Pink Princess Party
We decorated princess wands with jewels and frosted cookies...
Played Kiss the Frog and Alli added her own little artwork to it :)
Had to have Pink Princess cupcakes...Alli loves Sleeping Beauty and Belle
Nana got her some Princess dresses so Alli had to try out the twirl factor
Loves her friends
One tiara wasn't enough
Alli loves cards. She took her birthday cards to show and tell at preschool and has been sleeping with them every night. If I only knew that a card is all it took to get her that excited :)
All Alli cared about was having a PINK birthday cake with candles. She LOVED blowing them out
Opening presents is so fun with little ones-everything is so exciting. Alli kept saying "what is it?!" "Oh look Mommy/Daddy!"
Lola kept eyeing the wrapping paper. I think we know what to get her for Christmas :)
Can't help but snap a few pics of this little cutie pie
Alli loves her princess jammies...we have to sneak these away to wash them
Alli loves preschool and she got her very own crown to celebrate her birthday-she still wears it and calls it "my birfday crown" I hope I never forget how she pronounces things in her cute little voice.
Alli and Hunter's birthdays are only 5 days apart so we decided to have a little celebration for both of them together-of course they loved it! :)
Pink and Purple...both girls' favorite colors!
Alli is growing up so fast! Some of her favorite things right now are:
Her "dobby" or boppy-its like her security blanket, but an annoyingly big one :)
anything princesse
anything pink
Playing kitchen/pretend cooking or as Alli calls it "chicken"
playing with kids
playing outside
wrestling with dad
drawing/coloring-especially faces
preschool
nursery
singing-she has been singing "all of us together, together, together, in our nursery, there's..." and then she will name everyone in her class/nursery. Its fun to listen to Alli just start singing songs out of the blue that she has learned either in nursery or preschool. She also loves all the Disney movie songs. Right now she loves Mulan's "let's get down to business" so she can act out karate :)
She tells us that her "best fwiend is Hunter"
Alli can write the letter A for her name. She says "one line down, one line down, and another line across." We've been teaching that to her and its fun to see that she's learning and remembering!
Alli loves to dance and when we say "shake your bon bon shake your bon bon" she loves to twist her little bum and she gets so excited about it :)
Favorite foods:
steak or red meat in general
salmon
Baby Food 3rd stages-why she still likes the stuff we don't know, but its pretty healthy so we go with it :)
vegetables- namely green beans, broccoli and "white broccoli" which is actually cauliflower, beets, and corn-she always asks for extra helpings- especially of broccoli
grapes, strawberries, apples, oranges-she requests these for snacks. She surprises us because a lot of the time when I ask if she wants to eat some candy with me she says "no I want gwapes or apples or strawbewwies" We love healthy foods, but what kid passes up candy that's offered to them by their mom? :)
Kelloggs Little Chocolate cereal or Honey Bunches of Oats which she calls "mommy's cereal" because that's what I like to eat :)
She does love chocolate i.e. "M&N's" and licorice
Sayings:
When we are leaving her room after putting her to bed we have to say "love you more" so she can say "love you most!" It's one of her routines, she LOVES Tangled!
When she wants her gummy vitamins she feels like she always has to say "my tummy so hurts, I need medicine" its funny because she says it only when she wants the vitamins. :)
When she is hungry or wants a snack she says "my belly's so hungwy I need a snack."
Happy Birthday Alli J.! You are our favorite little stinkers!
