happy birthday to our now SEVEN year old, miss mya belle!

 we celebrated all day long today and a few times in the past week. we had family dinner on sunday, saw coco and went to pizza pie on monday. today, we picked her up from school to get lunch at her favorite, cafe rio, and snagged her free dutch bros drink on our way. after school we headed to pojo's and managed to kill 2+ hours, dinner at culver's then home for cupcakes and presents.

this year she had no ideas for her gifts so finding things was hard!

 i planned to go shopping all day today to find the perfect gift, all i had was bits and pieces of random things but shortly after i dropped mya back off to school the nurse called and tegan was in the office with an ear ache, he has been suuuppperrr sick the last few days but i thought we were on the uphill mend, i was wrong, so i hurried back to the school to get him. took one look at him and off to the doctor we went. he looked miserable and his ears were killing him. we waited in the doctor office to find out he has double ear infections, then we were off to walmart to snag his prescription. by the time we were finished with all that burke and mya were done with school, so store bought cupcakes for the win. and the perfect gift was never found. it broke mya's heart a little bit when she saw the store bought cupcakes, she had her heart set on caramel cake, but i promised i would make it this weekend for her. i felt awful not having time to make the birthday girl her favorite cake! but what can you do. her gifts were a hodge podge of random things but she loved them all. and we spent the evening at pojos where she ran from game to game. after collecting her goodies with her tickets then going to dinner and getting ice cream by the time we got home she didn't even want to eat a cupcake because she was so full. carmel cake, coming up this weekend...

we love your guts. you are funny and strong willed. you love deeper and fight more than anyone i know. you are head strong and when your mind is made up it takes hours to change it up, if we can change it at all. you love to be with your brothers. you love sports. you love hanging with whitney. whitney is your favorite person, you beg to call and talk to her daily, or make play dates. you snore like a train, old man status. you take care of ayla and all the other kids around you at all times. you are kind. you are considerate. you love to cook. and more than anything you love to be you and you are flat out WONDERFUL. 

we love you little girl.
