Find of The Day

Design Mom one of my favorite blogs to read Just made this
post

And boy do I want one!
if I had one
I would sew in it
Clean the house in it
Fold laundry in it
Cock much better dinners in it [I am sure it has magic powers]
I would be o so crafty in it
I would bake chocolate chip pumpkin cookies in it
and you better believe I would give Squirmy bubble baths in it!
I would feel so 50's Sassy in it
but I have already been so spoiled for mothers day ... Maybe I can make one of my own
or maybe I need more spoiling ...HONEY [the hubby is my blogs #1 fan besides maybe Sanja]
If you could have one which one would you pick? I would get Lola

Party Planning-location location

With such a wide varity of ages attending Squirmys birthday we needed a place that would be fun for childern under to ten years old .... So why not go to a place that specializes in entiretaining groups of exactly that range? Squirmy's birthday party will be held at our local Mygym. Not only is this a place that he is both loves and is very familiar with but they do everything for you no joking. They put up the decorations plan the adventures for the kids which entertains them for an entire hour plus they do all the clean up what could get better then that! 

While researching the best places we also looked at 

-jungle jims 

-the children's museum 

-the little gym 

Essentially the two things we learned while picking a location is 

1) we need a place that Squirmy is both comfortable and familiar with 

2) something that would be fun for adults, and children from 10years-6 months old

My gym just did the trick!

YAY next stop invitations

Here Comes Peter Cotton Tail

For Easter we did the most exciting thing

We drove all the way down to New Mexico to Suprise Squirmy's Grandma Mayberry

[we caught here while she was dieing her hair :P she had no idea we were coming!]

we died eggs, hunted them and had so much fun with family!

[meeting the bunny he didn't like it so much]

[daddy and Squirmy]

[our eggs squirmy was a good egg helper although all the ones he died were cracked because he threw them into the cups as hard as he could LOL ]

[then squirmy was a bunny]

[and then I was a bunny]

[then Squirmy found all the eggs]

What a Great First Easter

Party Planning-The Theme

It is always easeier to plan a party when you have a theme

After google a bunch and getting on unique ideas for party themes I found that this site

http://www.pepperspollywogs.com

Is an amazing place for kids party information 

here was their list of things to consider for a 1st birthday theme

• Were there any special toys your child particularly loved during his or her first year, such as a teddy bear or special doll? If so, you could use the toy as a theme.
• The number “1″ is a very popular theme for this age!
• The child’s first initial is also another popular theme, and could be along the lines of having an Alphabet party.
• A favorite color could also be a theme to build your party around.
• I have seen some really unusual themes, such as a Tiffany’s store theme or antique car theme. They can be seen as giving a classic, vintage feel or something a bit more upscale for your party … depending on your plans of course!
• People often combine a child’s christening with his or her first birthday party. Although these are two separate events, there can be a joint theme.
• A favorite character, such as Baby Einstein, would also be an appropriate theme for a first birthday party.

After reading this list I decided to go with the UNUSUAL THEME it helps to support my crafting addiction 

so drum roll please ... The theme of the party is DR SEUSS "oh the places you will go" 

SO many bright colors and whimsical characters not to mench tounge twisters YAY here is a story board to get you in the WHO mood!
