Jamie came home with the yellow Converse sneakers a few days before his party and I knew that they would look adorable with his outfit. I knew I wanted him to wear something cute yet casual and these green overalls I found at Zara fit the bill perfectly. I picked out Edwin’s overalls about a month before his birthday party. This is a very photo heavy post but there were so many great options that I couldn’t choose what to share, hah! Keep reading to see all of the details from Edwin’s VHC first birthday party and hopefully you’ll find some inspiration for your littles here! My family also came over the day before Edwin’s party and helped immensely with the balloon wall, cake/cookie pick up, cleaning and cooking (thank you fam!!!). Because I had been slowly putting things together for months and decorating here and there a couple of weeks beforehand, my stress levels were way reduced. I’m usually become stressed out when it comes to party planning because I am typically a leave everything to the minute person but since becoming a mom, I have learned to allocate and plan better which helped so much for this party. But boy was I wrong! I feel like this party turned out way better than I expected and I am so happy that I went with a theme that was something Edwin actually loves (side note: Edwin also loves dogs and if I had of thought of it sooner, I would have done a really cool dog themed party lol). This is mainly because I had originally planned to do a more modern take on a first birthday party that I knew would be blog/Instagram worthy and I wasn’t sure the Very Hungry Caterpillar (lets call it VHC for short) was going to cut it. I had been planning this in my head and slowly ordering, making inspiration boards and crafting since the new year but still wasn’t 100% sure if this Very Hungry Caterpillar birthday theme was going to be sharable or not. I could not be happier with how our little guys birthday party turned out. Edwin’s first birthday party is what you came here for right!? Oh my gosh you guys. However, I make NO promises for a consistent blog schedule and I refuse to put that pressure on myself.ĪNYWAY, enough about me. it’s easier said than done when there’s a child involved but I * think* we are all finally in a place where I can start easing back into work again. I am slowly but surely starting to feel that creative “spark” again and now just have to hunker down and put all the ideas in my head into fruition. With that being said, I do have a few ideas circling through my head that I’m hoping to get up within the next few weeks. Long time no see friends! I’m so sorry for not posting for such a long time, but honestly, I have found myself so wrapped up (in the best way possible) in motherhood that I haven’t really felt the desire to create blog content…unless it is something that is really inspiring me or that is going to give value to you.
