Happy Birthday Ramsey!

Our baby girl, Ramsey, turned 7 years old today! Happy Birthday Sweetie!

Ramsey was born at 1 second after midnight, and this year she was able to stay up late enough to celebrate her birthday at the exact time that she was born. She and I got on the computer as the clock ticked 12:00:01 and looked at the pictures from the day she was born. It was a fun walking down memory lane and I wanted to share a few photos with you.

Every year, the girls get to choose what kind of birthday cake that they want Nana, my Mom, to make. Here is what Ramsey has chosen throughout the years.

1st Birthday: Ramsey's official cake was a teddy bear cake but this was the cake that she fed herself.

2nd Birthday: Ramsey loved Elmo

3rd Birthday: gotta love Nemo!

4th Birthday: a Cinderella cake for our princess

5th Birthday: Barbie is the best friend for the 5 year old!

6th Birthday: our little cowgirl!

7th Birthday: This year, Ramsey wanted a Tim McGraw cake. That was a stretch for Mom but we ended up deciding on an acoustic guitar and Mom incorporated a picture of Tim McGraw into it. It turned out great! Thanks Nana! Things were a little tougher for my Mother-in-law, Ann, who likes to take the theme and get all of the girls (my 2 and my 2 nieces, her other granddaughters CJ and Madilyn) party favors. She didn't have many Tim McGraw options but she found some other great items that they'll all enjoy. Thanks Ann!
