Baby Gwen

The robot baby has been a good experience. Nina has been stressed out.

And that's basically all there is to it.

Babies = stress and extreme lack of sleep

She truly has been so good though. She barely sets Gwen down at all. 

6 years old

Oh my baby. Where is time going?

I am a horrible mother and not doing a birthday party this year for her.

She wanted a Minnie Mouse Birthday so we got a couple simple things and partied as a family.

We started the morning by helping to clean the church. We headed for a donut and came home for birthday cake pancakes and a pink fluffy surprise from Jay and Rachael. So loved!!!

We headed to Fly High and enjoyed a good time jumping, running, and mastering fear of heights!! JODY DID THE SKY OBSTACLE COURSE!!! And Ella and Eli too!!! Talk about Ella being a natural at figuring out how to do things physically. She has no fear!

We met up Papa, Manny, and Josh for dinner at Red Robin's. It was gross and Ella ended up vomiting all night. No joke.

She wanted an ice cream cake and so we all indulged!
Happy birthday sweet girl!! You light up our lives with your sassy, girly, kind, wonderful self!!!

Quote of the day from Ella, "When I was scared and looking down, I just said it's Ok... I believe in God."

Kindness Night

Our Kindness team and school counselor set up an amazing night of service at the school. It was Star Wars themed and everyone who came enjoyed it! I was in charge of Pictures with Yoda!

There was Jedi training! Nina and Maria were so very helpful!! Everyone at the school just loves them!!! So grateful that they are a part of the team!!

We did military care packages to a teacher's son who is in the marines.

Students painted tiles that is going to be a mural in the front of the school!

Fun night!! And very exhausted afterwards!! Nina ended up staying up until 11PM doing homework. Such a good girl to come help her mom when she had other equally important things to do.
