six years old!

Where does the time go? Today Mackenzie celebrated the big "6".  Didn't I just bring home a little peanut that was the size of one of Daddy's shoes? My little blue eyed baby has sprouted into an amazing girl. This years interests include: horses, dance, science esp lizards, drawing and crafts. She is now beginning to read books and enjoys reading to us at bedtime.. She loves Dr. Seuss especially green eggs and ham and the foot book.
She weighs 55 lbs and is in the 85% for weight. She is 47 1/4 inches tall and is in the 80% for height.

  Mackenzie had decided months ago that she wanted an American girl doll for her birthday. She scoped the catalog everyday showing me which doll she wanted and what outfits she liked. So I decided to have an American girl theme for the party. Her birthday fell on a Wednesday this year so we made it an after school party with her friends. The guests: Abby, Kesang and Nicole. We made American girl jewelery and mini purses. Then the girls had fun playing and being silly. We ended the afternoon with cupcakes and presents. After all the presents were opened I pulled out one big box for Mackenzie to open. It was her doll who is now known as Josie. She spent the rest of the evening putting on her different outfits and brushing her hair.
