Keira Piper is 6

Keira Piper turns 6


showing off her new dance outfit
 

me and all my girls

In just 11 days shy of 6 years we started and completed our family!! Our first princess Keira Piper has turned 6! Its hard to believe that 6 years have flown by but I have to say that watching Keira grown into a "big girl" is so much fun.  She is now quickly coming out of her shell and discovering who she is and what she loves.  She is still has a super sensitive side and cares so deeply for others and their feelings but it learning how to handle her own emotions, she loves to ask questions about what she is allowed to do and say thanks to kindergarden she wants to make sure she is acting "appropriately".  She loves school and playing school (mostly teacher..ask grandma), laughing and being goofy, reading, fashion, coloring or doing anything crafty, she loves playing with her sisters and friends, she loves Justin Bieber and music in general.. but there is something that she LOVES and has a passion for more than most anything else and that is DANCE!! This girl could dance from sun up to sun down and she is so creative and free with her movement...she takes it very seriously but also has a lot of fun with it. I think its something she will enjoy in her life for a long time...and with her growing confidence I think she could be pretty successful at it! As a mom and former dancer nothing makes me more proud and in awe than to watch her dance.  I should also mention that keira is my pickiest eater that I have definitely cried over more than once... I was picky but keira takes it to another level... anyway about two weeks ago she I looked over to see her with a lettuce leaf in her mouth... I am sure my face gave it away but I was in shock and didn't know if she realized what she was doing..I didn't want to react too much and freak her out so I just stared at her while she munched through her FIRST piece of lettuce and when she finished chewing she said like it was no big deal.."I like salad!"  I almost had a heart attack.. and for those of you who know keira and myself you understand what a big deal this is LOL yes people there is hope!! Happy Birthday Keira you are so loved! xoxo
