Chandler's 3rd Birthday - Sophia Style!


Chandler the 1st!

I really try my hardest to plan birthday parties based on my children's personalities and things that they just really love.  For Chandler this year, we got it JUST RIGHT!
I've never seen this child so happy (and she's usually pretty happy so that says a lot)!
 As soon as she woke up, we let her open her first present.  It was a present from Eddie and I that we thought would get her day off to the perfect start.
 And it did!  Her very own Sophia the 1st dress, shoes, amulet and tiara that she could wear to her Sophia the first party later that day.
After that, she headed off to the donut shop with Daddy, Brooklyn, Gie-gie and Big Bird (Eddie's parents)
I had her take her gown off before she left so she would get sticky donut on it, and she was fine with that, but she did want to at least wear the shoes.  =)
 Of course, she picked a pink donut with sprinkles on it and some chocolate milk.
 And then the workers surprised her with an extra basket of pink donut holes.
How nice was that?!?
 And of course it was all made even better because her best friend, Brooklyn, was there to share it all with her!
 And before they left, she got to do one more of her favorite things...go for a "ride" on the door as it opens.  So simple, but it makes both of the girls so happy!
While they were out doing that, I was at home getting ready with this little guy!!
 And then Chandler got all ready for the party herself!

 And, of course, they watched Sophia the First while they waited for it to be party time.
 Check out how pretty and shiny and long Chan's hair is in the back!  I would KILL for her hair!
 And, of course, she tore her eyes away from the TV to admire her own amulet.
Once she was at the party, she was sure to show her new amulet to each and every guest that arrived.

Complete with some of Chandler's VERY favorite snacks
 Grapes, Goldfish, Carrots and Ranch
And, of course, cupcakes for dessert

 Let the party begin!
 First, she got to get her nails painted...probably in Chan's top 5 things that she loves in life!
 They asked her what colors she wanted and she could have as many as she wanted.  
She chose pink and sparkly pink.
Next up?
Make-up


And Finally?  Hair!
 Also, probably in her Top 5 things in life, would be to have her hair braided.

 And this face says it all!

Her party guests got all dolled up, too!
They all got to choose one of these fabulous gowns!
 And get their hair make-up and nails done, too.
 Check-out Brooklyn's super-fancy do!
When everyone was done, they got to walk out on the runway one at a time for their very own fashion show!

 Here is B striking her best pose!
Her favorites were the same as Chandler's favorites.
All of the girl party guests...there were 2 boys there, too, but they didn't want to be in the group photo.
 The girls aren't the only ones who were having fun, though.

 Gibson was busy macking on all the ladies.  =)

After the fashion show, it was time for pizza and Chandler's BIG MOMENT!






 After her cupcake, the party was over, but there was still much more fun ahead!
Ava and Macy came over, she got to skip her nap and open all her presents (many of which were Sophia the first related)!
Then time for a shower and she got to try out her new towel wrap!
 Then put on her new Sophia nightgown and open her grand finale present from the Buie family!
Her very own vanity (AKA heaven for this little girly girl)!!  




It was the perfect ending to a perfect day of fabulousness!
