Ashley's 4th Birthday - Part 1

She has been so super looking forward to this day. Every day for the last month she was asking me if it's her birthday yet.
On the morning of her 4th birthday her brothers woke her up! Very early in the morning since Oliver had to catch his school bus at 7:05am.

Very sleepy but she was very pleased to find a huge Ariel birthday banner!

Unfortunately everything was quite rushed - here are the birthday pancakes with a big 4 on top. 

She was too distracted by the piles of presents in front of the pancakes...

Time for her to get wild and open all the presents !!! Since we were in NZ in March the presents from her Kiwi family were already opened but I rewrapped them so that she had lots to open :)

It was a very busy day for the birthday princess. She had to get into her cute dress then walk to school (she was wearing the same outfit last year at her special high-tea party too, I wonder if she has grown much or not...).

Once we arrived, she got to do the birthday cake with her classmates. Luca and her best friend Sakura joined in too. 

Super smile from the super birthday girl :) :) :)

The whole class singing Happy Birthday to her!

I also got in the photo for a change! Happy Birthday Ashley!!!

The celebration continued after Kindy too. She got to spend the whole afternoon at the indoor playground with her best friend Frida from her class!! Please read the next post about her fun birthday playdate :)
