Finally. Something to Obsess About.

Dee’s first birthday is less than three months away and I’m starting to contemplate what I’d like to do to celebrate.   I guess I should probably consult Scott at some point, since she’s 50% his to shower with love and affection {Shanny, if you’re reading this, let’s talk about that, okay?} but I promised Eva that she could select the “theme.”   (Because as we reviewed in my Bat Mitzvah post, all self respecting birthday extravaganza’s have themes, no?)   Eva is still mulling it over.   She has until Saturday to pitch her top three ideas.    Eva is very methodical about these sorts of things.

Anyway, my first bit of birthday party inspiration came in the form of this invitation for…I think a picnic first birthday party?   I stumbled across it on the blog of ultra talented Peruvian artist and illustrator Daniela Carvalhoh, which I can’t understand a word of (okay a word or two maybe) but could spend hours on nonetheless.

I think I’m going to attempt to lift and twist this beauty into our own creation.   Just as soon as Eva decides on that theme.

WHUUUUUUUUUT!??!?!? LESS THAN 3 MONTHS ALREADY?!?!? Omg that is insane.

I am currently obsessing too! Except I only have about 3 weeks to go!

Our kids are just a few weeks apart. .. I have also recently begun to obsess over the 1st birthday. My husband's opinion was that he won't even remember, so what's the point? I said, "Hey, it's a party for us too! We get to celebrate a year of being parents & having this guy in our life!!" I am doing a picnic theme (coincidentally) haha, I'm gonna hop over to that blog and see what there is to see.

I've got SIX months until Everly's first and I've already got a notepad with a bajillion ideas. Remember when our B-day parties were a cake and a few cone hats?

Can't wait to see what you come up with, I'm hoping I can just wittle my list down to a top five before the big day comes!
