"Leia, can you spell CAT for me?"
"C - A - OUCH"
She didn't shed a tear although I could see she had to fight it for a few seconds. And then Leia decided she wanted to go to the Chinese Buffet for lunch/dinner. Normally we get asked how old the children are when we go in. I said 8, 6 and 4 instead of 7, 6, and 4. Leia was delighted that she gets to be 8 a couple of days early.
Now none of this means we won't have a mini shindig on Monday. I decided I couldn't stand another Walmart/Target cake with copious amounts of buttercream icing so this week I went to Baskin Robbins and ordered an icecream cake for her. It's actually quite sad how much I'm looking forward to having a piece. And of course there's the Dancing with the Stars finale which Leia and I will cuddle up on the couch for.
And we are in the home stretch before Mum, Rachel and Max arrive. All there is to say about that is that I am beyond excited. Anticipation is sweet!

How cute is this bunny? I had no idea you could get Sketchers for stuffed animals.

My soon to be 8 year old. I'm sure you can understand why I'm feeling a little old today!

Hope we can see pictures of the ice cream cake before it's all gone! LOL
Then pictures of the baptism. How amazing that she's 8 years old already!
