Ladybug, ladybug, oh so sweet

For Brooklyn's first birthday we had a ladybug themed party. I made ladybug invitations. The lighting didn't work to well, the invitations were actually hot pink and black


 I also made a ladybug cake, but it didn't turn out to well.


 The decorations




 The beautiful ladybug! I ordered this cute outfit from Etsy. She was teething, so we didn't get too many smiles out of her, but she had lots of fun.



 Nana was able to fly in for the big day.


 Brooklyn got some great presents. She got a Leapster dog that sings songs and says and spells her name; a drum that teaches beats and rhythm; a busy ball popper; a microphone; and a singing tea pot set. She loves playing with all her new toys.

 After presents it was cake time!

Brooklyn had a special strawberry cake that was dairy free and no frosting because of her allergies, but she LOVED the cake.








 With a full tummy, Brooklyn and her cousins played with her new toys.

The happy little princess








 It was a great party. Brooklyn is so sweet and beautiful. Happy birthday my little ladybug!
