Baby Elizabeth's Birthday Bash

We had a kids Birthday Bash for Baby E. She turned 1 on April 23rd!! E loves ladybugs - so that was the theme. Johanna and I brought ladybug cupcakes and Erin and the kids made decorations. Making ladybugs - Johanna actually was really into putting the dots on her ladybug all by herself. It's not usually her cup of tea.

Erin helping Elizabeth with her ladybug Elizabeth loves books - Erin, Lily, and John gave her a great farm book. She was very curious to see what the animals said.

John testing out E's new blocks.

Our ladybug cupcakes - Johanna loved to sample them. Before they made it to the party, Jo got into them a little. Mmmm

Happy Birthday to You Elizabeth!!!

What a cutie

John was excited about the "cake". That's his favorite part of parties - he ate 2 cupcakes.

Jo patiently waiting for her cupcake.

Lily making a cupcake ball with her cupcake.

Tada - I am done with my cupcake!!

Johanna found cupcake pieces in Elizabeth's highchair and started snacking away. I had to distract and turn the chair around so she wouldn't keep eating out of the seat.

E was covered in cupcake - even her socks were full of cupcake.

The party wrapped up with story time and gift bags. How fun!! Everyone was ready for a nap after the party.
