicure with Joy, a science set from Gracie, a jog suit, shoes, and books. She was pretty thrilled with how the day had gone.
The next couple days she still fevered on and off but was in good spirits. She missed school Wed and Thursday so Matt took her to school Friday to take treats to her class and stop for breakfast. When I asked her what she wanted to do for her birthday she said to have a play date with Paige, Rigs, and Kinners. Since her birthday was the middle of the week Nic made plans to bring the kids up Friday after school so that s when we planned for cake and ice cream. She said she loved it since it had been her birthday all week.
She requested rainbow chip cake and frosting
Matt was also able to take Hallie on a date Saturday morning to go mini golfing and to lunch. They had a great time.
Happy birthday beautiful girl...you are such a blessing in our lives
