Birthday interviews

I'm going to try something out an idea that I saw on Pinterest. I saw a pin that had mom's interviewing their children every year on their birthdays so that when you look back on the interviews you can see how much their tastes have changed. So, these weren't technically done ON their birthday but the idea is the same. Here are their answers to the questions at ages 3 and 7.
 Because Sloane has a limited vocabulary (although it growing so much every day), I decided to give my answers that I guessed she would choose as well.
Sloane's interview:
 1. What is your favorite color? My answer: Pink. Sloane says Pink is my colo-or any time you give her something that is not pink. Even her cereal bowl must be pink. She wants her room painted pink, pink clothes, and pink EVERYTHING. Sloane's answer: Pink (duh)
 2. What is your favorite toy? My answer: It changes on a weekly basis. Right now it is paper doll sticker books and the shrinky dink maker. She is fickle like her mama. Sloane's answer: doctor set (Sloane was playing with a doctor set during the interview, her viewpoint may have been skewed)
3.What is your favorite fruit? My answer: Definitely strawberries. This girl can kill a carton of strawberries. Sloane's answer: strawberries
4. What is your favorite tv show? My answer: Sophia the Princes and she demands the same episode every time. The one with the trolls. She even picks up a stick and pretends it’s a club like the trolls have and sings their favorite song “Make some Noise.” Sloane's answer: Beauty and the Beast
 5. What is your favorite thing to eat for lunch? My answer: peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, which is unfortunately banned at her school. Ugh! Sloane's answer: yogurt (girl does love her some Greek yogurt)
 6. What is your favorite outfit? My answer: anything pink or a tutu with cowboy boots, natch! Sloane's answer: princess outfit
7. What is your favorite game? My answer: Sloane likes to play games with Finn, as in mess up all of the pieces and aggravate him to death. Sloane's answer: I don’t have a game (lies!)
