Baby H & Cousin M’s 1st Birthday Bash

Say hello to the babies of the hour! 

Since Baby H & Cousin M are only three weeks apart, we decided to celebrate their first birthdays with a BIG joint birthday bash.

The theme? The number 1, of course! 

Who doesn’t love a cupcake cake?! It was 100% delicious AND adorable~ plus it made for easy serving.

Our favors were “1″ cookies with a sticker that matched the invitations {bought from Tiny Prints}. So cute! 

We had a handmade Happy Birthday sign for the girls, and light & dark pink balloons were hanging from the ceiling {great work, Uncle Chris G!}. The kids loved it and it definitely added to the festive party atmosphere! 

We also displayed a month-by-month photo of each of the girls, starting as brand-new wee ones and ending at present day. 

This was one of my favorite parts of the party decorations~ I just can’t get over how much our babies have changed in the past year!

And of course, embracing the joint birthday party theme, we also did a picture collage of Baby H & Cousin M together over the past year. Love! 

The birthday girls were ready to get the party started…after a quick snack, of course. 

Then it was off to play {and bulldoze}… 

before digging into a delicious dinner. Yum! 

Next on the agenda?

CAKE!

Everyone sang “Happy Birthday,” which the girls thought was hilarious.

Cousin M & Baby H made a wish and had a little help blowing out their candles…

and then it was time to get down to business!

The girls had a brief moment of hesitation initially with the cupcakes…

But no worries~ they definitely got the hang of it quickly!

Milk break! 

And if you missed my Wordless Wednesday post earlier this week, this was the sweetest moment of the whole party: birthday buddies holding hands. 

Love it!

And let’s not forget the “after” shot: frosting in hair and all over face & tummy. That’s the way it’s done, girls! Great work! 

All in all, it was a fantastic birthday party for our sweet one-year-olds.

And it was so much fun that the girls were able to share this milestone together! Such an amazing blessing for both of our families. 

We love you, Baby H & Cousin M! The happiest of birthdays to both of you.

Counting My Kisses: We’re so thankful for such incredible family & friends~ we had such a wonderful time celebrating with you! I’m so happy we were able to mark this special occasion with a joint birthday party for the girls~ it was definitely one for the memory books.

Have a GREAT weekend, everyone!
