Preparing an Elmo birthday party just for Elle Marie!

Every October 2, I really take some time off just to think about how Elle Marie will celebrate her next birthday. Funny huh?! Friends call me "stage mom", others "schools best and worst friend", and some tag me as plain OC, idle mom...

This year, again my OC-ness proved to be VERY helpful because I was not expecting to take on a full-time job one month before Elle Marie's birthday. Good thing I am focused and has planned way ahead... SEE? There is beauty in being a stage and OC mom after all!

They say that a child undergo stages in her life... There was a time that Elle Marie loves Barney. She had a "Barney" themed birthday party last year! We took Barney with us to Bangkok, Hongkong and Singapore! Elle Marie also underwent Hi Five-> Iced Age -> Madagascar and the list goes on and on... This year, it is Elmo. It all started with the Elmo DVDs that she watches the whole day... and there's that Elmo song that she sings the whole day! It goes like this.. "Elmo loves his Mama, Elmo loves his Papa, Elmo loves... you" Then Tita Nene bought her two sets of Elmo DVDs (with 3 dvds inside) and the whole Sesame gang (Elmo, Grover, Bert and Ernie)... While, Mama bought her Elmo bag... In short, it is just too obvious that Elle Marie LOVES Elmo and that she should celebrate her 3rd year birtday the Elmo way!
Elle Marie is so lucky to be surrounded by people who truly loves her. Lola Moyette bought her Elmo giveaways! Tita Nene bought her elmo attire that she will wear for her party! Tita Bebe took time off from work and helped pack her elmo goodies! Papa was the financer and driver at the same time:-) Lola Marlyn prepared elmo lollipops! Of course Mama, was the master mind amidst her work load!

Today is October 2. Today marks the first day of preparation for Elle Marie's 4th year birthday party!
