January 26, 2012.......6 1/2 Years Old



At 6 and a half years old, this little princess weighs 41 pounds and is 46 inches tall - which makes her very skinny.  Most pants have to be altered to get them long enough yet still fit.  I do occasionally make her pants or have them made for her.  Leggings work great also.  She is in First Grade but is one of the youngest and smallest in her class.
Her favorite thing to do is play outside, either riding her bike, playing on her swingset, or drawing on the driveway with chalk.
Her favorite food is anything sweet or anything that has noodles in it.  She loves to eat Sour Cream and Onion Potato Chips with her dad (not sure if it is the taste that she is after or because she knows that the smell of those chips drives me nuts).
She sleeps in her bed most nights but still has to get in bed with me to snuggle even now and then.
She takes a gymastics class once a week and LOVES it!  She also takes dance once a week and doesn't seem very interested in the dance part but loves the costumes and hanging out with the class of girls.
Her favorite colors are pink and blue.
She is CRAZY for new clothes, jewelry, and shoes - that's my girl!
She is still very much a sensory seeker and can easily get over-stimulated which seems to bring on some mischief but we are working on that.

Leanna is getting more and more beautiful everyday! Hard to believe she is already 6 1/2... Where the heck does time go? Seriously... Glad to see that she's doing well and enjoying gymnastics and dance. You sure did get your girly girl! Love it that she's in to all the glitter and bling and SHOES! LOL... You are so good at keeping up with blog posts. I've been chasing myself around so much this past year, I rarely get around to posting about half the things that happen anymore. Reading your this afternoon makes me want to try harder to keep up! Thanks for sharing your princess - give her a big hug from Allie and I!

I love Leanna's smile. She is definitely a girly girl. Lexie would love to eat some chips with her. She loves the one with Ranch dressing.
