Gwyneth Grace is seven years old! She loves being the baby of our family and we pretty much adore her always. Her favorites are breakfast, art, painting pottery, playing American Girl dolls, dancing, telling jokes, Girl Meets World, Minions, dolphins, monkeys, stuffed animals, dressing up, girl scouts, her cousins, her friends, and snuggling with her family. She is very brave, but not much of a thrill seeker. She is self-assured, confident, smart, beautiful, shy, and hilarious. She loves to make people laugh. She is very compassionate and empathetic towards others. She is kind; very, very kind. She has an amazing heart and love of life. She is so silly. So very, very silly. Her friend told me the other day, quite happily “Gwyneth is the silliest girl I know”. I hope she never, ever loses that. 

Keep smiling. Keep telling jokes. Keeping being your fabulous self, birthday girl!

The always requested birthday breakfast at Gunther Toody’s. Gwyneth could eat breakfast all day long! 

Gwyneth wanted an American Girl doll sleepover. She was joined by 12 friends with their dolls for a great night of fun. They enjoyed pizza and cake and Gwyneth set up stations in the basement for the girls to play with their dolls. There was a school, hair salon, horse stables, fashion (clothes), park, and so on. The girls played so well together. Gwyneth has a truly fabulous group of friends. Her sweetness attracts good peeps. 

Taking a break from dolls to play ping pong. 

Gwyneth and her bestie, Ella. These two have been in the same class since kindergarten and are inseparable. They both seem quiet and shy, but when they are together they are hilarious and silly. I adore them together. 

Decorations and baby doll chairs

Her cake was chocolate with strawberry filling. It matched her invitation perfectly. And it was quite delicious!

The girls decorated night shirts

I helped each girl sew a sleeping bag for her doll. Gwyneth was SO excited about this and all the girls loved it. 

Movie and popcorn time. They watched the American Girl Grace movie. Most were out by 11. Some were out by 11:30. Everyone finally crashed by 12. Not bad at all. 

Happy, happy birthday Gwyneth!
