Princess Party












So Kaija is officially 3 years old. We had pink unicorn pinata, purple balloons and cupcakes, a pin the crown on the princess game, and a treasure hunt with gold chocolate coins. (I don't think the kids even realized there was chocolate in them...) Kaija was very poised and quiet during her party, either very well-behaved or very over-stimulated and lacking a nap. Hmmm... I wonder.. Ben's Aunt Sheila came, along with some old neighbors we hadn't seen for a while and it was great to just stand around and laugh at 3 year olds. I love the social dynamics of this age. At one point, Kaija became a little overprotective of her presents "These are for my Burt-day" which resulted in some kids crying. We had a blast but I think next year we'll keep it small and more low-key. I will try to get some pictures of the pinata which was really funny: more to come on that!
