facts about the birthday girl

Today is a special day. It marks the day that a beautiful baby girl came into the world, full of spunk and ready to halt the boys with her blue eyes. Today is Shaylee's 11th birthday. Here are some fun facts about the blue eyed beauty.

She came into the world via c-section after sitting breech the entire nine months, weighing in over 9 pounds.

She didn't like her cake on her 1st birthday, but did enjoy sticking her fingers in it.


Turning 2, she sported a pair of fancy blue princess shoes and a matching blue sundress. And her legs could stop the boys then!


Around 3, she was taking a bath. Auntie Vicki and I were talking in the bathroom while she bathed. We were squirting water out of bath toys. The toys had the icky black floaties in them that shot out into the water. Shaylee noticed it. She stood up, on one foot. Vicki and I bust into contagious laughter, tears rolling down our face. As Shaylee goes to get out of the tub, in a very funny way, she screams, "Stop laughing, there's something wrong with me!"


At 3 and 4, she was going to the SDSU preschool where all the teachers just loved her. She was also very close to a handsome boy, Hunter.


At 5, Shaylee entered Kindergarten after just turning 5 a few weeks prior. She thrived on school. The teachers loved her.


When she turned 6, her personality was really starting to take notice. I was seeing sides to her that resembled my own. Both the good and the bad. She also took an interest in T-Ball and swimming.


Turning 7 she still liked softball and had now developed friends whom she played with while we were home. Her love for water is growing every year. Her voice has become more emergent and she sings beautifully.


By 8, Shaylee has become very independent. She loves to play games, play at the park, ride bike with her friends and loves Bratz. Her room is decorated in Bratz.


At 9, she has become developed a hot/cold relationship with everyone around her. She has learned to stand on her two feet and speak her ground. Her singing and acting has become very important to her. She strives to do her best in school and gets excellent grades.


One year ago, turning 10, she moved to a new town, a new school, and made new friends. It taught her how to treat others and how she wants to be treated. Being the new girl, she quickly made friends at school and with the teachers. Her fascination with Bratz is still there, but she also enjoys Webkinz and music. Shaylee has also taken some amazing pictures.


Today marks 11 years. She is a beautiful, mature, intelligent, funny, witty "tween". She is going into 6th grade and shows only positive enthusiasm for it. Today, she got her hair cut and her friends all oogled over it. They loved her hair. They loved her shirt. Her fascination for photography is really


1 year later having moved into a new town, new friends and a new school, I can see she has made it. She has started maturing into lady.


Happy Birthday Shaylee! We love you!
