American Girls

Ever since the American Girl store opened here, I have been dying to take the girls for a special tea party. We needed an outing today, and the girl's allergies are SO bad that it needed to be inside, so we went for tea. Oh my...you would have thought they had died and gone to heaven!! They LOVED it!!! We spent at least an hour downstairs just drooling over all the dolls and doll accessories! Alice Anne loved looking at the dolls just as much as Hannah did! Alice Anne said, "WOW...bebe!!" and then laughed at every baby she saw.

Then we went upstairs to eat and when I told Hannah she could pick out a doll to sit next to her at the table, I saw the most excited looking smile on her face that I have ever seen! It took her about 15 minutes to pick the perfect doll and then she helped Alice Anne pick hers. Our lunch was perfect...pink lemonade, chicken tenders, fruit and a pink milkshake with whip cream, sprinkles and a cherry on top. And, we were the only ones in the restaurant and they had some birthday song playing and of course Hannah picked up on it real fast. So, Hannah decided that it was her babies birthday and started singing Happy Birthday to her really loud and all of the waiters came over and started singing with her. It was really cute!! Fun, fun morning!!! Made me wonder what in the world I would do with a boy?!?! Guess he'd have to learn to like baby dolls and tea parties!!

Alice Anne was so proud that she got her OWN pink lemonade!!

Hannah said, "Mommy, I really need to take her home!"

WOW!!! Alice Anne got one, too, but I couldn't take her pic or the milkshake would have been in her lap!
