We enjoyed
celebrating our girl yesterday! It was a
wonderful thing spending one on one time with her all day yesterday and boy,
did we do a lot of fun stuff! Here’s how
the day went from Olivia’s perspective...
O N E – Ate Like a Boss
My very
favorite thing to eat for breakfast is donuts (whose isn’t?) so Mommy and Daddy
took me to Dunkin Donuts. I saw a pink
donut and went craaaazaaaay! Strawberry
frosted with sprinkles for me, pwease!
We lunched at
one of my faves – Chick-Fil-A. They have
the very best meals for kids… I mostly just like the fruit pouch and the fact
that Mommy and Daddy let me have juice there.
They stopped ordering milk for me because it’s in a bottle and I
always spill it all over the place. I
guess I showed them!
T W O – Played Like a Boss
After donuts,
we popped over to visit my Cokie at her office for some birthday hugs and
kisses, and I roped her into giving me a piece of chocolate – I’ll take the
pink heart, pwease!
I didn’t want
to leave so Mommy and Daddy bribed me by telling me that they were going to
take me to the crayground, but instead, we went through some crazy loud tornado
cave that they called a car wash. They
said that they thought it might be fun for me to see, but I was like GET ME OUT
OF HEEEERE, YOU SAID WE WERE GOING TO THE CRAYGROUND!
After the
carwash, Mommy and Daddy finally pulled up at the only place I wanted to see
today – the crayground. Thank goodness
they kept their promise. Mommy and Daddy
kept complaining about the cold and the wind, but they’re just wusses. It was glorious!
Mommy and
Daddy cut our crayground trip short.
Sigh. But then they took me to
the library and let me get my very own library card so that made it all better! After that, we read a few books, I practiced
my duck face, and then we got to go to music and story time where we ran into
our friends Miss Katie and Eloise. Eloise
and I made some music with our drum sticks and shakers, we did some coloring,
and then I checked out my very first book on the way out – Cinderella! Because – princesses – all day, errrry
day.
T H R E E – Shopped Like a Boss
After the
library we had lunch (see above) and then we headed to the bank where the nice
lady gave me a handful of lollipops, two being my favorite – purple! So what to do on your birthday when you get two lollipops? Eat ‘em both at the same time, of course!
I happily
snacked on my two lollipops and then we headed over to Toys R Us because Mommy
and Daddy said that I could pick out a toy.
I, of course, went with Frozen stuff – an Anna and Elsa beach toy set,
and a little Anna and Elsa purse.
The shopping
continued at Kohl’s – not on the original agenda, but Mommy realized that she
had Kohl’s cash and a coupon that were about to expire so – might as well buy
the birthday girl some new clothes! I do
need a new spring wardrobe, after all!
At the store I found the best nightgown ever, and of course, I roped
Mommy into buying it for me. She’s such
a sucker. I also practiced my duck face
at Kohl’s today, too!
The car trip
home felt long, and I thought I was going to be able to stay awake, but I ended
up crashing about 2 miles from home.
When we got home, Mommy made a successful crib transfer where I
proceeded to sleep like a boss... but only after I whined for my paci. BWAHAHAHAHA! ;o)
When I woke up
from my nap, we stopped by to visit Pop at work, and then we headed to pick up
Jacob from school.
F O U R – Caked Like a Boss (or not)
After dinner it
was time for cake and I blew out my own candle!
I picked up my fork, took one bite, and said, “I don’t like it. I’m done.”
And Mommy and Daddy were shocked… and probably totally OK with it at the same time. Since I didn't want cake, I practiced my duck face some more while everybody else ate theirs... I think I've almost perfected it!
F I V E – Opened Presents Like a Boss
We ended the
day by opening presents. Mommy and Daddy
surprised me with my very own kitchen! I
think Jacob likes it even more than I do!
I also got some princess magnets and a princess puzzle, Ariel’s chariot,
and 2 hot pink Hot Wheels cars… those were my favorite!!
It was the
best day and I enjoyed having Mommy and Daddy all to myself.
