Party, Party, Party!


Last Sunday, I took Little K to a long-time friend's birthday party. Well, let me restate that. The moms are long-time friends. We got to know each other in 1980 when I was in first grade. Any ways, Little K & I went to the party at the Pink Pokka Dot Room on 19th Street in the Heights. Girls can have dress up princess parties here or in this case a "Fancy Nancy" party with guest visitor Hannah Montana. The guests first picked out their attire from a rack of fancy dresses. In typical fashion, Little K chose the gold sparkles seen in the photo here. Next up, the staff gave Little K quite a hair do. (I may find my next hair stylist there.) Then, the make-up came to adorn my 3-year-old's face, followed by nail polish -- purple (her choice, not mine but whatever).

The guests then sang "Happy Birthday" to the honoree and enjoyed tea and cupcakes. (Little K passed on the cake as usual). After that, the shop owner read to "Fancy Nancy" books to the guests, which made me giggle.
Next, the room changed into a dance party and my sweet Little K turned into a disco momma! A pretend Hannah Montana began singing and dancing on a makeshift stage and my little one got her groove on. It was hillarious. Who knew Little K could move like that when moments before she didn't even know who Hannah Montana was?! This party was a blast... for us all!
