The First Birthday

First birthdays are so special.  Its the first milestone birthday for your precious bundle, and means as parents you have survived the first year!  My childrens first birthdays all bring about a lot of reflection, emotion and reminiscing of both the labour, birth and first few months.  Birthdays are also an excuse to get those creative juices flowing and have some creating fun!

Happy Birthday my beautiful girl xx

Pink and Green Dessert Buffet

Pink Lemonade - yum - made using the Martha Stewart Recipe found here

Food table .... obviously before all the food was laid out!

Pink and Green Ladybug cake - my first fondant birthday cake!

Blowing out the candle with mummy

The happy birthday girl in her birthday dress - of which by now was rather dirty...

And those of you with children will probably recognise this photo .... the impossibility of getting a decent family photo!!  Doesn't help that mummy forgot to put makeup on that morning ... haha
