Here she is busy at work. On Thursday, her actual birthday, we went to see Sesame Street Live. It was great. The name of the show was "Elmo's Green Thumb". Both of the kids loved it. We met some friends with kids of similar ages. Chelsea danced like crazy and yelled hello at each muppet. She was so excited.
On Friday evening we had her birthday party. We invited friends and family. The original plan was to have it in the yard with a campfire and marshmallows. Of course...it POURED! So all of these people had to squeeze into our tiny house. We made the best of it and used every square inch of every room and had a great time. She is going to be a stylish little girl this winter with her princess costumes and her outfits. She got a baby doll which she loved. After each present she would say, "I want some more!" She was happy when she was finally able to take the princess figurines off the top of the cake. 
Thanks to Grandma BJ, Cousin Erica, and Daddy, we have lots of pictures of the party. Everyone had a great time.
At one point there was a crowd on my bed (good thing it is king-sized). They were watching a movie and having fun. 
Now it is Saturday. I have done dishes and my husband has dismantled all of the folding tables and chairs. I have searched the house for leftover juiceboxes and plates and cleaned them up. Since we were hanging out at home we decided to let Chelsea have a try with her big-girl undies. The end result was predictable and I had to clean up a little puddle on the floor, but she was very proud of her Elmo undies. Here she is showing them off for the camera! I guess we can check this birthday off as a huge success.
