a second birthday party!

I really didn't get as many pictures as I could have of the decorating and the set up... I really should have. but here are a few ideas for you. We did a balloon theme - and had many out for the babes to play with and carry around. Those sticks to put balloons on are a wonderful thing for toddler parties!

The birthday shirt! (more about the pattern to come in a future post!)

Birthday plate! I took a dollar store bowl.plate and got out the porcelain pens!

Cupcakes and icing are dairy and egg free - and didn't taste it! SOOO yummy! and the toppers were made on my silhouette and there is a sucker glued in between the papers.

The birthday girl! (trying to get candy off the candy necklace)

Little birthday banner - sorry for the horrible lighting in this pic.

I found a hello kitty birthday set - and had to get it for my girl who loves kitty! made a cute owl package to wrap it in - I'm not a fan of awkward packages and wrapping paper.

And that was my girls 2nd birthday! Her love of balloons, monkeys, and suckers inspired the theme and decor. It was a great day with family, filled my parents kiddie pool up, had a bouncy castle set up for her (yay superstore sale!) and a BBQ for supper. Easy for this preggo to deal with but a blast for a toddler !
