You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. some may be significant only to you. some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experience. - President Hinckley

SeVEn!

Gwendalin is 7! (10-24-11) I can't believe it. She is the only girl in our mix of kiddies and she is all girl! Except at dance (she runs like a football player- but we're working on that.) This year she gave me her birthday list and I did my shopping online due to Travis' health. Nothing arrived all together...so she has been celebrating since Sunday - birthday cake, dinner at McDonald's on Monday with Uncle Matthew, presents arriving daily....she is thrilled to pieces. I have included a few pictures of her from her dance class yesterday ( I was able to go observe).

Here are few tidbits about our Gwennie Girl:

*Don't push her, she will do things in her own way when she's ready (like cleaning her room)
*She LOVES school
*She loves to play barbies and babies with her friends.
*Her favorite food is cheese pizza.
*She loves to help bake and cook in the kitchen
*Playing school or boss is one of her favorites
*She loves to make up songs
*she loves to make up dances.
*She is a great cleaner when she wants to be
*She loves Daddy Daughter Dates
*Father and Sons is starting to be ok, because we get to hang out and watch old movies.
*She loses more teeth than anyone I have ever seen....
* She does not like to brush her hair
*She loves to do her own hair
*Wearing dresses and skirts is a must (everyday if she could)
*her laugh is highly contagious and very hearty!

We LOVE YOU GWENDALIN!





She's the middle dancer.

Time is flying!!! She's growing up so fast, i remember her sitting on the picnic style table in the kitchen at chesleys, holding a blue straw from a huge soda and the blue of the straw drew out her big blue eyes and cherubic cheeks!!! Love that girl, glad uncle Matthew got to be a little part of things... Happy Birthday Gwennie!!!
