Tea Party Anyone?

Image
Can I just say that I love toddler photo shoots? This little gal of ours has some spunk and it makes photographing her super fun. For her birthday we are going to have a little tea party to celebrate so I thought I would do a few photos with that in mind.  I pulled out a few special items for the pics. She's wearing a vintage dress I bought in Ladysmith at The Vintage Rose  last year, the pearl necklace I wore at our wedding, one of my Grandmother's tea cups. and the sweet bunny quilt my mom made for E. It helped that there was a slight breeze and some lovely evening light :) You would never guess from these photos that she loves to hit, climb up the highest parts of the playground so she can jump off, yell NO and run away smiling :)  Can you tell that she had her hair in pigtails all day...? :)

Six!

He's how old? Wow.. I know I'm going to be doing this every birthday for each child.. but wow, time flies! This year we had a lot of fun planning our big guy's sixth birthday, a SPY birthday. All of the kids got rearview spy glasses and secret agent badges. We offered them stick on moustaches but not all were interested, they definitely were a bit itchy.  Overall I think everything went pretty well :) The kids all had fun except L did say afterwards that he was disappointed in the taste of the fake cake :-p Oh well, you can't win em all.  Our three secret agents :) Love them!   Let the fun begin! Secret Agents begin training! The bomb cake I made by icing a balloon with whipping cream. The knife! 'L, now that you are six you can cut your own cake'. BOOM! He wasn't too impressed with it not being a real cake but definitely surprised! We had hid a clue under the balloon that let the kids know that the real cupcakes had been stole...
