Amerah's REAL birthday

Since Amerah's birthday fell on a Tuesday this year, we wanted to make sure she still felt special - even if she had to wait a bit for her party.

We try to eat healthy around here (please note the word "try" haha)... so I swallowed my better judgement and prepared meals that our birthday princess wanted.  Frozen toaster strudels for breakfast... lunchable with a brownie for lunch (I was so proud when she added a plum at the last minute - that's my girl!)... and make your own taco salad for dinner...

 

Then we let her open her birthday presents from us...

 

 

Now Amerah has been BEGGING for a big box that she can make into something... so yes... we bought our child 2 boxes!  Buried in one of the boxes was her main present (another thing she'd been begging for), an ipod shuffle. 

Dave did a hilarious rendition of Vanna White... "Which box do you want?  Box A?  or Box B..."

 

She chose well!

And yep... she was one happy kid!

 We picked up a small cake too, because what's a birthday without cake?!

 Yup... no one ever accused our girl of being a wallflower!

 

 

Amerah ended her birthday early (it was a school night after all)... with a little cuddle on the couch, in her new nightie, with Lily (who didn't want her to be on the phone apparently!

 

 

 

 

Happy birthday baby!
