AB's Other Birthday

Because AB's birthday fell so soon after Christmas, so soon before our vacation, and so close to the biggest holiday of the year in East Asia, some of her birthday presents did not make it in before we went to Thailand. It all worked out though. The whole time in Thailand we egged her on by saying, "there is a surprise for you when we get back home." It drove her nuts as to why she could not have them right then.




These dress were made by her Gigi, and this is her Cinderella dress. Every time she wears it she insists on carrying around her Cinderella doll. The band aid on her toe even matches the dress. (We learned the hard way what happens when you do not treat a cut that was made by a fence in Thailand...who knew skin could just peal away like that? She still has her toe, it is no longer infected, but even 3 weeks later it still shows the effects of the past infection - bad parents indeed.)


Notice the matching bear...


...and shoes. Bless the people who live below us.
Who says pink or red does not look good on redheads?


This was her gift from us. Playgrounds with slides and swings are not easily found or are free where we live, and the girl loves to slide. She has been using the slope on my elliptical as a slide, so we figured it was finally time to get her (albeit small) a real one. She does not know it is small and seems to really enjoy it.
