Two nights before we had her:)

I have been party planning for a couple months now:) We are going with a cupcake theme of course! Because Cate is our little Cup-Cate:) So I've been searching etsy for ideas and blog hopping and trying to find out how to make Cate's First birthday simply AMAZING:) I picked out the cake:) I'm still deciding on the invites! I picked out the colors too:)
Cate's Cake on her BIRTHday:)
In this picture Cate is wearing her first birthday dress:) And I have the most adorable pic I am using for her first birthday invite:)
I'm not revealing it until her invites go out :) Until then... A sneak pic

So, please share your most memorable first birthday moments with me:) What was your theme? Do you have any party planning advice for me?
Love Love Love!!

Happy Bday Cupcate!
She's getting so big, can't believe it's a year.
I cannot believe that she's almost a year old!!!!
She is getting so big and is as beautiful as ever.
Cute pic and I love the hair clip.
For Tyler's one year birthday I had two birthday outfits. One for before the cake and one for after. I would just make sure she has a very good nap and just let the party happen. It will be fun.
I love the idea of a big first birthday. When I havechildren I will definitely have a blow out! After all, it is your one year mommaversary as well!
shes growing up soooo fast!! what a doll!!!
It's hard to believe that Cate is almost one! I love the last picture of her. We miss you guys too and we should definitely get together soon! We won't be there on Thursday:( but lets do somethign soon! The kiddos need to play and we need to catch up!
It's incredible how time flies! I am fresh out of birthday ideas but I have no doubt whatever you come up with will be amazing! Cate is lucky to have such a loving mom! xx
Em I can't believe she is so close to being the BIG 1!!! How fast this year has gone! We did a cupcake theme with pink and brown for Taegan's first birthday. That hair clip is super cute. I don't have a lot of ideas besides getting anything with cupcakes:) I can't wait to see what you come up with-it will be great!
Love her cupcake clip! Excited for more details, I'm sure everything will be adorable!
I LOVE the theme!! I can't wait to see the rest of her pictures. You were the cutest pregnant woman I have ever seen.
So sweet! She is just a doll. You are a darling little family. I don't have kiddos yet, so, I'm not of much help, but, MY first birthday party was a fun polka dot theme (I've seen the pictures). Thought that was so cute. Cannot wait to see more of Cate'e big day as it gets clocer!
Time flies when you have a cutie pie!! :)
She is beautiful!! Do you know about the Tomkat Studio blog? Just google that and she gives great tips and ideas and pictures for parties. She has her own etsy shop too. Just found your blog and love it!! You have a beautiful family!
You had the CUTEST baby bump.
I love your idea of a cupcake theme. I recently picked up really adorable cupcake candles at a local boutique here in Boston. They are made by Design design (I think they have a website) and they have a bunch of other cupcake stuff too...
I also love hostess with the mostess for party ideas! Have fun planning - I am sure it will be fabulous.
This year has FLOWN by. I feel like I was just at the hospital to see Cate for the first time! She was so darn precious then and she has only gotten cuter over the year. Can't wait to celebrate her b-day with you guys!
girl you were so small!!!
i'm dying to see cate's invites. i'm sure they're beyond adorable!
e really wishes she lived closer so she could come to the party.. boo.
are you doing a candy buffet? you should do lost of pastel candy to tie in the theme of the cupcakes...
e-mail me your address when you get a sec please =)
Awww! So funny, but I want a cupcake theme for my first little girl, too! I think it's so perfect and age appropriate!
I also love a garden theme, but that might be better suited for a little older baby girl!
aww memories. I can't believe it's been a year almost. I remember how close it was-could be to my bday!!
For both my boys it was very festive, filled with family, lots of messy cake pictures, and anything goes!
Happy bday Cate!!
Aw, this year has flown by so fast and, might I say, you make pregnancy look really sexy! Cate is going to have an amazing party and SUCH a cute theme!
Emily!! I can't believe a year has gone by (almost) already! I've enjoyed seeing Miss Cate every 3 months for her photo sessions and I must admit I'm a little (ok, a lot) sad that we will be wrapping up her baby plan in a few short WEEKS! :( You are an amazing Momma and I've loved getting to know your family. HUGS!
She is adorable...that last picture is just precious...that first picture insanely not fair!
I cannot believe she's gonna be a year old so soon! I'm not even her mama, and it seems like the time just flew by! I a sure her cupcake party will be precious!
Hey Ems! I love reading your blog and I feel like I haven't missed anything :) Miss ya girl.
Wow, time does go by so fast! Can't wait tosee all of the cute things you come up with. I have to be honest, my memory is so flighty these days. Once the kids get older all of the memories will come back to me. We just had the babies 1st birthday and the best part was she is my only little one that actually tore into her personal cake! Which was awesome!
You were (are) the cutest preggo lady!! I can't believe she's almost a year old. She is such a little doll!
Cup-Cate, such a cute name!
