Happy birthday!

Yesterday was Ava’s fourth birthday. Which was a little bit harder because time has gone soooo quickly, I sometimes miss my little baby, all pudgy and cuddly. But I can’t be sad because I love the little girl she is becoming!

The day started out with a giant dragonfly balloon, which she is still playing with today:

And for her cake we got a little curious george topper. And the cake was totally against me, the top layer split in half and then when I was frosting it the cake was crumbling. So I had to spackle the top layer together and the back side with a TON of frosting. So the cake has a really ugly side! But luckily it still tastes DELICIOUS!

And Ava was very excited to blow out the candles, and a really great shot of the ugly side of the cake!

And a cute picture of Ava and Audrey:

And Audrey going for some cake, which she didnt have more than one taste! I’m wondering if she is my daughter……she didnt love the chocolate!

And the funniest picture of them all. First I have to preface this with the fact that Ava NEVER eats this way. She is extremely anal about her food and getting food on her mouth or hands. She bites the spoon when she eats yogurt so it doesnt touch her lips. And she also takes a napkin and cleans the edge of her toast if the jam isnt even. So when I turned around from cutting all the cake I was more than shocked to find this:

Went right past the fork and straight with her hands! She wasnt even this messy as a baby. Totally cracks me up, it must have been REALLY good!

This birthday has been her most exciting for her. A package from Gymboree came with new clothes and panties right before dinner so she tried on her new clothes and hair clips. But I made her change back into her “old” clothes cause I had a feeling the cake might get messy. And she also scored some new music instruments from my mom; a tambourine, CYMBOLS and a TRIANGLE. It is very LOUD!!!!!! But she loves it so I will put up with it.

And soon I will put in my large Stampin Up order and get her a couple sets that she has been eyeing, the bugs and that new set with the rocket. It’s a good thing I’m not a “real” demo cause I don’t memorize the whole catalog.

Anyway, I have 2 projects that I need to do by Monday and then I’m still working on my list of 25. I think I have 18 or 19 left and hopefully I’ll get 3 out of the way tonight! I should have something crafty or card related to look at tomorrow. Thanks for letting me ramble on about my sweet pie Ava!
