Here I am again. This time I had a really good reason for the time lag in posts. I was in the hospital. Nothing major, but that was 6 days of my life wasted away sitting in a hospital bed. Actually, I brought some crafting stuff with me, so I was able to keep my hands busy. And the iPad helped, too :) I'm home now and doing just fine, but trying hopelessly to catch up where I left off. *sigh*
So we had to cancel the big princess birthday party, and instead had an informal, intimate birthday gathering at our house on Wednesday, Maya's birthday. It was nice. I busted out the prince/princess cardboard crowns and stick-on jems and each child decorated one for him/herself. Then we sang happy birthday, blew out candles, and ate cake.
After the table was cleared, I let the girls open their gifts. Maya's favorite gifts were a pair of glittery pink shoes and a Tinkerbell doll. Once she figured out what she was supposed to do, Hanna just liked ripping the wrapping paper. V_E_R_Y slowly. This drove the older kids nuts because they were so curious about what was inside. So funny! Hanna's favorite gift was Maya's glittery pink shoes! Seriously! Hahaha! She insists they're hers. Well, little miss Han, just you wait until Christmas and see what Santa has in store for you...(I need to wait until then to give them to her because her feet aren't big enough yet! Doh!)
My friend Vicky took pictures of the event, and once I get them from her, I will post them. I will. I will. I will.
Oh, and in case you were wondering why Hanna was opening presents, too, Maya and Hanna's birthdays are just two days apart :) I am now the momma of a 5-year-old and a 2-year-old. How time flies!
