A weekend of birthdays

On Saturday, I took Hanna to her friend Emily's princess birthday party. It was fun to spend that time with just Hanna as I left Haley home with Daddy. I didn't take my camera but as princess parties go, it was very princess-y. All of the big names were there; Cinderella, Princess Aroura, Belle, Snow White in the form of wall hangings along with pretty pink toole tied up everywhere like a princess palace. They had a blow up bouncy house with a slide set up outside that kept the kids entertained for awhile. Hanna was a little hesitant to come down the slide on her own and this sweet little guy just swooped in and took her under his wing. He would follow her up there and then pull her over to sit in his lap. This went on for some time. When he finally had enough of being prince charming he just started pushing her on down by herself. She was fine with that but for some reason she would not come on down without that push.

On Sunday, our sweet little "Nichowas" turned three. Jason had to work so I took both girls with me to The Little Gym for some birthday fun. Hanna had a blast running and playing with her two boyfriends, Zach and Nicholas. Haley even got in on the fun and quite enjoyed herself "knee-ing" around and playing with balls. Nicholas was just beside himself the whole time. He seemed so proud to be celebrating his birthday with all of his closest friends (we missed you Kate!). We ended the party with some delicious Mickey Mouse cake and watched Nicholas open his presents. On our way home Hanna said, "That was a gooooood party. I yike Mickey Mouse parties. I wish I had a Mickey Mouse party." I think that says it all. Happy birthday Nick, we hope you had a great time!! Thank you for letting us be part of your big day!
