Gloria's Birthday

Gloria turned three today! She wanted a Tinkerbell party, here she is wearing her Tink dress and Lydia is in all pink like Rosetta

The friends: Hero (neighbor same age as G), G, Brandt (son of Katie, E's friend), Nita, Archer (Hero's brother), Lydia & Jacob

After lunch, singing & cake, we played pin the sparkly star on Tinkerbell, then opened presents, she got wonderful things but her favorite is the PINK Barbie fairy ballerina! Gloria gave her guest playdoh & bubbles, the kids played outside some with flower before leaving.

Besides friends Grandpa & Nana came (and Nana of course was a great photographer which is why there are so many good pics)

Nita is letting Gloria borrow her fairy dress for Halloween so after the party she put it on and danced to the Tinkerbell music.
Lydia enjoyed playing with Gloria's new toys (she got a couple of her own too) while Gloria was busy dancing
Fun day! We had dinner at Chickfila.

Gloria normally falls asleep around 7pm, tonight we made the trade: the paci for a cuddly Dora doll (the doctor says no pacis after three and she said she was ready). Now its almost nine, she is in her bed crying. We've already done a few lullabies, new diapers, trip to the bathroom, putting her back in bed and tucking her in. I hope this is a short phase and it doesn't mean the end of our good sleeper. I guess I'll update in another post!
