It’s hard to believe that it’s been 10 months since we met this little guy. He sure has come a long long way. He still doesn’t really like me, but I do get some really random hugs which is super nice. HE had so much fun at his party. Was all sorts of confused waking up from his nap to a house full of people. But he LOVED smashing his pinata. 🙂

Kaylee’s 7th birthday party
Kaylee wanted a science themed party. She loves math and science. "Mom we can just do some experiments and you don't even have to decorate!"
WHAT?!?! It's like she doesn't even know me.
I told her I loved the party theme, but that she would have to deal with decorations. I made a bunch of banners using periodic elements to spell everything out. She LOVED it!
Due to an unfortunate bee situation our front door was not accessible. Good times…..
And here we have the lab queen herself. She was killing me with her cuteness. She did her own "crazy busy science girl hair" by then end of the party it was a bigger hot mess. LOVED it!
Baking soda and vinegar to blow up balloons.
Some cornstarch and water for a little Non-Newtonian Fluid fun. They were t this longer than I expected. I forget how fun this stuff is.
We had TANG because it's all sciencey and stuff. Astronaut drink and all. Plus it yummy. And some super yummy (guests said so) dairy/egg free chocolate cupcakes.
And of course coke and mentos. I got baby coke bottles for each child. They all really like getting to do their own. Jon got some really fun footage on the GoPros.
I went to check on the epic disaster of cornstarch and water fun. WOW. They had fun.
Kaylee conducted the birthday song this year. I was cracking up.
Her requested beaker pinata lasted threw all the kids. Uncle Josh helped her finish it off in the end.
I LOVE this shot of Owen. Great form!
This purple dress fro Yaiyai was two years in the making. Kaylee had very specific requests in her dream purple sparkly dress in that it needed to be pretty, sparkly, but still soft and not itchy. She was beyond thrilled.
She had fun popping balloons from her friends. "I'm so rich now!" Ha!
I tell her she has an elf ear. She has and ear that has an extra cartilage ridge that form a capitol E and it's a bit pointed at the top. She has taken to working on projects in the garage and has her own mini workshop. So we got her some proper sized tool and gear. She was SO happy to have tools that are real and fit her little hands.
Later that night after everything was cleaned up I got to hold my not so little anymore girl while relaxing on the couch. She passed out and I was near tears that it was my last time holding her as a six year old. I am such a big baby. For the past six months I've been telling her to just stop growing. Her response is always the same, "I can't stop. Just talk to Jesus about it." Hard to argue with that huh?
When you share a buddy
Kaylee and Regan are usually pretty good about sharing their claim on miss Gilli. Gilli is pretty great at all activities.
But sometimes Regan has to just man up and go with the girly flow. Because she is his buddy and invited him to her princess tea party.
And you know what? Tea parties are super fun!
Also swimming with bow water guns. Because balance in all things. 🙂
They were cracking me up with their happy dances while Gilli opened her gifts. And I did actually remember to bring them their safe cupcakes. Mom win! Little Monkey girl had to just be content with a chew toy.
