Happy Birthday Tori!!!

I know you can't be 6!! What happened to my baby? WOW! Started Kindergarten and making friends all on your own at school. You're growing up!

Tori wanted to have a High School Musical birthday party. I think that most of her little friends were lost on the theme, but she loved it. Making sure that she had the "Troy" cup, plate, napkin, decoration etc..
The cutting of the cake was SO funny, each girl chose a character to eat... so we chopped out of the middle. What a mess, but all were happy.

Tori waits impatiently 364 days for her birthday to come around. She seriously has to really work to enjoy anyone else's birthday, she just can't get over how long it takes for her birthday to come around.

This year she wanted this doll that pees and poops. I think she was disappointed when she discovered that there wasn't really poop. (can you imagine if there was!?) She LOVES babies SO much, she just wanted so desperately to have one that was closer to real. She was very excited to receive this doll, but alas, she has already been cast aside. Chou -Chou trumps all (she is sitting next to her in the chair there in the lower right corner). Chou Chou is required to get a good sleep w/o bad dreams, and although she is a Bye Bye Chou Chou, he sound is ALWAYS turned off. Funny. We've thought about getting her an American girl, cuz she drools over them in the magazine, but I fear that they too will be cast aside.
Tori had to wait till after Halloween to have her party, She was very upset that we did that, but I think it made it so that friends could come. Tori is quite the social butterfly. I worried about her with this move, but as you can see, she is making friends quickly. 2 of the girls are from school, 1 neighbor and 1 church. another neighbor and another church friend were invited, but couldn't make it. I think that she is fine here in TN. :-)

Here she is with all her pals. I think she had a WONDERFUL time.... now only 364 days till she can do it again. :-)
