Leah is 9!!!

Well she's officially halfway to adulthood! It's been a whirlwind of a birthday week. It stared last weekend with her friend party. She decided to do a roller skating party, just like Kiersten, because it allowed her to invite the most friends. Mark Mavis, Landon McGeorge, Luke Shuffitt, Alex Strong, Camryn White, Makenzie Robinson, Eleanor Short, Lucy Craig, Ella Phares and Audrey Brent all joined us for the afternoon. What a great group of kids!!! They enjoyed skating, pizza and cupcakes.

On her real birthday she had a class trip to Staerkel Planeterium over in Champaign. I would have gladly joined them but they didn't ask for chaperones. So that morning she had her birthday donut, and that night she got her traditional birthday ice cream cone. I wonder how many more years she will let us do that?!?! The next day I took her lunch at school...Dorito Tacos from Taco Bell!

On Mother's Day we had our family celebration with Gigi, Papa and the rest of the family. These girls are certainly spoiled and without a doubt growing up too fast. Happiest of birthdays, to the one who made me a mom!
