We finished the week off celebrating Noelle’s birthday at the American Girl Bistro!

This was Noelle’s very first visit, and the wait was so worth it!!!

These sisters love each other very much! 

 

Let me start at the very beginning… these are pictures of one excited little girl walking up to the store!

 

 

Anna Kate banged on the front window when we walked up, squealing when she saw all the dolls in the window!  This is her first visit too!

 

The whole experience is just so over the top!  (in a good, classy way) In the restrooms, they have these doll holders, and they had dolls lined up getting their hair done in the salon.  I felt like I had 4 girls the night before because it took me forever to do Lily’s hair and help Noelle get her all “dolled” up!

 

Taking it all in and doing some pre-party shopping with Poppa!

Oh my goodness!  She melts my heart every time I look at her! (this is your car seat pic for the day, Michael Pond) 🙂

John was in Phoenix last week, but we LOVED having Fancy Nancy brunch with us! 

Someone’s talking to us… and rolling over too, but that’s another post!

 

We had reservations for our cousins to come with us, but since they went back to Japan, we let Noelle invite one friend, and she picked Bailey, her very first friend!

Thanks for coming Poppa and Rara! 

Birthday girls, because of course, it’s Lily’s birthday too!

  

Thank you for everything Amanda!  Words can’t describe what you mean to me!

Anna Kate is so 2!  She is either extremely happy or extremely sad, and today I was relishing in the former!

 

Princess punch!

Two peas in a pod!

 

  

Go girl!

Birthday kiss!

Hope you had a great birthday week celebrating all of your favorite things, Noelle!  We love you to the moon and back, and then some!!!
