Avery turned 5

My Sweet little princess turned 5 last week I'm not sure what I think about that she has been such a joy in our life's definitely a challenge at times but worth ever minute. There are so many things I love about her:









#1 She has turned into the best organizer, she will be in her room for hours rearranging her clothes, dresser, she has brought her favorite toys in, she has a little table that she puts different blanket on for the table cloth and sets out food at each spot, and of course has a vase with flowers in the middle, I have had to let her just do it even though I want to go in her room and put everything away, but I figure it is so cute that she takes the time to set everything up exactly how she wants.
#2 She has started putting all her clean clothes away on hangers and will put them in the exact spot that short sleeve go, dresses, pants etc its so cute.
#3 She absolutely loves her Dog she has been his little mother she takes him potty, feeds him, takes him on walks and I love to see her praise him when he goes potty on the mat she gets so excited she has to come get me and tell me how good he did. 
#4 I love to see her in the morning when she comes up with her hair all crazy and has a big smile on her face, she used to go get Macoy out every morning but now its the dog.
#5 She love to do crafts and color pictures
#6 She loves playing with cousins and friends
#7 She is such a good help with the boys, she knows exactly what they need and helps them get dressed and feed
#8 She has been so excited that she can read a few words, but if I don't get her at the perfect time to work on homework don't count on it getting done she will make up excuse after excuse why she doesn't need to work on it.
#9 I have learned that I don't get her ready for school or church until its really close to the time we need to leave if I get her ready in advance she will have changed 10 times before we leave and her hair in completely ruined.  I'm not kidding when I'm loading in the car she will run in her room to get something and I'm saying lets go.... and what is she doing changing agggggain I even try to buy her outfits that go together so at least they match but that doesn't do the trick she is very creative and loves clothes.  
#10 She is such a sweet little girl, and has loved taking gymnastics
For her birthday the only thing she wanted was for me to take her shopping to get new clothes so funny but that's what we did and had a blast we made sure she tried them on and fit perfect before we bought them.  We sure love her.
