Amelia has been a big fan of Dr Seuss over the past year or so with a handful of favorite stories and characters. So, being unable to pick just one story, we had 4 different and her favorite stories represented in our Dr Seuss on the Loose party.
Thing one and Thing two were there: With some help from my mom, we were able to recreate some characters.
the cat. he was about a head taller than Meals. Of course we waited too long to try and get her to stand next to him for a picture ... there was too much excitement for her to come hold still for a few seconds.
First table, Sneetches. Each station had corresponding food: star-shaped grilled cheese, "frankfurters" or bacon wrapped smokies, and star-belly or plain belly cake pops.
The Cat in the Hat table had thing one and thing 2 cupcakes, fruit skewers to look like the cat's hat, and blue jello cups with a swedish fish in each.
Green eggs and Ham: we had stuff for ham sandwiches with green "eggs" I made white chocolate discs with a green M&M on each to look like eggs since Amelia is allergic to eggs. The other side of the table is Horton. We had pink cotton candy, cheese cubes using pink pom pom toothpicks, and the star of the party: homemade elephant ears.
Many party guests.
She was a little worried about the sparkler "3" candle.
We also played pin the star on the Sneetch.
Amelia beat her cousins!
opening all her presents. She's still trying to understand the whole thing. She would have been content to open just one or two and play with that.
mittens?
Mom and Dad got her a new tricycle! Papa is helping her get the hang of the pedals.
Dress up clothes, books, games, a toy horse, new clothes ... this kid got some fun new things
wrestling with dad afterwards in new pjs from MomMom and DadDad (thanks!).
We had a great third birthday party for our Amelia! Now we all anxiously await the arrival of Jack ...
one week or less!
