She loves the scooter! She spent an hour riding in our driveway and then we went to my in-laws' and she spent another hour riding in their driveway. She's such an appreciative child that it's a joy to give her things. We'll need to go this week or next to get her fitted for a new helmet as she's outgrown her last one. She's going for a black skater one so she can decorate it with stickers. In the meantime, she's only allowed to ride in the driveway or backyard and cannot go very fast.

As mentioned, my mom did come over and brought Tabitha's gifts and all of them were a big hit. One very cool item is a kit to make your own super-bounce balls. Since Tabitha collects super-bounce balls, she can't wait to get started on it. I'm the party pooper though and said not today.

After Tabs is in bed tonight, Chris and I will be decorating the dining room with streamers and a birthday banner. We'll also get her Build-a-Bears dressed in their birthday gear to be waiting for her in the morning with two of her wrapped gifts. We're not giving her the Gameboy until after Disneyland in the evening.

Now, send all the no-labor vibes you can so that my children do not share a birthday!
