Mattie chose to celebrate her birthday with a trip to the movies followed by pizza, cake and a sleepover! We had a great group of well-behaved girls and I enjoyed the evening. I will admit that I was pretty tired the next day. I insist that the girls go to sleep since I don't think 7 and 8 year olds should stay up until 2am. I managed to get a giggling Mattie and a loud Gabrielle to go to sleep between 11 and 11:30. Caroline and Olivia fell asleep about 30 minutes earlier. The problem was with Cebu. He woke at our weekday hour of 6:20 and proceeded to investigate the new people sleeping in his house. Soooooooooo...our day started about 2 hours earlier than I had hoped and about 3 hours earlier than needed.
Pizza, cake and ice-cream were served on our girlie dishes in the dining room.
Mattie loves the PowerPuff Girls and I was lucky enough to find a from-home baker who made a custom cake.
Leaving home to go to the movie theater. Mattie is proudly displaying her newly legal ability to opt-out of a car seat of any kind. Her nervous mother made her get back in the half booster for the ride home!! Luckily we did notice that she didn't have the seat belt on correctly!
