Caidoc turned 3!

When did my little boy get so big?! Ack! The time is flying. I’m so impressed and proud of the person he is becoming. He’s a smart as as whip, incredibly intuitive, and so very sweet.


This was the first time he actually asked for a particular type of party, which was of course, a “tow tee” party. If you don’t speak Caidoc that translates to a “Cars” party, tow tee referring to Mater , Caidoc’s favorite character.


I’m so happy with how his party turned out, much like Zelie’s it had been in the making for MONTHS. My super rad friend Brittany took pictures (totally free!) and really saved my bacon since I didn’t get very many good ones.


He requested a “tup take!” Rather than a big cake. And “beu” candles since blue is his favorite color of course 🙂

  Although not typical to do a board like this for a birthday other than a “first birthday” I am SO GLAD I did! Because I got to “interview” Caidoc to get all the answers and oh. My. Gosh. It was the sweetest experience.

For example:

“Caidoc, what do you want to be when you grow up? ”

“A daddy. Wit a beard”

❤️
  The table looks bare but that’s because this was where the presents were suppose to go, however, it proved to be a little too low for curious hands 🙂



Like Zelie’s party, I made 90% of the decorations. I print everything at the library and cut it myself.

I used the same recipe for cupcakes as Zelie’s party but went with a cream cheese frosting instead of the marshmallow. Yum.



Busy boys in the sandbox! It was a big hit to have that open for the party.

 I splurged on this sign because it was so “on theme”. I’m planning on re selling it to recoup some of the cost… Which was like $15 so I really can’t complain haha! Loved those little “speed limit 3” signs, too cute!


    Zelie trying out the new swing set! We rushed to get this up in time for the party because it wasn’t delivered to the store on time. I’m so glad we did! It kept all the littles really busy.



We are so lucky to have such a fun space to decorate!

Since Caidoc is getting a little older I wanted to try having an activity for the party so I went with a loosely structured water balloon toss. It was a huge hit. The perfect amount of fun without totally pandemonium aka no tears!

  Ah, sweet victory 🙂

The loot! Caidoc has such generous and thoughtful friends – he made quite a haul.


He’s growing up much too fast.


Some of his buddies! He’s known these guys for a couple years now!


 

 Much to the parents dismay, I’m sure, I had gift bags full of candy for the kids to take home.  Hey, ya only turn 3 once 🙂 I think it helped most of it was hard candy which I think little kids don’t like. It just looks pretty 🙂 
Our May birthdays are over! Such fun!
