Well, she's no longer a little kid, she is now a medium kid. Still little in stature but big in personality! This past weekend was filled with friends and family as we celebrated 7 wonderful years with our little one.
Sid really wanted a Narnia birthday party so this is the invite I came up with
A successful Narnia party and a very happy seven year old.
The next day was the actual birthday that we kept pretty low key. Sid understood that the party was the gift from mom and dad with the exception of a few little things. A book, a small science rocket kit and..... a coat for Robin.
Robin is Sid's Maplea / American Girl doll and while I never understood why they were for children 8 and up, I get it now. Sid loves her doll and brings her everywhere. She was concerned that Robin was getting cold because she didn't have a coat so we fixed that with this shearling coat, boots and mittens.
Sid has started going through her things and is selling older toys in good shape that she no longer plays with so she can save up for a bed, linen and other outfits for Robin. These things are ridiculously expensive so it has been a good exercise in saving for Sid. I think Santa is going to do some shopping at the Maplelea dolls shop!
Hanging out at home, the Queen was getting ready for her coronation. Thanks to Brianne, Sid got a huge cardboard castle play house and was really having fun with it. No, she doesn't wear glasses, those are a part of the royal costume!
Sid's big day would not be complete without getting the big swing at Karate. I was caught off guard and didn't get a chance to set the camera up properly so everything is blurry but you get the idea....
and in honour of the seventh.... here is one of our favourite songs from TMBG!
