bailey's first birthday

This Saturday we celebrated our baby girl's first birthday. She's turning one on 9 Sept but we had the party this weekend because my sister and her husband were here from Durban. The party was in Tokai Forest - such a lovely setting and the weather was divine. Everyone seemed to have a good time, especially Bailey who had way too much sugar for my liking and insisted on crawling around in the dirt in her party outfit. Sigh.

My ridiculously talented sister made the cake. It's a sponge cake with fondant icing - my favourite part is the bunting with Bailey's name! If you live in Durbz, check out The Cookie Cutter for party cakes, weddings, cupcakes and more. 

Every little detail is handmade, down to the tiny daisies! 

The party packs for the kids.

Everybody singing happy birthday.

Me and the birthday girl.

I didn't get any great pics of B's outfit and this is right at the end of the day after she'd dribbled juice down her front and crawled like a maniac through the dirt. But those are little harem pants she's wearing and the vest has a sequined heart - so cute! At this stage she was just about ready to pass out, hence the serious stare.
