Little Bit turns 6!

We had planned a big trip for Little Bit’s 6th bday.

We were going to see family and rv for two weeks but all that changed of course with the virus.

We went to Stuart Park near Gilcrease Museum since it is not somewhere we usually go and therefore felt different and little more special. She was just excited to dress up in lots of frills. Love that smile. If her birthday had a theme it would have been koala’s and Egypt.

She is pretty obsessed with both.

After cake and presents she wanted to do a water balloon fight.She then proceeded to run away screaming for most of it…At least all the big kids had fun 😉

My life is sweeter with him in it.

My second oldest just turned 10 yesterday and to celebrate we went camping.

We left Friday and got back yesterday so about 5 days.

He is my walking encyclopedia of dinosaurs so we went to Dinosaur Valley State Park.

I love that he knows the creationist view on dinosaurs also.

He knows more than I do for sure.

I am always learning new facts from him.

He will play all by himself in the dirt with just a few rocks for hours.

He thinks up games to play with clouds while we drive.

He is so easy to please.

I am glad I got to see his excited smile so much the last few days.

Happy Birthday.

You make life sweeter.

Last Day as 7yr olds!

We went on a week-long RV trip to the Palo Duro Canyon last week so I did not post a pic of the twins for their bday!

I did remember to take pics on their last day of being seven though!

This one does not like that she is the younger twin.

Even if it is only by a little bit.

Ha

Her nose crinkle is my favorite.

And her genuine smile.

It is breathtaking.

My oldest girl.

She asked me what I did with her sister for pics the whole time…

She was torn between really wanting pics like her sister and not wanting to miss out on what anyone else was doing.

Pretty much our day in a nutshell 🙂

Her personality always seems to come through in pics…

These girls are teaching me what grace truly means.

Birthday’s are hard for them although each one seems to be better than the last.

If you did not know this, birthday’s, holidays, etc. can be really difficult for adoptees.

It is all at once happy and sad.

Sometimes my patience fails but I think overall they had a good day.

Filled with cake, presents, and pizza(their request, which can be tough when in a new place with their allergies but we found a place! Yes, we said NO CHEESE on the pizza. Ha).
