We had a joint birthday party for Janai (born December 17th) and Ethan and Mia (born December 19th.) It was a small family birthday. My parents were unable to make it due to a blizzard. I guess that's the bad part about having a winter birthday!
We had a ton of good food. Mike's mom made a bunch of yummy appetizers and we had sloppy joes. The kids always have fun when their cousins come over. Ethan and Mia were beyond excited for their birthday party.
I usually order a cake, but this year, I decided to make cupcakes. The kids were happy with them. They like anything with sprinkles.
Janai turned 11 years old. It's hard to believe that she's this old all ready. She came to her party wearing make-up. I think she did a pretty good job putting it on.
Uncle Billy gave Mia a princess accessory kit. The girls love playing dress-up.
Of course, Riley and Jude had to get in there and help Mia open her presents.
Mia is absolutely obsessed with Monster High Dolls. I'm not quite sure how she found out about them, but she talks about "Monster Dollies" all of the time. She was pretty excited about Uncle Mark's gift.
Mike and I gave Ethan a castle for his birthday gift. He's really into action stuff right now. It has a jail for bad people. We also gave him some knights for his castle.
We bought Mia the princess castle. She saw it on amazon and told me over and over how she wanted it. It's from Melissa and Doug. I really like their toys. It folds out and has many different accessories.
Sarah and Steve bought Ethan this batman hoodie. He loves anything super hero so he was pretty happy with it!
We gave Janai, "Just Dance 3." It's really fun. All of the adults tried it, and we looked pretty awkward trying to dance and keep up with moves. All of the kids tried it as well. It was really funny watching Ethan, Mia, and Riley dance. We got them on video so I'll have to upload that sometime.
