With Heidi and Genevieve's birthday four days apart and Thanksgiving weekend right in the midst, we had a little gift giving on Saturday for Heidi and a party for Genevieve on Sunday.
Fiona helped Lula make a card for this gift for Heidi. When Lula found out it was Genevieve's birthday too, she erased Heidi and wrote her big sister's name instead!
Heidi was happy with a hand me down doll from Fiona...
A hand me down pony from Genna...
And Pua and Heihei! I love how she wrinkles her nose when she is super happy. She also got useful things like shoes, socks, and warm pajamas.
Genevieve invited a few friends she knows from activities that aren't vaulting and their brothers (one for Daniel to play with and one for Shane to hang out with).
Twelve candles for Genevieve...
...and four for Heidi (do I see a little brother trying to blow her candles out?)
The kids all colored cheap mugs from the dollar store with markers that I baked to make the marker permanent. What a fun craft! And what a great group of girls! (I met a mom who was new to MOPS last weekend and she asked the socialization question. I told her my daughter had so many friends, she wasn't allowed to invite them all to her birthday party. That shut her up...temporarily)
