At the end of October, Krew turned 4! As I was helping him think of theme ideas for his birthday party, as soon as I thought of this idea, I knew it was perfect for him: a "Bird"-day party! Krew has always liked birds, and has spent a lot of time the past several months, going "birding" with his brothers. Every time we go to the library, he wants to check out a book about birds, and usually he has a specific kind in mind. First, it was bald eagles, and then it was ostriches, and so on. So, a bird-day party it was!
Aren't these bird cupcakes the cutest? Let me tell you, there are not a lot of ideas on Pinterest for bird themed parties, unless you want Angry Birds, or little baby bird parties for baby showers, or something. So. instead of copying everyone else's ideas, this time I had to actually be creative on my own.
The morning of his birthday, we had a little birthday party playgroup with a few of his little friends. He was so excited to play with his friends, and he was completely excited about each gift he got.
For party favors, I gave each child a little bag of gummy worms that were labeled as bird food, some bird stickers, and one of those bird warbler whistles that you put water in. I remember getting one of these when I was young, and I kept it forever. I was so excited to see that someone still makes and sells them, because they were perfect for the bird birthday party.
Later, we celebrated his birthday will our little family, and I let Krew decorate his own cake. He asked for help writing a 4, but otherwise he did it all by himself, and he could not have been more pleased with his birthday cake.
We sure love this little guy. He so perfectly fits in our family, and I don't know what we would do without him. I love that I get to celebrate all his birthdays with him!
