We were very excited to be able to throw Molly a birthday party this year after a weird previous year where everyone was social distancing due to Covid-19. Last year we surprised she and Bode with a bounce house in the back yard to try to make their birthdays a little more special. She loved it so much we decided to do it again this year for her party! We were lucky and had great weather.
Molly and I laying in the bounce house together after the party. I remember thinking how tired I was and just wanted to take a nap in the bounce house. haha
After her party, she chose Tucanos for dinner with the fam before heading home for cake and presents.
Molly loves Hello Kitty, and even more so after visiting the Hello Kitty store at Universal Studios in Orlando on our trip. She decided she wanted a Hello Kitty cake and after some googling, here's what I came up with. It was simple, and she loved it!
She got lots of nice presents, but the biggest surprise and her favorite (and mine) was my old American Girl doll, Molly, that I restored for her! I cleaned her up and fixed her hair after watching some tutorials online. She turned out so great! We bought her a few new outfits, and I even sewed her a little dress that matches Molly's Easter dress.
The other big present Molly was really excited about was her new "big girl bed." She'd been using her crib that converted to a toddler bed, but was getting so tall her feet nearly touched the end. We ordered her a cute new daybed and she loves it!
Last night in her toddler bed:
Big girl bed!
A few pictures I took to mark Molly's 5th birthday
And Molly's 5-year questionnaire.
I love this girl so much.
