Does she have to grow up??

My little baby is turning 5 this week. It makes me so sad that she is growing up so fast. She is such a good girl, and definitely makes being a single mom pretty easy. We will be out of town on her birthday, so we had her party on Friday the 1st. Here are a few pictures.

Isn't the cake so cute! A girl that Des works with made it. It turned out so good!

Tae with friends - Kayla, Nicole, Nelly, Caden

Most of the friends - Brynn, Kayla, Nicole, Nelly, Caden, and Ganon. There were a couple more there. They look so happy don't they? ha ha. Must not have been a very fun party.

Isn't she the prettiest girl ever?

For Taelynn's 5th birthday I want to list the 5 reasons I love her most:

She loves to laugh and has the best giggle ever.

I love her beautiful curly hair and big brown eyes.

She loves to go to church.

She is Papa's girl and loves him more than anything.

She is such a sweet girl and I am so glad she is my little girl. I wouldn't change it for the world.

I love you Taelynn!!!

a quick update because I am so so so happy...I've lost 22 pounds! Woo Hoo!!! :)
