Happy 7th Birthday Kambri

It's so hard for me to believe that my baby is 7!  Where has the time gone?! She is such a joy to have in our family. 
 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In honor of the BIG 7 I've made a list of the 7 top things we're loving about Kambri right now or things she likes.
 
1.  We love to listen to her talk in Chinese.  She amazes us with how well and how much she has already learned.
 
2.  I love her peppy/spunky attitude. (When used at the right times, of course.) She has a way of saying things with just the funniest facial expression that leaves us laughing.
 
3.  She is a love bug!  If someone is hurt or sad she's so good to comfort them. I love when she will sit and rub my back, it's so comforting.
 
4.  She loves playing games or watching shows on her Kindle, she takes it everywhere!
 
5.  We enjoy listening to her read.  She has such a love for it and it shows in her level of reading.
 
6.  She likes to spend time with me, no matter what we're doing.  She definitely loves her Mom!
 
7.  She likes Monster High, Barbies, playing babies, and painting her nails!

She was so excited for these spiral curlers.  Who would've thought that a 7 year old would love such a gift?  We'd seen them at Peach Days and she wanted them so bad!  Of course she got a lot of other fun stuff but for some reason this is all that was taken the night of her family party.
 


 
She had a super fun party with lots of her friends. They each got to pick out their own nail polish and we painted/decorated nails, played games and all the normal party stuff.  Most of the girls that came are in her Chinese class so I got them talking a little in Chinese and they all thought I was hilarious when I tried saying anything in Chinese!  They're so smart with how well they pick it all up.
 
We had one of those parties that you never think are really going to happen.  I planned for like 8 girls (they never all show up, right?!) and ended up with 11.  Which meant having Shaun scramble to the store at the last minute to make more party bags.

 
They all spoiled her.  She got so many fun things!

We sure love this girl and are glad she's part of our family!
