Presents & Cake

After dinner we went back home for Ava's favorite part of the day.  She wanted to open her presents as soon as she saw them wrapped a few days before.  She had also been talking about her cake for a couple months prior (no pressure).  Ava was so happy and enjoyed every presents and eating her special cake.  What a blessing it is to have such a sweet and wonderful little girl.

I LOVE YOU "Sweets"!

For part of Rich's gift I made him some Star Wars pajama pants.  Ava helped me a little too.

Ava gave Rich a Mario Kart Kinex set.  She told him he had to share with her.

Ava being silly.  She is just so cute!

Ava loves to rip open her presents.  This was a surprise hit of the night.  It is a rock digging (archaeology) kit.  I bought it last minute thinking it would be fun and too my surprise she talked about doing it the rest of the night.

Kim (Ava's birth mom) sent her some presents in the mail.  She got a beautiful princess costume, crown, and light up shoes.  She also got a princess kitchen timer and a cookbook.  She was really excited about the cookbook and decided she wants to make the cornbread...this girl loves her some cornbread.

Ava completely unwound this bow.  It was funny and unnecessary to getting the present open.  She just thought it was fun.

This was also another last minute gift that has been a big hit.  Ava loves her other dance game, but this is Disney Just Dance.  She LOVES it and is pretty good.

Ava talked about wanting this Tic Toc Crocodile flashlight before Christmas.  She has a thing for flashlights and this one makes noise.

Yes, I know Ava is blurry.  I use a tripod, but couldn't get her to stay still.

Ava started eating the cake before we could cut it.

I love the look on her face.  It made me feel good to know I made my Ava so happy.
