Birthday Party

Today we had Ava's birthday party at Rollie Pollies (it's one of those kid gym places with a foam pit, gymnastic stuff, bouncy house etc.).  We had it really early this year since I wanted to make sure that I would actually make it to her party and not be at the hospital having a baby.  As a result, it did not feel much like her birthday to me or Darren but Ava & her friends had a blast and it was time well spent.

Ava on her favorite thing: the trapeze swing.

 Getting "Happy Birthday" sung to her...she picked out all the Hello Kitty decorations herself and after determining that it would cost a small fortune for the store to make HK cupcakes for her party, I ended up making 36 and putting those old school 80s hard icing decorations on top of them so they too would be HK.

I took a bunch of photos at her party but since the kids run around like crazy, a lot of them are bad, hence only 4 photos on the blog.  But they had fun and that's what's important!
