Stephen seemed to want one, too, but then it turned out he just wanted to play with the packaging.
As another present, I took Emmie to her first movie in a theatre, Astro Boy. She insisted on wearing her new Dora backpack. (Notice, also, Gregory's Astro Boy action figure.)
The movie, I gotta say, wasn't that great, and wasn't especially well suited for kids. Emmie sat on my lap during the scary parts. There's just nothing like a good Pixar film, these days.
After the movie and baths, it was time for her birthday cake. She asked for a pony cake, and we didn't really want to spend money on a cake that wouldn't even taste very good, so we used our imagination:
Ok, we need to work on our imagination, but it worked for her!
Then there were a few more presents, which Gregory was particularly interested in helping open:
Three years old. Wow. Before we know we, she'll be out of her terrible twos!
