Claire's fourth birthday party was on Saturday. Honestly, she'd rather it be someone else's birthday party so she can just be an attendee and not the center of attention. But alas, the focus is on her one day each year.
She wanted the colors to be pink and purple. I asked her if she wanted cupcakes or a cake and she answered, "I want a cake, with pink frosting, and pink and purple sprinkles!"
(I made my famous cookie dough truffles because certain adult attendees count on them.)
So that's exactly what she got! Good thing I did a trial run last Wednesday because the second attempt turned out much better!
Max looked dashing in his pink polo. Could they pass for twins?
Such a baby guy, he took a break from the action to give Maverick some loving.
Without me even asking, Claire told me she wanted to wear a pink shirt with purple ruffles on the bottom for her party. It was a tall order but Nana pulled through! (Side note- Claire has decided to give Nana a nickname and now calls her "Nan". It's hilarious.)
I die for this boy.
It is so fun and easy to host the party at her gymnastics center! And a total bonus that I got a half-price deal for it!
Brody, Claire, and Kiera walking across the balance beam. Claire is 9 days older than Kiera and 9 months older than Brody.
Claire made it known for several days leading up to the party that she did not want anyone to sing "Happy Birthday" to her. During her first birthday party, our singing made her bawl so perhaps there is residual trauma? So instead, we all just said "Happy Birthday Claire" on the count of three. You can see she still wasn't so pleased.
But once Brody and Cambrie joined her, she was all smiles again.
Ami told me that Brody is going to insist on chaperoning Claire's first date. I hope and pray they will always have a close relationship as they grow older.
Sweet Landon! I just love this kid. He has such a fun personality and is obsessed with his best pals "Hair" and "Mac" (Claire and Max).
