We had been planning Carlee's party for a few months now. Although I refused to go over the top and spend a ton of money, I wanted it to be a nice party (and we were expecting close to 100 guests)! I didn't stress about the small details...I got to enjoy the party. The most stressful part was trying to control the chaos of the kids "helping" open Carlee's gifts. Overall, the party was a huge success. Carlee was a trooper for missing her afternoon nap. A lot of people saw our house for the first time so it was also a housewarming (sorta). Carlee got a ton of generous gifts. The last of the guests didn't leave until after 9pm (and the party started at noon!) I'd say that Carlee had a pretty good birthday party!
The backyard all set up.
Birthday girl!!! She loved crawling in the jumper!
that's one giant pinata
Carlee didn't dig into the cake like I thought she would. She put her fingers in the frosting then put her hand over to the side to get the frosting off. She tasted a little but wasn't really into it. maybe she won't like sweets! (I can't only hope.)
She played with this one toy while Mommy and everyone else opened up the other gifts.
I think its a sign you had too much candy/ toys in the pinata when the kids can pose, take a picture, fill up multiple bags, and walk away and come back and there's still candy on the ground.
The happy birthday girl. She may have been oblivious that all the commotion was for her, but she had fun. We are fortunate to have such great family and friends to share our daughter's birthday with!!
