This year I wanted to make the festivities pretty low key - nothing over the top that would require much work for me, but also less overwhelming for Claire. We decided on a few smaller gatherings instead of one big party. On Saturday, Uncle Matt, Aunt Alison, Katie, and Aunt Sally all came over to our house for a birthday brunch. We had some yummy food (thanks everybody for bringing stuff!) and enjoyed spending some time together.
I didn't do a very good job with pictures that day, but luckily Alison took a few for me.
Claire couldn't wait to open her presents - FINALLY we didn't have to convince her to open them! In fact, a few times that morning we heard paper rustling and found her trying to snoop! Katie liked to help open the presents :-)
From Aunt Sally, she got a cute fall outfit, Hello Kitty PJs, princess panties, and a Tinkerbell umbrella. The umbrella was a big hit!!
From Alison, Matt, and Katie, she got this adorable outfit - can't wait for her to wear it next summer! She also got some Halloween goodies, which she's pretty obsessed about the glow sticks. They might not make it in the package until the end of October.
After presents we had "cat cupcakes" that Claire had picked out herself because who doesn't eat cupcakes after having their 2nd breakfast for the day?!
I know Claire really enjoyed playing with Katie and seeing everyone. I overheard her say "Sally, it was so fun for you to come over." Thanks everybody!!!
