"SOPHIA"S BIG BUZZ BIRTHDAY BASH"
Sophia's 4th birthday is Thursday and I have some goodies in the works for her school class. We are making Whole orange muffins (this recipe is very poorly written but you get the idea, oh and I used half Orange Blossom honey and half brown sugar and they were as my friend Susan would say DELISH) for a snack and each child is going to get one of our beautiful little butterflies. The classroom is getting a whole flock along with a REAL butterfly growing kit. We are so excited about that really. Sophia has no idea I bought one for us at home as well :). Every child in the class does a "Life Board" for their birthday to share with the class. It is a celebration of however many years they have been alive. I had so much fun doing Sophia's board and frequently found myself in tears as I tried picking just the right pictures from each year of her life so far.
Her birthday party will be Sat. April 2nd. We have lots of fun things and goodies planned (can you say BOUNCE HOUSE?). Lets just pray for good weather because it will be mostly outside. I found that spring birthdays in Florida are hard because you are never sure what the weather is going to be like, hot,cold,dry,wet it is a real luck of the draw. We are also having a small family celebration on Sunday with all the grandparents.
Having 2 girls with birthdays 3 weeks apart is not easy. I am not sure what I am going to do every year but I am committed to them having their own special day regardless of what we decide to do on that day.
Oh Sophia's celebration is all about Toy Story this year (her choice) so hopefully I can "Girly" this up a bit... She LOVES this movie and can I say so do I. I am not sure why Disney only markets the Toy Story stuff to boys it definitely is a hot with my girls too. Sophia asks me all the time why there are no girl Buzz Lightyear PJ's...
I am making two of Sophia's gifts so I will be doing that this weekend while she is napping. I now she is going to love them. The first is a magazine rack for all of her High Five Magazines. Her grandparents got her a subscription and she loves getting it in the mail every month. I can remember being in the doctors office when I was a little girl and looking for all the High Life books.I loved them too, they are a classic. The second is a Peg Doll Dollhouse complete with Peg Dolls and furniture (well a table). I made Amelia a set of Peg Doll color matching dolls for her birthday and both girls have really enjoyed playing with those, so I know they will love the dollhouse. Liquid watercolors.
They are AWESOME, have you used them?
