A Walk Down Birthday Memory Lane
Well, we all know my kid turned three at the beginning of the month. I've mentioned it maybe a few times now. I truly enjoy the party planning and baking that comes with birthdays (but at the same time I have to admit that I'm a little bit glad we each only have one a per year). So when Robbie suggested a birthday listicle in honour of her daughter turning nine, I was all over it. Bring on the nostalgia!

Oh my goodness you are a fantastic, fantastic photographer. I wish I was that good! I went through all the first birthday shots I had and they were terrible. Yours are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteAwww, well thank you! I can only take credit for (most) of the ones I don't appear in. ;)
DeleteIt's true! You have such great photos.
ReplyDeleteI second Ado!! And yes to many many many more. She is cutest then all the cupcakes in the world put together!
ReplyDeleteI will chime in on what everyone else has said - what fantastic pictures you have! What fabulous birthday memories, and here is to a hundred more.
ReplyDeleteMy oldest's first bday (He'll be 19 in September - ha) I made his cake. We lived in house with no central air. It was so warm in the kitchen that the chocolate frosting never cooled. The layers slid apart on the way to his party and I ran in the local supermarket to buy one. Remembering that gave me a laugh. And he's headed off to college in a few days. It seemed like such a tragedy then. Shows you that most of it is all small stuff worries.
ReplyDeleteLOL, on Lilah's first birthday, I made the rookie mistake of not snatching the candle away quick enough after we'd blown it out so, with about 40 or 50 people all watching, she reached out for it, burnt her tiny finger, and screamed her head off. I'm pretty sure that one will go down in our family history books!
Delete100% cutie! Congrats on having such a great kid (it comes from great parents).
ReplyDeleteAwesome pics! and themes! Its nice to see her little birthday journey so far.
ReplyDeleteCheers to many, many and even some more =)
What a cute little birthday girl!

ReplyDeleteThose Elmo cupcakes are awesome!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE those Elmo cupcakes...to this day, I still love Elmo.
ReplyDeleteIt's so awesome to see how much she's grown and changed :)
Your pictures are amazing! And she is so cute!
ReplyDeleteYour daughter is so adorable, great pictures! And I want to eat the cupcakes. Now!
ReplyDeletebeautiful shots! Love the teddy bear picnic idea - should've thought of that one.
ReplyDeletemy kids always give me a theme too. I believe this will be the year of Harry Potter for my soon to 8 year old son. I kinda can't wait :)
Simply gorgeous. My oldest had an Elmo 2nd birthday, too! I convinced her dad to dress up as Ernie (Elmo was rented). When he came in the front door, all the little ones were terrified, and ran screaming and crying into the kitchen. Their parents were not happy with me. ;)
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful shots, and I do agree with RoryBore- the Teddy Bear Picnic was an adorable idea! I just might have to run with that one some day.
ReplyDeleteHappy belated 3rd birthday Lilah!
Happy 3rd (albeit belated) birthday to sweet Lilah! Did you make those Elmo cupcakes yourself? Talented!
