This is Baby's Birthday Party Part 2 - continuation of the day. After the Ally lead games and such inside we went to the park.
Ally of course brought her camera. (Because that is what moms do - we bring cameras to take pictures of our babies!)
We used Ally's little backpack to create a carrier for baby to ride on Ally's back to the park.
It was Baby's first time on the slide.
So much fun
So much fun
Even by herself - Baby was very brave.
Then it was time for the swings. I thought this was a very creative way for Baby to sit (lie) in the big kid swing.
Ally let her ride on her lap for a bit.
They had so much fun.
Then it was time for Baby to ride in the baby swing.
Before we left Ally had to show Baby how much fun it is to wind up the swing.
And then get all dizzy and the swing unwinds and spins you around and around
It was really pretty interesting to be there with Ally and Baby - Ally seriously made sure that Baby got to experience everything at the park. I did not get a picture, but they even did the monkey bars.
Then it was back home - Here is the garland that Ally made for decorations. Remember it was a butterfly theme - Ally drew, colored and cut out all of the butterflies herself. Then she had mama help her attach them to a ribbon. Just like when we make a banner or garland for our celebrations.
We sang happy birthday to Baby.
Such a good baby and Ally.
After cake they made forts - see how Baby has her own fort under the chair right next to Ally's?
Finally it was time to open presents. Ally and I picked out that messenger bag for Baby, and it came with markers and sparkles for Ally to decorate it - she worked on it all afternoon one day until it was complete and ready for Baby's gift.
Baby's other gifts - a picture of Ally in a frame:
A card Ally made all by herself.
And some butterfly pictures that mama and Ally made.
Finally it was time for Baby's friends to get their goody bags go home.
Finally it was time for Baby's friends to get their goody bags go home.
Becky and I were relieved - it was a very long party - 4 hours or so.
This make believe / imaginative play continues - play dates for Baby, and this weekend there was even a sleep over!
