Susie and Ron

Megan decided to take a couple of friends (Ariana and Estelliana) to Build a Bear for her birthday.  They had a great time chosing their new friends and dressing them up.  Her bunny has become one of her favorite toys and it goes just about everywhere with her.  After the Build a Bear excursion, we came back home and decorated cupcakes for the birthday cake.  It was a pretty interesting looking cake, held together by chopsticks, but it served it's purpose as we all sang Happy Birthday to Megan!

About Megan at 6 years old:  Megan has such a gentle soul.  She loves her family and especially loves playing with her baby sister.  They play outside in the doll house, ride bikes and swing together.  She's extremely generous and likes to give gifts and make things for mom.  She can spend hours playing Polly Pocket or dressing up her dolls but can still rough it up with Andrew.  She just learned how to swim but she still needs a little more confidence.  She's proud that she likes vegatables.  She surprised her teacher by how social she is because her teacher thought Andrew's little sister was a quiet one.  She likes "kids cook" (helping with dinner) and washing dishes by hand.  She still loves to wear dresses and skirts although she wears long pants about half the time now.  She has almost perfected her cartwheel.  Her favorite colors are purple and blue.  She is not an early riser.  She learned from someone (hopefully not me) how to roll her eyes at people.    She can climb the rope in the gymnasium and swing on the monkey bars till the cows come home.  We love you, Megan!
