Little Einstein Party!

"We're going on a trip in our favorite rocket ship, zoomin through the skies, Little Einsteins!!!"
Sophia chose her birthday theme this year. When giving ideas about her party theme she would respond with "no" until I said, "Do you want a Little Einstein party?" YAH! This is the only movie she will sit and watch...
I made her cake (got the idea online) and am quite proud of how it turned out!
This year we only invited her cousins and had 9 of them come. They decorated rockets that they used to help them with a mission at the end of the party. The mission was to find Sophia's party bags using the clues given. They followed the clues and found the party bags in Sophia's bed...MISSION COMPLETE!
The gangs all here (except Jackson is sitting by himself at the little table). Lunch time- The menu was a classic kid choice: Hot dogs, macaroni and cheese (homemade), and veggies.
After lunch was presents. I love watching kids open presents. The kids who were watching kept creeping closer and closer to Sophia and the presents. Isn't that a classic kid for ya? TJ thought of a good idea....Get one of those huge baby gates, make a circle with it, and stick the person opening the presents inside so no one else can help them, ha! Sophia didn't mind the help though:)
Sophia liked the happy birthday singing, but then turned her head when it was time to blow out her candles. She had too much attention on her (which by the way was so like me as a kid) so she got some help from Daddy.
I also made cupcakes...yummy!This girl has had a week full of celebrating...Until next year!
