slumber party
February 24, 2012
an impromptu slumber party happened the other night – a first at our home. the girls started in the same bed, giggled way to much, had to separate beds, finally fell asleep at 11pm with ryan sitting on the floor as a watchdog {policing the no talking rule we had to lay down} little birds asleep – finally at rest. of course they ended up in the same bed again by morning light. the first of many sleepovers i am sure.

while their dad was away skiing, the girls got lots of quality time with their grandmother and aunt. My sister in law brought sprinkles cupcakes – yum!
we had a fantastic time and lots of mini photo sessions
more photos to come…….

what a special day!
my babies birthdays are very low key
when I had my first baby, I threw a big party when she turned one – i found myself stressed by the planning and entertaining and on her birthday i just remember her being tossed around from person to person.
i’ve never done that again.
there is no invite, no crazy decorations
usually cupcakes and ice cream + family {whoever can attend}
the girls really focus on one another and they have a sense of calmness and excitement all at the same time
quality time and love is spent
and that to me is most memorable!
a party of 6 adults and 3 little girls was special and perfect and SHE felt so loved
Happy 2yr birthday precious little darling!
{don’t get me wrong – i love a good party and i admire mothers who throw great ones, i just get stressed and loose focus – so i keep it simple}
{correction: admittedly, i don’t LOVE parties – being a naturally introverted person i like to stay home but i do enjoy them on occasion}
