Sierra's Birthday

Well my baby is 7! I can't believe it! The past 7 years have just flown by - I seriously can't believe it! She had a great day on Saturday. First was her birthday party for the kids at Teddy Bear Stuf'n Factory - it's just like Build A Bear, only about 50 miles closer to where we live. We figured that everyone wouldn't want to drive clear to Build A Bear, so this was the next best thing. The kids had a BLAST - they put stars in the bears instead of hearts, and they had everyone take a star, make a wish, and then put it in Sierra's bear so she has 15 stars in her bear! She thought that was the coolest thing ever.

We had 15 kids there, and they all got to make their own stuffed animal - then we did presents and had treats. It was a fun party, and I really think all of the kids enjoyed it. Sierra loved all of her gifts. She has been complaining lately because she "only" has one Webkinz, and all of her friends have more than her. Well, she must have told EVERYONE that she wanted Webkinz, because every kid in her class that she invited bought her a Webkinz! At least they all got together and talked so they didn't all buy the same ones! The funny thing was that the night before, I had taken her to the mall because she wanted to buy a Webkinz with the money from her great grandparents, and she picked out a really cute raccoon. Well, they had a buy 2 get a pink poodle for free, so I bought 3 more telling her that they were for me, but I was really going to give them to her for her birthday! So between the one she bought, the one she already had, the 3 I bought, and the 4 she got at her party, she now has 9 Webkinz! LOL. As you can see, she is completely fine with that :)

Then that night we had a family party with all of the family here at our house. She wanted a High School Musical cake, so that's what we did. She loved that party too, and fortunately, didn't get any more Webkinz! She did some High School Musical dolls, a Hannah Montana CD, a guitar, and some fun Bratz scrapbooking stuff. All in all, a great birthday for my little one!
