Ladies and gentleman, we have a 7 year old! Cadence has grown into quite a little lady. She's reading very well and is doing excellent in math. This past school year, she participated in some after school art classes as well as piano lessons. We're still trying to figure out if she wants to continue with either when 2nd grade begins in the fall. I recently just had some of her artwork framed to put up in the house -- she's that good! She loves riding her scooter and mustered up the courage to get back on her bike. When she first got her bike, she fell off and that scared her away from riding for a while! She's able to swim across the pool without her Puddle Jumper and likes to go after diving sticks and such at the bottom of the pool. She still loves to sing and has become less interested in the "baby" shows on the Disney channel. She's more into Nickelodeon now. She adores her little brother, but is quick to argue with Colin as well. And boy, can she be sassy. She loves animals, as well as stuffed animals. I've lost track of how many teeth she's lost. Last week we went to her first orthodontist appointment -- we were told to come back in 6 months. She's enjoying summer camp and being with her friends she's known since pre-school. We're so proud of all that she's accomplished in her short, little 7 years of life. We can't wait to see what's yet to come.
Morning of her birthday
Opening presents that night; she loved her outfits that match her American Girl doll.
And the furniture to store it all!
This kid gets to celebrate her birthday for, like, a month! She had cookies with her class, cookies at home, and cookie cake at her birthday party.
Colin wanted to take some pictures with my phone -- he snapped this cute one of Cadence not too long ago. It was supposed to be of my mom and Cadence, but, ya know, he's 4.
We decided on Star Lanes for this year's birthday party. They did a great job -- the staff was helpful and the place was really clean. Not like your typical, ol' bowling alley!
Cadence wanted a puppy theme, so that's what she got!
After the bowling and food, we had some arcade time!
She received an outfit that matched Gracie's -- they were too cute together.
