Camri's Birthday!!

This is what we did the day before Camri's birthday, along with decorating a big Elmo cake. Thanks mom for all your work and creativity! It made it so much fun for the kids. I know we're all sick to death of Elmo.... But nobody more than you.
Since Camri is such a fan, we decided to have an "Elmo" themed birthday party. Thanks to everyone who came and celebrated with us!

BIG thanks to this lovely lady for helping with the cake, doing the cupcakes and helping me set up for the party. We love you Debbie!

Our little family, getting ready for the big day!

She loved her Elmo cake and cupcakes!

The kids loved making the bags that would later hold goodies, including a bag of candy, Elmo bouncy ball and Elmo fridge magnet.

Making Elmo Bags for treats!

Mommy and Camri

This is "The Big Truck" from her best friends, Kevin and Sam Allred. Lets just say she loves them even more now. Camri loves trucks, and this is her first one!

Here is the baby Steve and I got her for her Birthday. She has been dying for it for months, so needless to say it was literally impossible to get her to open any more presents after the baby was out. She carried her around the rest of the party, and is still sleeping with it at night. She never leaves it out of her sight.

Opening presents at home, since she refused to finish at her party.

Presents, Presents, Presents!

Here is the dollhouse from Grammy Sonja.

Opening the book/drawing board from Papa Steve.

Talking on her new cell phone. Yet another cell phone. Ugh.

Camri's new "Big Girl Bed", and new bedding. I was so worried that she would have a hard time transitioning to a twin bed, but she has breezed through it. Now if only we could get her to potty train so easily.... Maybe after Christmas we'll try that risky business.

And the dresser to match. It has the most darling mirror that goes on it but there is no room for it until we switch rooms.

What visit from Grammy Carolyn would be complete without a crazy shopping trip to Gymboree?
