Tori is 6

IMG_5070 Tori is 6 years old! 

We celebrated Tori's birthday with a party at home with some of her friends.  We decorated gingerbread houses and played a tasting game.

Tori asked for an iPod for her birthday.  She has had a lot of fun with that and all the other toys she got.....and then a week and a half later, more toys from Christmas!  Needless to say, she is over-loaded with things right now! 

And the best part about turning six in our house is - you can get your ears pierced!  For a long time, Tori was saying she was going to wait until she was seven to get her ears pierced.  Which was completely fine with me....six is just the earliest that I want them to do it.  But then just a few months before her birthday, she changed her mind.  So after school on December 14th, we went to go get her ears pierced!

Hard to believe she is six years old!  She is a great kid!  So sweet and loving!  And she has been doing an awesome job taking care of her newly pierced ears.  She is so responsible!  (It must be a middle-child thing!)
