Bailey Turns Seven

Another successful birthday has come and gone. The guests have left and the mess is cleaned up. Balloons have been popped and the wrapping paper is in the recycle bin. The sugar high has past and every present has been played with. Tired eyes are looking at me, I guess it's bed time. My little girl is seven.

Tidbits

I'm sitting here watching the leaves fall from the trees. It lets me know that I should be preparing for the snow that can fall anytime now and how little time I have to do it in. The coats need to be taking out and tried on to make sure they fit for another year. As well as the snowpants and boots. I have a feeling this year that I'm going to have to buy Riley and Bailey new outfits. Hopefully the weather will hold for a bit.
Bailey's 7th birthday is coming up in a couple of weeks. She's wants a party and I'll have to think about what do to. She wants to invite all the girls in her class. That's about ten screaming girls. I'll have to self medicate that day.
Our new kitchen is now completed. It was ten days of pure turmoil. Even though it took so long to be finished, the guys did a great job. I'm sure there are going to be many days where we can be in the kitchen cooking as a family.
Bella received Star of The Week at school today. She got it for being a great and kind friend to all of the kids in her class. Being Star of The Week means there is a phone call home and she gets to take home a certificate and a treat. She's going to be so excited when I go and pick her up today after school. What a babe.
