Ella's birthday party...

This afternoon we went to Ella's 3rd birthday party... Grace bounded up the yard and was inside making herself at home before I could bat an eye! Eva hung on to me, she tried playing with the big kids when she could but they were so fast she had a hard time keeping up, especially with all the people. Not to mention she was tired, not much of a nap, the party started at 3:00 p.m.

It was so cute and sad though, b/c there was a 10 month old baby girl at the party, and Eva's not used to seeing too many "little people" - and this little person, was nearly the same size as she is! So the little girl kept animatedly talking to her, so Eva (sweet Eva, not the stinker who bites!) wanted to give her a hug. Every time Eva went to give her a hug, the little girl would start squawking and yelling at Eva. The mother kept apologizing saying, "she's not used to little people hugging, she plays with boys and they hit! I'm so sorry." This went on a round or two, when finally Eva not just looking sad, broke down in tears.... crying - heart broken actually that this little girl didn't return her friendship. Poor thing, I felt so bad for her.

We ended up leaving the party early to go home, I was thinking both girls might get a short nap in, but nope! Only in my dreams:-)
