My sweet Sydney officially turned 11 last week. It's hard to believe! In the past 6 months or so, she has really gone from being an average 10 year old to being at the start of the "tween" world. She loves her iPad, she has a TikTok account and loves editing the videos, she Facetimes her friends a lot, she loves soccer but doesn't take it too seriously, she loves playing Roblox, she possibly has her first "boyfriend" now- sigh. A boy likes her, she likes him, and she keeps asking me, "Mommy, how old do I have to be to have a boyfriend?" hmmmm. Not sure if I'm ready for all of this. She loves playing with her friends, she'll run around the neighborhood on her bike, going to various friends' houses. She steers clear of school drama, but she definitely recognizes it. I guess she's warming us up for the new chapter of middle school... coming in the near future!
The Friday before her birthday, I brought cupcakes to her class at lunch:
Sunday night, she opened her present from her grandparents:
On Monday, her birthday, she got to pick the plan for the day. (we were on fall break, and all her buddies were out of town). We first went to Dave & Buster's- we had the whole place to ourselves!
They hit the jackpot!
She then chose to go to Chick-fil-a for lunch:
That evening, she got to pick where we went to dinner- and she wanted to order Papa John's. So it was a pizza/movie night kinda night!
Later that week, we took her friend Izzy to Andretti's to celebrate!
Getting confetti'd at church on Sunday:
Happy 11th birthday to my sweet Sydney! Can't wait to see what's in store for the next year.
