Early morning muffins from Scout, a bunch of presents waiting for her, roast for her chosen birthday dinner, and butter cake for dessert.
Happiest sixth birthday, to the happiest six year old girl!
You’ll never guess who got up at 4:00am to make birthday muffins for his little sis.
Look at how pitch black it was outside, when Pippi got her very first breakfast in bed, by an admirer.
Love the birthday candle Scout!
Time to go downstairs to eat those crumbly muffins!
Ummmm…we must have a lot of growing going on latey.
You know when your 12 year old boy polishes off half of a watermelon…then dives into bacon topped with ranch…something is amiss. I have had several talks with him about unhealthy eating, but his exhaustion level leads me to believe that there is some growing going on. The almost eye-level conversations, make me believe that I don’t have a little boy on my hands anymore. And I am crossing my fingers that my young man loves me as much as my boy did.
Katie Nichol is my saving grace this year! For the three times a week I am a bit late to grab Pips, I walk up to scenes like this — just a good friend reading to her daughter, and your own daughter! She is rad. And Sarah Chaing is there for the both of us when we are both late! I will admit that I have helped them a few times too….but the scale is definitely tipped to them being the bigger pinch hitters.
