6-years-old

I usually do a photo shoot with the kids around their birthday to get a new picture for the wall, but I love the picture I have of Hallee and we did it in the Fall so I don't feel rushed to replace it.  One day while I was shopping Caitlyn and Hallee did their own photo shoot, so I will use those pictures for this post.  Caitlyn did a great job!

It is crazy that our baby is already 6-years-old.  I can see how the youngest child always gets treated like the baby because we all do it to Hallee.  She loves it!  She loves all of the attention that she gets from her siblings and she loves to make them laugh.  

The things that come out of her mouth make us laugh a lot!  She says things that are hilarious coming out of her young mouth. She is great with the one liners and loves to say things that make her seem like a teenager.  Lately she has a little too much sass, but I guess that will continue to grow with age. 

Hallee loves to dance.  She is a great dancer and has great rhythm.  She also loves to sing.  She will walk around singing all day.  I think it's adorable, but her brothers get a little annoyed with it.  When we were in Target there was a Trolls boom box and it started playing a song and Hallee yelled, "mom, it's my jam," and then she sang it the rest of the time while we were shopping.  She can also do the Fro Yo rap from Liv and Maddie and that is adorable.

Hallee uses so much expression. Everything that she says is funny because she adds the best facial expressions to go along with her words.  She can be a little intense sometimes with how dramatic she is over things, but she is usually pretty easy going and just likes to laugh and have fun.  She has always been very good at going with the flow.  She has a hard time going with the flow if she is hot, tired or hungry, but hey, we all do!

Hallee is a beauty!  I love her red hair and I love her contagious smile.  She loves to wear cute clothes and shoes and put on make up any time I will let her.  She also loves to wear jewelry and she loves bags and purses. 

This picture makes me laugh.  I love the things Caitlyn came up with for the photo shoot and I love that Hallee was all for it.  She had no problem changing clothes over and over and doing lots of fun poses.  Caitlyn and Hallee love to do girly things together.  They play dolls together, play house, do art, put on make up and paint nails.  I'm glad my girls have a sister!

Hallee loves to watch shows and play games on our phones.  She loves taking pictures with her phone (Caitlyn's old phone).  Hallee is extremely bright.  She learned and developed a ton in Kindergarten.  She is a great reader and can read most things that you put in front of her.  She loves when her siblings give her math problems and she loves to learn about animals.

Hallee loves to act like one of the big kids.  She is more of a home body.  Sometimes I will ask her if she wants to have a friend over and she says she would rather just stay home with me.  She will always play with Tessa if she is given the chance.  I'm really going to miss having her home with me for half of the day this year.  It was so fun to have that one-on-one time with her last year. 

Hallee loves to swing in the back yard.  She loves to play in the treehouse back there and jump on the trampoline.  She is becoming more adventurous and willing to try more things.  She is doing great at going on hikes and walks with me.  She loves to swim and is doing great at getting around in the pool and jumping in. 

We feel very blessed to have Hallee in our family.  She is the perfect caboose to our crazy train!
