We moved to a new apartment after 7 months of staying in the old one. My kids have made friends in the old school and therefore needs some time to find new ones. So I thought a birthday party would be a good way to get new friends.
Since Daniele has given us a school award, has been a very good older sis to Nica, has been attended ballet class religiously (Nica sometimes feels lazy) and has been the most helpful in household chores. We with the support (co-sponsor) of our dear Tita Socky decided to give her a birthday party.
Yesterday, we spent around 4 hours in the mall - 1 hour of which spent choosing & fitting her dress and shoes!
Going back to my check list here's what we have accomplished -
Invites, plates & cups, loot bag & contents, prizes,2 dress, 2 shoes (1 for school she said :-)
Eli (short for elephant), Daniele's favorite toy (Auntie Sarah's gift) who sleeps beside her got to try her birthday outfit! I really think that's what made her choose this gown - it has a smaller version! The sweater Eli is wearing is new too, Daniele will have a change of outfit - so does Eli!
While we were looking at all the prizes and Daniele was showing us how the gown fits Eli, Nica is nowhere to be found.
She is busy in her room writing something. Before dinner she came up to me and gave me the letter attached. What a beautiful way to pressure Mom Nica :-)
Well, I still have 4 months to save up on that.
For the meantime I still have to download Camp Rock (Jonas Brothers) and Miley Cyrus (a.k.a. Hannah Montana) songs for the party later... still a lot of work :-)
