Party with Friends

By -
 Grancy and Gramma came to celebrate SG's birthday!  She was happy to pose for a picture in front of this Sesame Street backdrop. 

 The birthday girl looking so cute!
 Sarah Graves and her party guests in front of Sesame Street!  Not everyone is smiling, but everyone is looking, which was a major feat for Aunt Nay with 5 toddlers.
We had a craft where the kids made Elmo faces.  Using the glue stick was a big thrill!  "Sarah do this" was said a lot.
 She was very proud of her Elmo face.
 I wanted a picture of the three of us, but probably should have waited until after she got her cake!
 She was quite excited to "Eat Elmo!"
 She ate her cake, her ice cream, and I don't know how many of the cake pops!
She enjoyed being with Aunt Nay Nay.  She will do most anything for Nay Nay!

 I decided not to post pictures of her with all of her gifts, but I had to show the newest addition to our home, our Bitty Baby named Kate.
Kate came with a backpack, clothes, and most importantly a baby bottle.  She has been completely in love with Kate.
She had some sweet friends over and Mason wanted to give her a hug.  Some sweet little boys!

I think she felt very special during her party and enjoyed having everyone make over her!

Frozen Party Details

It reminded me of an infographic. The Frozen theme was a lot of fun! There were so many things to choose from that I took to pinterest and eventually decided on the ideas that I would use for this party. I found this great Arendelle banner here on Pinterest I was so grateful that my sister did a snowflake Christmas and had tons of snowflake ornaments to hang as decorations! This party theme was a lot of fun to plan the food. Kristoff's ice cubes were made from Jell-o with an ombre effect. I found the recipe here on Pinterest. I doubled the recipe to make a 13x9 size pan of it and I made 2 13x9 pans of it. The made plenty of "ice cubes" to fill 35 cups. They turned out really cute! My parents made this Elsa cake and did a fabulous job

Cloth vs. Disposable

By -
We have mostly been planning to do disposable diapers because I felt that cloth would just be too much work when I go back to work.  Then, we saw these diapers called happy heiny's ( www.happyheinys.com ).  These looked much different than what I envisioned cloth diapers to look like.  Mom used cloth diapers with me and Jeanne', so she felt totally up for using them while Sarah Graves is at her house.  I started looking into the cost comparison and depending on what type of cloth diapers you buy, you can save anywhere from $1200 - $1700.  That is pretty attractive, not to mention knowing that you aren't filling up a landfill somewhere.  There are lots of different varieties of cloth diapers out there, but the ones that seem to be a good investment and user friendly are diapers that have snap closures, with a pocket for an insert to absorb the contents, and they are one size that adjusts as your baby grows from a newborn up to 35 pounds.  You can also purchase the traditio
