We got there early, but I was still nervous someone had arrived before us that we had invited and they would be standing there.
Waiting.
But that was not the case, we had arrived in plenty of time to greet our guests.
It took awhile to get our hands stamped and find the party planner to guide us to our table and give us the run-down of what was to happen next.
And it was LOUD at this party so it took a bit for the planner and I to understand each other.
"Did you look at the menu? Do you know what you want to order?"
"WHAT? I ordered online, don't you have that on your sheet?"
"Oh yeah. Do you still WANT that?"
"Ummm, yeah."
not boding well for this party.
"Can we get her in the ticket blaster asap?"
"Sure, I will be right back."
~15 minutes later
"Okay, we can get her in the ticket blaster now!" smiling
"Uh, now I have to go FIND her."
And on and on it went - being pushed and pulled around by our party planner at Chuck E. Cheese. I mean, really? You can't do some of the stuff WHEN I want it done? Why? Why? Please tell me why?
But - we had wonderful turnout of GREAT friends.
The people ate ALL the food - save a few pieces of cake and celery sticks.
Boo Boo was DELIGHTED with everything and so HAPPY her friend Jordan had joined us!
So, when I finally got into the car with a tired and happy five year old and my tired and not cranky husband, I was relieved it was all over.
anyone want about 140 Chuck E. Cheese tokens? ;P

I cannot believe this picture was taken nearly four years ago when we first came home from the hospital. My mother and I were trying to figure out what was wrong...she was so mad about something! I loved that little froggie outfit - if it was clean, she wore it.
This is what I usually saw looking up at me on maternity leave...the I am hungry and WIDE AWAKE face. :) I took many pictures like this one.
Mornings as she was able to sit up - and afternoons when she woke from a nap - I was greated usually with a smile. She never used to be crabby when she woke up; I wonder when that changed?
Booger Lickin' Good!
Learning cool stuff - like my feet smell.
She is always making faces - just ALWAYS! Look at the evidence in ALL the picutes...
I used to have to MAKE her pose...that changed. (I loved that shirt and those cute Ecco Shoes!)
Hoppy Easter - or "The Bunny Santa" is coming to town...
I see this face A LOT! It says, "Mom, you are NOT serious."
Tired Pooker.
Again, she is embarrassed by me at a YOUNG age...
Did someone fart?
Peek-A-Boo! I see you...
Quite often she puts her hands to her face, fingers in mouth, when taking photos. It has begun to annoy me.... 
I am still not sure if she was annoyed, or confused. ;)
This one says, "PLEASE can I have it?"
She gets TOTALLY excited by ANY present or treat. 
She TRIES to be a mother hen...
I love my family a lot. I will sit with EVERYONE!
When I get tired...I get tired.
Such a happy face...I love this face.
BLAH!
