elmo saturday

i am going to apologize in advance for all of the elmo posts coming over the next few weeks as i am collecting supplies for parker's bday party, but...yesterday we got our elmo pinata in the mail!!!

btw, i ordered most of his supplies from birthday express (and be sure to look for a coupon code before placing your order).  with a toddler i have a new affinity for shopping online!

here is the all glorious 2 ft. tall pinata (it is pull string, which is safer for the lil' kids and also preserves elmo so he can be used as a room decoration later).

 parker wanted to pose beside elmo...you can't tell but he is saying "cheeeese" here, so sweet.

 the elmo pinata was the highlight of his day.  i can't count the # of times parker chirped "elmo!" today.  he even cried when i would not let him take him in his bed for night night.

 he kept going up to elmo and hugging and kissing him (and maybe hitting and kicking him a few times).  muah!!

 ahhh!!  let's get the party started, momma!!

 and there you have our day (plus yoga, ku watch party, friends' surprise party and a neighbor's bday party)...but elmo was definitely parker's favorite part!!!

love yall!  sweet dreams and rock chalk!  it's almost tournament time baby!
