Megan's REAL Birthday

Josh and I both took Friday off so that we could spend Megan's birthday all together.  We'd been telling her that her birthday was coming up and she didn't really understand since she had already had her party but she was all about making more cake and doing more fun stuff!  She woke up a little early that day and so Josh went in to tell her she needed to go back to sleep.  He told her that once she woke up we'd do anything she wanted.  She said, "Gymnastics? I go gymnastics?"  When she woke up again and came into our room we sang Happy Birthday to her and then she immediately wanted to decorate her cake.


Unfortunately the gymnastics open gyms in the area didn't work with our movie time so we decided to take her to Pump it Up Jr. for a little bit to get some energy out.




Then it was off to the movie.  We let her pick out her own candy and she got her own little lemonade to drink and some popcorn to share with mom and dad.  She got all set up in her chair and was ready to go.  After every preview she said, "Toy Story?" and I would say, "Almost!"  She was so excited for it to start and the minute it did, she started quoting the movie.  Josh and I laughed.  We also realized where she gets a couple of her not so sweet words that we've been wondering about.  She recently told us to shut up and we looked at each other like where the heck did she get that?  Well folks, it's Toy Story.  At least that's one I don't have to blame myself for.  She did really well during the movie though and sat pretty still for about 3/4 of it and then she was up and moving around. 



She kept her 3D glasses on for awhile, longer than we though, and then gave up on them.

After the movie we came home and ALL took naps.  When we woke up we were suprised by a visit from Kathy and Lesly and decided to go down the street for dinner at Mazatlan.  Megan got a Happy Birthday song there too because Kathy told them it was her birthday without any of us knowing it.  She loved that!  They had also brought Megan a cupcake so we went back to the house and she got another song and ANOTHER candle.  I think she had the best birthday(s) ever!!
