Chopsticks, Fancy Jammies, and Birthday Parties

Alexandra Stone can eat with chopsticks. Yep, that's right, I said chopsticks.

Last night we took her to Pei Wei, which is PF Chang's version of fast food. It's really not very fast... you have to wait forever to get a seat because they are always so darned busy. Anyway, on the tables, they have these canisters of wrapped chopsticks. She thought they were straws and just had to have one. Well, much to her dismay, it was not a straw. So to save the day, I decided to show off my chopstick skills. She loved that. So she decided to try it. She took the ends that were still fused together, dug into her lo-mein, and scooped up a big ol' bite. I laughed my fanny off! I mean, where there's a will there's a way! The girl is very resourceful - a mini McGyver if you ask me.

Last night she got to wear her new jammies (we call them jammy jams). They are too cute. Leopard and Pink and VERY sassy.

Today was Kaylea Arnold's birthday party. Kaylea and Alexandra are best friends. They have been to daycare together ever since Kaylea started (she's 3 months younger than Alexandra). She's actually a new year's eve baby, but her party was today. She was a premie by about 6 weeks, but she's actually a little bigger (and has A LOT more hair) than Allee. They had so much fun today and were very fun to watch.

All in all it has been a very entertaining weekend.

Before I sign off, I just wanted to say thank you to all of the amazing ladies who have stopped by to say Hello by way of the Vintage Nest. It has been so much fun to meet all of you!

Cheers!

That was a great little sled you found and I like the wrapping paper too.It almost looks flocked and I think you could use it for all sorts of occasions. Have a great week..Linda
