Happy 6th Birthday Bailey!!!



Bailey Michelle is already six!! Although for those of us who know her well, we know that she is really six going on 40. Not only does she have an "old soul," she is also so smart and funny. She uses her intelligence to her own advantage and likes to negotiate things with the "grown ups." She makes me laugh because she can reason better than some adults I know. It really is unbelievable how fast the time flies! I feel like she was just born yesterday. In reality, yesterday she was asking me if I would teach her "all of the gate codes to all of the neighborhoods" when she grows up. I have said it before and I will say it again- my nieces are the lights of my life. I could not love them more than I do. I feel like a part of me is missing when they are not around for more than a week.

Bailey and I had a fun photo shoot planned for the day we had scheduled to do her pictures, but it actually rained that day. So, we just ran around my neighborhood and got a few of these pictures in between the boughts of rain. It was funny because Bailey kept reminding me she was still five until the next day. She thought the pictures might be a little different if we waited until she officially turned six. I think that in some of these pictures, you can almost guess what she will look like as a teenager! Gulp! I love you Bailey!!
