We went with a hungry caterpillar theme after selecting a caterpillar cake from Costco. Abput 20 people showed up and it was a really good time. I think our house was at maximum capacity and the mess was HUGE...but it was all worth it. Esme wore her birthday outfit from her Godmother Abbie and looked absolutely adorable. Here are some pictures from the big day...
Noah got to spend some time with his godparents (minus Jamers).
Noah also tried to get in on the cake action. He wasn't impressed that all of the other kids were given cake and he didn't! He saw an opening and he took it!
Here is a picture of her cake
It was a cold day (as it tends to be in December;), but the kids did manage to spend some time in the garden.
Esme's friends Cosmo and Iona came
Mommy's friend Michelle and her kids Georgia, Alfie and Freddie came. Georgia was a big help with Noah and practically held him the entire time.
Esme thought it was very special that her big cousins Stuart and Miles were able to share her special day with her. Granddad and Grandma Bailey and Auntie Helen and Uncle Adrian were there, too! Miles was especially happy because he won pass the parcel!
Here is Miles showing off his prize.
The kids also played musical statues (at the suggestion of Stuart) and Stuart won the prize!
Jack, Issy, Adam and Nat also made it to the party (see pics above)! It was choas in a small house but it was worth it and we all had fun!
Everyone was very generous with their gifts and Esme sends lots of love to you all. Here are a few pics of her opening her presents.
Not only was everyone at the party generous to Miss Esme, but she also received several parcels from the US and UK. Grandma Julie and Grandpa Gordy sent her a pair of American Girl bitty twins. Great Grandma and Grandpa Bajema sent her some lovely Dresses, a ballet bag and a light switch cover. Godmother Abbie Sent her the birthday outfit. Grandpa John and Grandma Gale sent her a bike trailer. Godmother Tiff and Paul sent her some Melissa and Doug stamps (I accidently had her open Noah's trunki but it all got sorted out in the end). Grandpa Dave and Grandma Vicki sent her some v tech alphabet magnets and a car garage. Great Grandpa and Grandma Kennedy sent her a check to buy herself something nice. Godfather Mike and Veronica sent her a lovely keyboard. What a lucky girl to have so many amazing people in her life!
Esme sends a big thanks out to everyone who got her a gift. She really did get spoiled and felt like a princess on her special day! xx
Here is a clip of Esme singing Bruno Mars at her party- she really gets into it at the end!
