Big number 6

Did I mention how I made a big decision at the beginning of this year. I decided this year, we would not be having birthday parties!! I know major decision! 
I really enjoy every bit about the kids parties. I love thinking about the themes, making the invites, the decorations, the games, the outfits, the food and drink, the cake and of course the pinata. I really do enjoy all of this and spoiling my babies. BUT... I just thought a year off - especially with this pregnancy wouldn't be such a bad thing.
whats 1 year?

Well, we just survived our first birthday without a party! My little master turned the big 6 - Cant believe he is so big. It was a wonderful day - starting a week early with a special package in the mail from Kiwi Nan and Pop. Pretty exciting getting presents delivered to your door


Then we baked cookies for the class and covered them in rich chocolate icing and MnMs


After school we had a special afternoon tea with another family which was quite lively and made my masters afternoon. 
Then a feast of pumpkin soup by special request with Nan and Pop, aunty and uncle and cousins, finished off with an icecream race track cake.



And to top it all off - A spanish Buzz lightyear! Awesome

My daughter, however, is still trying to negotiate any sort of party.... but Im sticking firm and will not budge. But I am excited to do parties again next year. I will be fresh and ready to go.

And I am craving croissants! for a few days now. How long can i hold out?
