A princess party for our princess

 
Y'all.  SO many pictures, you've been warned.  I'd rather just overkill it in one post then break it up though.  My sweet girl had the BEST birthday, she was SO excited all day and was fascinated by all the decorations.  Each time I would put something new up, her little eyes lit up...especially when we brought the balloons in.  I scaled it down majorly this year, we had a smaller party with only 8 little girls.  It was perfect though, we did hair, make up, nails and dress up!  All the little girls were in heaven...  we had a dance party...and then they all flipped when ELSA walked in.  Of course, Colls was the only one there who was super shy and scared of Elsa at first, but she eventually warmed up:)  I think all of the little girls enjoyed themselves and Colls hasn't stopped talking about it since, soooo I'd say it was a success!
 
Can you EVEN believe this cake?  It is THE most beautiful cake I have ever seen, my sister in law is so ridiculously talented...if you are local and want her number, let me know!
 
 
This is where the "salon" set up was....




Cake, lemonade, trail mix and a princess castle!

Love these invitations I found on Etsy.
I have to post more than one picture of this beauty....



I made these crowns...I REPEAT, I made these crowns!!!  I am NOT crafty,  I do not "do" DIY...  but for some reason, I wanted to try these...some turned out really cute, some a little funky, but all in all... I think I achieved the look I was going for.


Dresses for all the princesses
My sweet princess, who decided she wanted to wear her Elsa dress AND her fairy wings;-) She does this thing now when I tell her to smile, where she cocks her head to the side...silly.

sweet cousins
the boys were there too!


getting beauty-fied









ELSA!!  She was so good, she read a story, sang LET IT GO, painted faces AND brought the birthday girl a present, GREAT JOB "practically perfect princess parties."
















This and her trampoline are for sure the number ONE birthday presents...my parents got her this karaoke machine, and my little boo LOVES it.
and just a little Thomas cuteness for you.

What's in a name?

I tell ya, the name game is HARD. Really hard. I never thought that I'd be 27 years old and pregnant and not know what I wanted to name my child. I *think* we have come up with the one , but I'm not quite ready to put it out for the world to see...you know, don't want to many people rushing to get monogrammed bubbles. Ha! Jokes! Anyways...so I can look back and remember what all we went thru to come up with a name in 20 years I am going to lay it all out there. I'll start with saying I want a family name to be somewhere in my children's names. It doesn't have to be a first name, but some name in the child's name I want to be from a family member/family. We'll start with boys names, because they got taken off the table when we found out it was a GIRL..this will be short. Mikey's middle name is Thomas...his grandfather's name is Thomas. So...we always said Thomas would be in our son's name. I always thought it would be cool to do a Tho...

Takeover Tuesday

Surprise Caro, guess who hacked into your blog! I know what you are saying to yourself...I can’t believe it’s taken this long for me to mess with you on here. For those of you who haven’t figured it out yet, this obviously is not your sweet Caroline, this is her wonderful, sarcastic, fun loving, baby daddy (or is it babies’ daddy now?), also known as her husband. (Caro at her finest, throwing me a great 25th birthday celebration) Where do I begin…. I guess we can talk about how this marital bliss came to be before we talk about the author of this blog and how amazing she. Caroline has been the love of my life for as long as I can remember, we were actually first grade boyfriend and girlfriend if you can believe it. After first grade, there was the great divide, as both of us went to different schools the following year. Finally, after 10 agonizing, lonely years we were reunited at a house party our senior year in high school. I, naturally, had always kept an eye on her throughou...

25 weeks....yesterday!

Holy moly!!!! Baby Girl is doing some maaaayjah GROWING:) How far along? 25 weeks. Size of the baby? 13.5 inches and a pound and a half, grow baby girl, grow! Also known as an “average rutabaga”…um, okay. I’ll take Baby Center’s word for it. Maternity Clothes? Same as last week. My wardrobe is shrinking! I have bought several maternity tops, but most of them still look way too big. Still haven’t made the transition to maternity pants even though the bella band aggravates me sometimes. It’s the worst with my work pants, it constantly rolls down. I need to just suck it up and make the switch. Stretch Marks? None have appeared yet, still using the Palmer’s and Bio Oil a few times a week. Movement? Same. It’s so crazy how hard my belly gets at night, it is like she is all knotted up in one place. And the BELLY gets insanely BIG at night! Sleep? Eh…it’s been okay lately. I toss and turn a bunch. Food Cravings? Nothing crazy yet. I have been eating lots of peanu...
