Happy Birthday, Gabriela!

After a day at the zoo, we had Gabriela's special birthday dinner - pizza!  She enjoyed it so much, she had three pieces! We were glad to have a birthday celebration with Chaney, Beau and Nate and Meliss, especially since they missed the party over the weekend.
And here is her birthday dessert - Mixed berry shortcakes (strawberries, blackberries and blueberries) with homemade blackberry whipped cream! 
I still can't get over how wonderful her birthday crown turned out!  Meliss is so awesome.  She and I made it together.
 
Every little monkey needs a giant banana present to open at their party, right?
It's a girl sock monkey that Auntie Meliss made!  Monkey is so darling with that little pink bow on her head.  Gabriela named her Baby. 
What's this? Another handmade gift from Auntie Meliss?  Gabriela loves her monkey crayon case.  She can keep markers or crayons and coloring books in it! 
 
You are the best, Auntie Liss!  (Don't you just love how Gabriela is clutching her gifts!?!?)
In her Monkey PJs from Keady, checking out the goodie bag contents.  I love you, Birthday Girl!
