Part 3

Cat in the Hat Part 2

Thank you all for the sweet comments about the party decorations. I am still just oh so excited about how everything turned out. However, the subject in these next two photos blows even the craftiest of decorations out of the water. 

My sweet little birthday boy was just oh so adorable at his party.  His smile was enough to make any mothers heart melt, and I was so happy that we could provide such a fabulous day for him. 

I purchased a cat in the hat shirt from this etsy seller, and I was so happy with how it turned out.  It was the perfect touch to his "party pictures", that were incorporated in the decor, and the perfect outfit to fit the theme. 

A few days prior to the party we did a little photo shoot with his shirt to have printed for the party. The sun and my camera were working against eachother that day so we only got a handful of good shots out of the 200 we took.  However, the day of the party I took him on a little photo shoot again, and got a couple of good shots.  This seems to be typical to taking photos of a toddler.

I found this adorable idea on pinterest.

Basically, you take a photo on every anniversary/birthday and the next year you take a picture of yourself holding the photo from the year before. ADORABLE, right?  I attempted this with Caleb. It was little more iffy than I expected it to be. Caleb did not quite understand the concept of holding the picture up where I could see it. :)

It's The Cat In The Hat

This past Saturday we celebrated Caleb's 2nd birthday Cat in the Hat style. I am just in love with how everything turned out.  We celebrated at our home, and had a Seusstastical water party! It was a great time.  Little man was so thrilled, and had a permanent smile wiped across his face.

I am going to break down his party into different posts. First we have decorations.  I worked so hard on all the details of the party, and  I have been searching for ideas for months. I have become obsessed with all things pinterest, and the ideas on that website are endless. Everything was executed perfectly, and I could not have asked for a cuter party.  The printables came from this etsy website.

 The window from the book

 The perfect Seusstastical 2

 You have to love Dr. Seuss quotes

 My mother in law made this fish. We google imaged "cat in the hat fish". We then enlarged it on word, printed, and cut.

 Stackable household objects, just like the cat stacks in the book.  Thing 1 and Thing 2 arrive in a red box in the book. Notice their hair sticking out? :)

 Loved this ribbon wall! So simple but so adorable!

 The food table

 The cake (made by my sister, sis-in-law, and grandmother). Aren't the candles PERFECT??

 The signs were one of my favorite parts. I found this idea online and fell in love! It is pvc pipe that is spray painted!! So cute! This was in the front garden when guests arrived

 I love how these ribbon balls turned out. They took forever, but were oh so great.  They were made from styrofoam balls, ribbon, and stick pins. The red and blue glasswear I bought at hobby lobby for 50% off!
