My sweet little Audrey turns 6 today, and I can’t say that I am ready for it.  I mean.  I am ready for it.  Cake is made, party is planned, people invited…

Birthday Smoothie! Strawberry, Banana & Pear combine to make a refreshing and delicious smoothie!

 

but she is getting so big.  So grown.  Turning into the girl and eventually woman she is destined to be.

My heart bursts with love for this first little girl of ours.  It’s truly a delight to watch her grow.

As you can gather, this is a somewhat healthy morning drink.  But this is no ordinary drink, it’s a birthday drink, so I added some marshmallows.

Because, marshmallows. #da

And truth be told, I was 100% inspired by these pancakes that Audrey loved so dearly.

Ombre Pancakes!

I hope that Audrey likes her cake too.  It was, of course, a special request and I can’t wait to share it with you!
