When Marissa was born I signed here up w/Toyrus' Birthday Club. Each year Geoffrey calls to wish her a Happy Birthday, and each year Marissa also receives a birthday card enclosed w/a gift card. The first year $1.00, second $2.00, third $3.00, fourth $3.00 - I wonder if that was an error, of if the amount ever exceeds $3.00(?).
I asked her what she thought she'd buy, and w/out hesitation said "A BIG Polly Doll House", I giggled and reminded her that she only had $21.00 ($18.00 thanks to the Easter Bunny).
As we got dressed-up for our big day at Toysrus, I surprised Marissa w/Tinkerbell panties, Tinkerbell earrings (actually nail stickers), a pair of shoes that she fell in love w/at Target (which I secretly purchased), and a Purple flower balloon! Sierra was surprisingly understanding and excited for Marissa singing "Happy Mommy" while pointing toward Marissa.
Once we arrived the staff sang Happy Birthday on the loud speaker.
Marissa was given a crown, stickers (plus extras to share w/Sierra!) and a Geoffrey Birthday Balloon!

Marissa handed the item to the sales clerk. While handing the gift card, she nervously asked me to help count out the remaining $15.00. She's so amazing - so proud of her!
As I made a seperate purchase the girls amused themselves w/this swimming pool - almost convincing me to include it w/my purchase - such will power I have (for today atleast, I'll be back before summer to buy it - HA!)!
Lastly, Kermit joined them for a joy ride!
Next, Marissa requested "the Star's Restaurant" (better known as Carl's Jr.), for lunch.
The girls playing in the Jungle!
Surprised Marissa is sleeping??? Not to worry, she's well aware of more to come once daddy gets home from work!
