Vanessa's Birthday

This was an exciting birthday for Vanessa. She had a very clear picture of what she wanted and she really consistently stuck with her decisions. We spent several days making a rabbit cage out of an armoir we already had. Then, the day before her birthday we went and picked up her bunny.
The morning of her birthday, the kids and I went to the mall to get her ears pierced. She was so sure she wanted this. As they got the guns out to pierce, she started to get really nervous. She was so brave until they did it and then let a little sob out. It made me feel like I should have discouraged her from wanting to get them pierced. She did recover and it has been fine. Although we are now two months out and her ears are still tender and it still hurts if they get bumped.
That evening we opened gifts, which mostly consisted of bunny supplies and a new bike.





 On Saturday, we had a friend party. We had pizza first, then played a few games outside, including the much anticipated pinata. Then we opened presents and had cake. It was a very fun couple of days and Vanessa was very spoiled. I think we made up for moving over her birthday last year.
