Well here it is-Sierra's birthday and Baptism post. She turned eight on saturday and was baptized the same day. Michael's parents and sister Mindy came from Utah, and my sister Brenda and niece Abigail came from California. We also enjoyed seeing the relatives who live "relatively" close, that we never get enough time with. It was such a nice day with lots of support from family and friends. Here are ten facts about Sierra;
1. She is easy going, which in this household is soooooo welcome, and rare!
2. She is very silly and loves, to giggle, sometimes just to hear herself giggle.
3. She loves to play with baby dolls, always is carrying a baby and creating a "mom" game usually involving Zoe and Carter with her.
4. She is so kind. There are a couple of little boys in her grades that have a crush which I know she doesn't reciprocate but she is so thoughtful of their feelings, even when it's hard for her.
5. She eats at LEAST two breakfasts every morning.
6. She is a dedicated fan of hot cheetos, her fingertips are permantly stained red to prove it.
7. She loves pirates, the movie, the idea, the "theme" she has had a pirate themed birthday every year since she was four. Last year she was a pirate girl for halloween, not surprisingly she wants to be a pirate girl again this year!
8. She is tenderhearted. To discipline Sierra I have to be very careful, if I tell her I am disappointed in her behavior she is likely to burst into tears and be remorsefull and sorry much longer than necessary.
9. She is likely to be moving and smiling, If you did random checks of Sierra throughout the day she would 9 times out of 10 be grinning and in motion.
10. She is so loving, all my kids have had their "stages" where they didn't allow kisses (Carter's is in the middle of an 18 month long stage right now), but not Sierra, she will love and hug, and kiss, and climb on laps, and snuggle you to your hearts content--I so love that about her!
A special birthday for a sweet daughter, we love you Sierra! You are a good example to all of us.

If you ever need to trade off one of your children- I'd be happy to take Sierra. She would fit right in at our house! Hope your birthday was perfect! We miss you tons!
She looked so beautiful in her baptism dress. Good job on the hair too- very pretty.
Aunt Courtney gets all hair do credit.
