Happy Birthday Allison!
Allison turned 9 today, and we’ve been so busy that the traditional happy birthday post almost didn’t get written until after midnight. Allison had dance pictures all morning, then we had to get groceries for her chosen birthday dinner (homemade Chinese food). This was followed by opening presents, a visit from her cousins, making a giant birthday cookie (Allie even made the frosting and decorated it herself). Then it was cooking and eating, and cleaning up and more eating. I think she had a good day.
Our littlest munchkin is now officially halfway to adulthood. The fact that she is growing up is all too apparent in that none of her gifts this year were toys (except for two more Webkinz). The girl who used to reliably ask for Barbies or Littlest Pet Shop is now happy with clothes, jewelry, and gift cards. But as much as I want her to stay my little girl forever, I’m very proud of the young lady she is becoming.
Happy Birthday Allison!



HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALLISON!!!! Have a wonderful day…
Happy birthday
I have a six year old boy who recently had a birthday and who did get lots of Littlest Pet Shop to add to his growing collection, a collection which tends to stay spread out across the house. Of course his pets sometimes have to do battle, often with Lego Star Wars characters, but it’s still cute.
Happy birthday and all that!
Webkinz have been all the rage around here lately. I don’t think they play the online games as much as they just play with the stuffed animals (”they” mostly meaning Allie and Matt)
Sophie turned 7 two weeks ago and still had a fairy party and got all toys. I’m not sure I’m ready for that to change, but I am sure it is on it’s way. Both happy and sad about that.
Happy belated bday Allison! Glad you had a good day - I love the cookie.
