The girls coudln't wait to get their hands her! For more of this little cutie, you can check out her own website here.

Kathryn's 6th bday party was to be held at the famous Kitty Park, where I too celebrated many a birthday. But the day before they canceled on us! We scrambled to find an alternative solution worthy of such a monumental event, and in the end we rented this enormous water slide...

Huge! I could not even hoist myself up with a kid on my hip.

I think Kathryn enjoyed it, except for the moment she complained that it didn't feel like her birthday because everyone sliding down kept asking her to move out of the way...

Our party was complete with an egg relay,

A two-legged race,

...and a jalapeno pinata compliments of Uncle Tim.

Here is K with my mom's sister, Aunt Karen

At the bakery, I gave Kathryn the pick of the whole sample book. She looked past all the Disney princess cakes, Strawberry Shortcake, etc... and declared, "No, I want YOU to make it, mom!"
