Happy Birthday Leah

Time for a check up, Time for a check up....

If you have children than after reading that first line you are now singing the theme song to Doc McStuffins.  Leah turned 4 last Saturday and for her birthday she wanted a Doc McStuffins themed birthday party.  For those of you who don't know, two weeks ago I started a new job at our local hospital which means lots of orientation and full time work until they can get me trained for my position.  Anyway long story sort, this momma needed an easy out of my usual birthday blasts.  Luckily Leah was super excited about having her birthday at the local YMCA!



We gathered in the party room where the rules were explained to the kids and then they were released to the pool for an hour of fun in the water.




Leah loved getting to swim with all her friends and Mommy and Daddy!  After some fun pool time we headed back to the party room for some pizza and birthday celebration.



The birthday girl had requested balloons, so she got balloons...


After pizza it was cake time...


For some reason Leah decided to be shy about blowing out her candles so Mommy and Daddy helped her...


It looks like Chase was helping in the background too.  Leah was super excited to bring cake to each of her friends.


She has such a helpful heart that getting to help pass out cake was one of her highlights of her party.  After cake she enjoyed opening some presents from her friends.


Grammie and Pawpaw got Leah her new favorite doll who she named Leah.  Grammie did a good job of finding a doll that does favor Leah.  Speaking of Grammie and Papaw, they came down just for the occasion but since I couldn't get my act together enough to remember to bring our camera, Grammie took all these pictures with her camera.  Thank you!!  She even captured one of sweet Henley...


Thank you everyone for celebrating Leah's birthday with us.  We can't believe she is already 4 and such a big girl!  Leah's highlights over the last several months include learning to swim without floaties, riding a bike without training wheels, starting 3 day a week preschool, starting dance lessons, learning how to be a big sister, and always being the first to want to help.  We love you Leah, I think 4 is going to be a great year!!
