Hanging Out with Amber

Amber and her 1 week late birthday present!

Amber Rae’s my favourite niece. I remember the first day I saw her 6 years ago. She was born with an awesome mop of hair in a pixie style. Amber used to think she was my friend before she understood what an Aunt was. She also calls me by my nickname Molly, no Aunty either. I missed her birthday last week because I was working on the SSO’s Babies Proms but we more than made up for it today! I love it when it’s just the 2 of us. We have so much fun! Today we went to the movies and Rapunzel 3D had some technical problems so we ended up watching Megamind. We watched it downing a large drink and popcorn (only the sweet ones for Amber). We also went to The Soup Spoon for lunch and shopping at Mini Toons, as well as DIVA accessories. We ended up buying close to $80 worth of accessories – my mini fashionista! After that, a long bus ride back home to make a card for her friend Trisha and Amber’s 1st official mail was posted! EVENTFUL. I wish we had more time together but work keeps me away so much…
