Like father like son.

Matt watched Parks today while I ran some errands. Because we moms know that running errands alone is a luxury. I got these while I was out and it is cutest thing ever. 

Babies love St. Patty's day too!

So many friends came over for the St. Patty's day/Parker & Ella's birthday party! I've said before, I love themed parties! It was so fun that everyone dressed their littles in green for the occasion. Nothing's better than having a full house of screams and laughter  from little kids. 

Let the wild rumpus start!

I had so much fun making all of Parkers decorations for his Wild Rumpus birthday party! I used the story version of Where the Wild Things Are because books are always better. I love how everything turned out! 

I used an old book to make the confetti, cake topper, hanging garland, and posted some of the illustrations I loved around. I hated cutting up a book but it all looked so cute in the end. I hand traced and cute leaves and crowns out of cardstock to make garlands and hung them up with twine. The tablecloth was from the dollar store and I used black paint to write little phrases and crowns on it. The "Wild One" banner I cut out of burlap then used leftover felt from parkers crown to make a little crown and painted the words on. 

We had so much fun getting all of the family together to celebrate Parker! Can't believe that a year has already gone by!

Ella is 1!

Celebrated sweet Ella this weekend as she turned one! Her party was fabulous of course! Hello Kitty everything! It was so fun to be outside with the babies and watch them play around. They are all so sweet to each other. :)

       

                       

babies on the block

These little peanuts are all only a couple months apart! Lucky for us we all live in the same neighborhood too! Every so often we get together and have dinner, then talk about our kids and how crazy they are while watch them play! 

lunch date

While we were up in Queen Creek we met my bestie and her kiddos at the Olive Mill. They have the greatest food! The kids got to play around outside and we got to eat a yummy lunch. My mom stopped by to see Parker and with that, brought his first try of gelato. He definitely has a sweet tooth!

Wild One photo shoot

My bestie is a photographer out in Queen Creek (Pretty Little Pictures) so of course she takes our family photos! For Parker's one year pictures I just had to theme them the same as his party… Where the Wild Things Are! So I made him a banner, leggings, crown and moccasins, then bought a "king of all wild things" shirt off of Etsy! I love how the pictures turned out and how we used the book in some family photos! At his party I am going to put the book out for the guests to sign too! The only crappy thing is that I forgot the crown at home! But I kinda am glad because it'll just be special for his party now. :)
