Gwen's third birthday was almost 5 months ago! She's obsessed with Nemo and Dory, so I did an underwater themed party. I knew that I wanted to go all out for this little party, and I'm glad that I spent the time to make decorations and a cute cake. I think Gwen really appreciated it? :) I'd like to thank Pinterest for all the party ideas, of course. We didn't have our house at the time, so my sister-in-law let us borrow her beautiful house for the party.
We kept the activities simple- just a kiddie pool in the backyard. It was a huge hit. Gwen was the first and last kid in the water. There's not much else to do at your party when you're a September baby in Arizona- it's still summer! Although, the weather on this day wasn't terribly miserable. We lucked out.
Look at how small Fox was! Not yet walking.
This series of pictures are too cute to me. She looks considerably younger, here!
I'm bummed that Ryan nor I are in any of these pictures! It's kinda hard to host and be the photographer at the same time. I hope to invest in a professional photographer for maybe her 5th birthday? I've been thinking about how often I want to have big birthday parties for my kids, and I think ages 1, 3, 5, 8, 10, 12/13(?), and 16 are good ages to do that, right?
