my baby's party








 Lots of pictures that are completely out of order. Payton's birthday was so much fun. Not only did I have a fantastic time planning it, her face the entire time was priceless. She is quite the animated little girl. One of her favorite shows is Yo Gabba Gabba. She has this funny dance she does at the beginning of it, and she jabbers with excitement during the whole show. I wanted to have a theme she would recognize, so this show seemed like a great choice. I originally wanted to make 5 cakes (one of each of the characters) but when Josh's family had an emergency and was not going to be able to make it to the party, I cut back and just went with one. I made the shirts the kiddos and I were wearing with some felt and iron-on adhesive. Super easy, super cheap, super cute. I made them way back in like, November but wouldn't let the kids wear them til the party. Payton would find them in my closet, get way excited, gather them up, and play with them like they were stuffed animals or something.

We had pizza for dinner then filled up on some sugar. Time for presents! As if she weren't spoiled enough at Christmas, this little girl got more fun toys and clothes. The it of the night had to be from my parents, the new power wheels jeep. I love the pic of her in the jeep with her new toy puppy. Her and Romes bundled up and took it for a spin in the backyard for a bit, then we cut into her Muno cake. She blew out her candles like a pro, and devoured the cake and ice cream. In the end, it was a lot of work but totally worth it. She had a great time, and that's whats important. I am glad I have some fun pictures to share with her forever, and a jeep in my living room I don't know what to do with til summer.
