Allie went to her first birthday party "alone" tonight. Actually, I stayed at Chuck E. Cheese's while she ate & played with her friends. I wasn't quite ready to allow her to stay without me nearby. She was very excited to pick out a "beautiful Cinderella Barbie" (her words) for Sami. She carefully chose a "perfect" pink bag to wrap the gift in (she did it herself). She also wrote "Happy Birthday Sami, Love Allie" in the card and was SO proud of herself. I tried to get all 15 or so party goers together for a group shot & I only managed to keep 4 still long enough for a picture (they are Sami, Abbie, Allie & Lily). Allie loved hanging out with her preschool friends.
We've been at the waterpark every day this week. Jake loves his new found freedom (limited) and has been obeying all of my rules (so far). Tommorrow we'll head to the waterpark for a couple of hours then out to Sophie's to set up for our annual garage sale on Saturday. I hope I get rid of a bunch of crap!!Last night my friend Kim had a summer kick off girls only party. Sophie brought along her Karaoke machine & a Grease CD...I'm amazed how women (all mothers of Kindergarten or younger aged children) over 30 years old will act when presented with the opportunity to sing Grease songs while having a margarita. There were 8 of us there and we knew all of the words to all of the songs....I've attached a picture of Kim, Sophie & Lynn singing along...they will kill me when they see this!!
