Six going on Sixteen!!



Mckayla just recently turned six. She has been waiting for this blessed day to arrive. She was so excited to have her birthday. When the day came, a special breakfast awaited her. Daddy had gotten up at 5:30 in the morning, and went to the doughnut shop so that she could have a doughnut for her birthday breakfast. For those that do not know, Mckayla was born on mom's birthday. So not only was dad getting doughnuts for her, but for mom as well. I am quite impressed that Matt was able to sneak out of the bedroom without me noticing. I am a pretty light sleeper, so it was quite a feet for Matt to accomplish this suprise.

After kindergarten, Mckayla wanted to go to Mcdonald's for lunch, and do what we did with Isaiah the week before. So we packed all the gifts, and cupcakes for the big celebration.
This birthday has been really special, because Grandma Ryan came out to celebrate all our birthdays with us. We had so much fun spending time with her.


Here is Mckay opening her birthday gifts!



If you haven't notice Mckayla absolutely loves the Disney princess's, and is always wanting to dress up like them. Since last christmas she has been asking for the Belle dress. She finally got her wish. Of course it is not complete unless you have the crown, wand & shoes.

After opening her gifts she blew out her candle.


Here is Mckay modeling her new dress!

Later that evening Mckay had dance class, then we let her pick out a movie at the video store, and her and Isaiah got to lay on mom & dad's bed to watch the show.

Here are the birthday girls!

Tid bits about Mckayla. She is very creative. Daily she asks me to do a craft, paint or draw. I can barely keep up with her, especially since I lack on the creative side. I see so much of my mom in her. They are like two peas in a pod. In fact, while my mom was here visiting the two of them spent hours doing crafts together. Mckayla was in heaven! Mckalya loves to dress up. She loves to beautify herself, and then look at herself in the mirror. Oh boy, I think we are in trouble. She is all girl. She loves to wear make-up, and paint her finger and toe nails. She is also in to Barbie. This fall she found that she loves playing soccer. She really did well, and enjoyed learning a new sport. She also loves swimming. She is definitely a fish when it comes to swimming. I love this little girls heart. She really does try to do what is right. She is always thinking and pondering what we have taught, and really tries to implement it all. She is such a good big sister, and loves her brothers unconditionally. She is a good helper, and example to all around her. I feel so blessed to have her in my home, and to watch her grow. She blesses my life on a daily basis, and I am so thankful for her.
Happy Birthday Mckay!!

Happy Birthday to both of you. Of course Makayla would get a princess costume for her birthday. Whenever I picture Makayla I picture her in a princess dress-it's so fitting! :)
