November 6, 2016: Bryn is SIX!

Random, but just have to remember this...how CUTE nora is in her uniform even though we battle every.single.morning to get her dressed...
 Liam's tooth fell out at school!  He had it to bring home but lost it (literally as he says) in Mal's car that day at pick up.  Here was his ingenious solution to the tooth fairy 😂
 Back at my office...yup strep again!  Lucky for Liam, I stopped working a regular schedule last month.  I'm now only working prn when one of the providers is out.  So far it's great as we are only getting more busy around here.
 Nick went to school on Bryn's birthday as a Watch Dog volunteer!


 My birthday tomboy asked for a mani/pedi for her birthday...done!
 The next day, Mrs. Bidelman and her daughter Logan came to see Bryn and her team play! What a special treat!
End of season party, way to go Sidekicks!
Sunday, we celebrated Bryn's birthday at our house!  Her request was an art party.  It turned out wonderful and B had an awesome time with her girls!










 The girls...Maci, Molly, Anna, Harper, Chelsea, Bryn, Emma, Avery, Toryn, Anna G, and Brenna!
 And Bryn's best friends from Faith Formation for the last 2 years, Camila and Valeria!








Throwing birthday parties can be exhausting huh Nick? 😘
 Bryn collected all these art supplies to donate to Childrens Hospital...love her heart!

What can I say about this six year old??  She's sassy, tough, sporty, smart and so much fun!  She is definitely my Barker baby-stubborn, athletic, loves spicy food (and has issues with reflux!), and falls asleep within 10 seconds of hitting the pillow 😊
 She is so creative and clever...her is what she calls her "walking around cash" 😂
 She is petite but MIGHTY.  She is 40 lbs (22%) and 45.75 in (61%), bringing her to 5% BMI.  She is my new best eater if you don't count the fact she doesn't like lots of unhealthy foods like dairy (milk, yogurt, cheese), red meats, deli meats, and chocolate.  For the first few weeks of school, she was bringing home her lunch box uneaten.  I finally realized she LOVES a hot lunch.  Now she takes tortellini, lentil or vegetable soup, turkey hot dogs and leftover and comes home with an empty thermos!
 Birthday cake request..angel food like Dallie!  She also LOVES the Bad Kitty book series and was so excited to get a new one for her birthday.  She is doing so well in school and I love getting her reports that she is often getting role model behavior!
 A new bike from Grandma and Grandpa was a huge hit!
 She still fights her curly hair but does love her curly Barker role models, Mayce and Linds!
 Bryn loves art...drawing, coloring, painting...all mediums!

Bryn also loves displaying her art on my back...in the form of covertly covering me in grocery store stickers.  Nora thinks this is the most HILARIOUS thing she has ever seen!

 She still loves soccer, riding her bike and scooter, and roller skating!
 Bryn absolutely LOVES Pepper!  They have such a sweet bond and she is so maternal and nuturing with her...
 She is also so sweet with Nora...including playing Barbies and dolls with her
 Precious girl, I can't wait to see what she gets into this next year!  You continue to impress us with your maturity and kindness, we love you so much B!
