I am 27 years old and have a 6year old little girl!!! I feel so old!!! Ellie turned 6 on Friday the 5th. She has been looking forward to her birthday since like last year when she turned 5.. Ellie had a ballerina cake. We had the grandparents over for cake and gifts then loaded up to head to Sioux falls for the weekend.
Saturday morning we went to the zoo. My mom has a family pass with the girls on it so we decided it would be a fun way to celebrate Ellie's birthday some more. The girls were there when Nolan was born but there weren't very many animals out, but this time we saw all the animals. It also happened to be Hy-Vee days at the zoo so we got free food!! The girls liked the giraffes and the turtles and the flamingos the best. I was taking a picture of the big tortoises they have and made the mistake of calling them a turtle.. Ellie, being the smarty pants 6 year old that she is now, corrected me and said they aren't turtles they are tortoises!
After the zoo we chilled at my parents til 6, then we headed out to take some family pictures done by our friend, Denae Matherly! The girls did a great job and smiled and Nolan wasn't fussy at all. I'm excited to see how they all turn out. Then we headed to Pizza Ranch for supper then it was back to my parents to bed.
Sunday we went to church and then had some yummy lunch. We hung out for awhile, but then headed back home. Sunday's are nice days to just relax!
It was a good weekend, but i'm tired.. Nolan had a bit of a cold this weekend and wasn't able to sleep very well for a few nights, so that meant I wasn't sleeping well either. I'm hoping he sleeps better since he is sounding better! This week is the week I guess I break down and buy school supplies since that is looming over our heads.
Hope everyone has a blessed week!
