It's pretty wild, but we now have two 6-year-olds in our home! Lil turned 6 yesterday, and it's one month until Braden's 7th birthday.
Months ago, Braden said we'd need to have 6 cakes for Lily, since she'd never celebrated a birthday before.
We compromised with 6 cupcakes!
This was this past Sunday - so Daddy didn't have to worry about just getting home from work & Nana & Nice Wolf were here for dinner.
I'm so, so, so very happy Lily was home with us for her birthday!

Lil had no problem blowing out the candles!
Chocolate cupcakes? Lily approves!
I have more I want to say - about opening presents, about making her a cake yesterday, too, because it was her ACTUAL birthday, and when I asked Brian if I should make her a cake even though we had cupcakes, he said, "Starr would say she needs one," and he was right, so I had to go get a cake mix (Starr is my cousin, who knows all the birthday rules).
BUT, life is busy, so this is it for now. And even though we're busy? We're HAPPY! It's a good life, this life with 4 kids.
