of birthdays and birthday gifts

Click here to see a few of the photos Elizabeth Wiggs took at Autumn's birthday party. There's some more great ones that I'll probably post when I get them but she's posted a great sampling.

Also, A Very Monkey Tea Party:


Uncle Brad and Aunt Lauren bought this for Autumn and it's been a huge hit with her! She will sit down and insistently pat the floor saying, "Sit! SIT!" until I sit and then she'll serve me tea, quite properly, for a ridiculously long time. Haha.


She'll also take the tea party on the road. Autumn puts the tea set in her backpack or in her doll stroller or the doll carrier and strolls/carries it around, stopping occasionally for a pretend sip. :D


Funny enough, she likes real tea. I think I've mentioned this before, but we have tea almost every morning together. She's graduated to a cup now, though.
