It's been a really hectic couple of weeks as I have been planning and preparing for not only Christmas but also for Kailyn's 3rd birthday party. It wasn't a huge turn out, which I actually prefer, but still a few kids came and Kailyn had tons of fun. I don't think I saw Kailyn for a couple of hours while the kids were here, it was very strange. In fact, every time I went into her playroom to check on her she would say "go away mom". Lol...I thought she was turning 3 not 13!Our theme this year was Toy Story. I kept going back and forth on the theme this year, she's been really into Handy Manny for most of the year but as soon as Toy Story 3 came out she has been addicted to it. So, I actually asked her what she wanted either Handy Manny or Toy Story and she said, "Toy Story!" loud and clear. So there it is.
Here are the kids piled into her chair waiting for the movie to start.Look how cute the are and how luck Austen is, he's got 3 beautiful girls all to himself! :)
While they were doing their thing, Mommy was doing her thing, catching up with some friends I hadn't seen in a while. It was very much needed.
Present time came and I am not sure what happened but Kailyn got really shy when all the attention was on her and she had a bit of trouble opening her presents, she needed her friends help to open them. It was quite cute actually, I'm glad she included them. I think it was a big overwhelming for her to have everybody staring at her.A big THANKS to everybody for their great gifts, she's enjoying them all to the fullest!
Then, came time to sing to her and blow out her candles on the cupcakes mom tried to make so perfect, and once again she didn't want the attention on her. I thought that would have been her favorite part, after all she had been asking me to blow out the candles all day.
All in all, her party was a success and I'm glad it's over, I was stressing a little to make sure that it was as perfect as I could get it. I am not a party planner whatsoever but it came out pretty good.
Until next year! :)
