The Stewart Family: The Birthday Girl is 3!

On February 11, Ellison turned 3 years old! Seriously, did I not JUST have her? Will and I spent the day with her doing all the things she wanted to do. She decided that she wanted to go to Imagine That ( a bounce house in Southside) and then go eat lunch at her favorite restaurant, Pruett's. It was so much fun spending the day with her and devoting all of our time and attention just on her. William stayed with his Gigi. He'll get his turn in April.

The next day was her birthday party. We decided to have a kindermusik birthday party this year. It was so much fun. We hired Kelly Carr (she was fabulous) to come and sing songs and play music with all of Ellison's friends. It was so cute and they all seemed to have a lot of fun! After the music, the kids ate chick-fil-a nuggets, chips and dip, and some fruit. I had to at least have something somewhat healthy. We then sang happy birthday to the birthday girl, watched her blow out her candles and ate some really good cake! The cake was shaped like a guitar and was frosted in pink. Ellison chose the colors and the flavor of the cake (CHOCOLATE)! It was really cute...

Singing songs with Annie, Cooper and Avery

Dancing! Her favorite thing to do!

We decided to open her gifts at home since little ones tend to have the attention span of a fly. I like that we did that this year because it allowed all of her friends to just have fun and not have to sit while she opened her gifts. Plus, she was able to really see what everyone got her and not be distracted with craziness of the party. She got A LOT of princess stuff. She is all about being a princess and was very excited! She got some books, clothes, and barbies too. Her favorite gift was the disney princess trunk that Will and I got for her. It is full of disney dress up clothes. We also bought her a crown, because every princess needs a crown, and some shoes because we all know an outfit isn't complete without some cute heels!
