Ava was sooooo excited about her birthday this year. Instead of her birthDAY, it was more like her birthMONTH. She talked about it for weeks before and after and is still telling us today that her "birthday is all done", because we have to keep telling her that. She had several celebrations, so it really did make it all a very big deal. My parents came over for her actual birthday and brought her a big girl Tinkerbell bike. It only took a couple of days before she was peddling well down the street! She also had a birthday celebration at day care with her classmates. I brought some cupcakes in for her to share and Mia even got to partake in the fun. The big celebration was her party at the Little Gym, where the Tinkerbell theme continued. She had a blast running and jumping around - climbing on equipment, singing and playing with bubbles. Boy, were we so glad the craziness and wildness of it all wasn't at our house. I can completely now understand why having someone else host your kid's party is the way to go if you can swing it! Our gift to Ava was a little wooden play house in the back yard. It took Doug and a couple of neighbors hours and hours of blood sweat and tears to put it together. Ava sure does love it though. I don't think we'll be able to top birthday #3 anytime again in the near future.
