Ponderings of an Elect Exile: Emlyn's Birthday!!

I can't believe I am just now getting Emlyn's birthday post up...two days late! Ugh. I woke up not feeling well on her birthday, and managed to get through all the birthday preparations and festivities that day, but didn't get much else done that day and have been behind ever since!

Here are a few photos of the big day and our newly-turned-seven-year-old:

Birthday Banner...

Presents...

Peter decorated this wrapping for her, with help from Bay...:-)

Birthday Girl!!

The new seven-year-old...

She *loved* her penguin from Mrs. Jodie...

Silly girl!

Puzzle from Peter and Bay...

She was very excited about this...

...Because of these!!

(For those who don't know, Em's nickname is Princess Penguin, which stems from Peter dubbing her Mr. Penguin before we knew if she was going to be a boy or a girl, and she collects all things penguin. :-))

Birthday girl's breakfast of choice...

She has wanted this *forever*!! (Many thanks to Mrs. Jodie who saved Mom's life by finding this after mom had been all over town looking only to find them *gone* everywhere I looked. :)) In case you can't tell...there is a teeny, tiny Polly Pocket penguin in there...
