Dr. Seuss 1st Birthday Party

Wow, I can’t believe it’s been 8 months since we celebrated my son’s first birthday. (I know I am so late with this post – sorry!) I am really excited to share all of the details with you. I had a ton of fun planning my son’s first birthday, even though it was a ton of work. But it’s a first birthday and I wanted it to be celebrated BIG!

Here are a bunch of photos and details of his Dr. Seuss themed birthday party:  

The Invitation 
I created this invitation myself using Microsoft PowerPoint by incorporating several various Dr. Seuss invitation ideas online. The photo taken was during a fun cake smash session we did at home.

The Guest Book
I loved this Pinterest idea of using the  "Happy Birthday To You" book as a guestbook with a framed rhyme that asked guests to write a message anywhere in the book. Now my son has a great keepsake from his very first birthday. 



The Kid Party Favours 
 Each child got to take home a famous Dr. Seuss book. The little note on the book said: "Oh me, oh my! Thanks for stopping by!"


The Adult Party Favours
Of course, the adults got to take home a little something too. A little baggie filled with gold fish crackers. The little tag said: "One fish, two fish, red fish, thank you fish".

The Cake


My very talented sister Jennifer did an incredible job making the cake and cupcakes for her nephew’s special day.  To see more of Jennifer’s work please visit her Facebook page called: Diaper Cakes &Goodies by Jen. The banner displayed behind the cake are my son's adorable month-by-month photos.
