Party girl.

My child’s social calendar is more full than my own.  She isn’t even in school yet, and she gets invited to more birthday parties than I ever did.  I love it because I get to eat cake, and if you know me, you know I love cake.  Plus, Anna gets to interact with other kids and do cute stuff like steal their polka dot sunglasses and hula hoop like no one’s business.

We were invited to our good friend’s daughter’s birthday party at the gymnastics club where I worked many moons ago.  It’s a great place and a great space to have a birthday party.  I should know, I had Anna’s first birthday there! 

Here she is doing her best Elton John impersonation with some sunglasses that she stole from some poor little sunglass-less girl.  (Before you wax all judgmental on me, she gave the glasses back.)

Jumping with dad on the trampoline.

Attempting to do a back handspring.

She didn’t get too far. 

All girls like rings, right?

Nope, not Anna.

So, she tries to steal another little girl’s hula hoop. 

We find her another hoop.

Then she drops it and finds a ball instead.  I think she inherited my attention span.

It was a great party with great friends.  And great cake.  Lots and lots of cake.
