A Contraption Party for Wilder's 5th Birthday!

IMG_2384
I can't believe my baby is 5! I know we parents say that at every age, but it always feels like a shock to see them turn a year older, maybe because their aging feels so slow in the everyday and then suddenly, years have passed. I am not a fan of the whole process, but I am a fan of celebrating them on their special day. Wilder very specifically asked for a contraption birthday, which was surprisingly not as common of a birthday theme, so we got creative with marble runs and marble mazes and car races with some of the activities. Then of course his papa made him a huge, crazy contraption which actually spit out prize balls full of starburst candies. I actually think we'll probably try to have low key birthdays from now on, because we won't ever be able to top the coolness of that contraption.
Wilder, you are so special. I don't know what we would have done without you, but life wouldn't be as sweet, as meaningful, as wonderful without you. Thank you for filling our lives with your special spirit. We love you we love you we love you.

Evienne's Bunny Birthday

IMG_1848
We were so happy to celebrate our sweet Evienne with a bunny, sparkly, pink party for her third birthday. I took her to pick out a special dress for her party, and of course she chose pink. Pink, sparkly things, pretty things, tutus, princesses....are all near and dear to her heart at the moment. I was the polar opposite as a child and yet I am so, so thrilled to have a daughter who loves all the girly things I now love too. Life with you is fun, Evienne. We love you beyond the moon and back.
