Monster Bash 1st Birthday

Hello friends!

Busy Busy once again and so much to catch up on, including the emails in my inbox at work I got from my nice long vacation. 

But I at least wanted to give you all a peek at baby D's, who's becoming more of Toddler D, first birthday party.  It was so much fun!!  My little monster sure did have a good time!  Here's a photo collection from the Bash.

His Green Monster Personal cake which was chocolate!

Monster cupcakes which were chocolate and funfetti

My mom put this monster fruit salad together

Ice Cream sundae making station. This was a big hit!

Noah' s photo collage and the favor boxes for the kids. The older kids had the boxes to the left with candy and small toys like little bouncy balls, little yoyos, monster stickers and other goodies.  The younger babies had their own special favors.  Their little boxes had little stuffed monsters with baby cookies and mum mums in them!

Mama and the birthday boy.  We are currently trying to get him off of the binki.  I just couldn't say no to him at his birthday.

Mama D, Daddy D, and Baby D :)

One of my besties, Michelle, from Ohio came up for his birthday!  We had so much fun!  I don't know what we would have done without her and my mom and dad's help.

Noah loved getting spoiled by aunt Shell!

He spotted his birthday present from nana and papa early and just had to check it out!

He doesn't look it in this picture but he LOVES this little car!  We pull him around the house and he puts on the blinkers and honks the horn...it's so darn cute! :)

Present Time!

Here's a good view of his birthday outfit.  A litte monster which matches his shorts and the number 1 and his name underneath.

Big Bird!  He is absolutely crazy about sesame street but more importantly, big bird elmo and cookie monster!

Cake time didn't start out too well.  He wasn't exactly thrilled about his cake at first.

Then we gave him a spoon and he got his first taste...YUM!

Then he dug in..

And dug in some more!

With smiles all around!

I think he ate a little too much!  But I think cake time ended up fairly successful.

All the little ones loved the jumpoline turned ball pit we got baby D.

Especially our little monster of a birthday boy!  I think we can count this as a successful first birthday! :)
