G’s 1st birthday party in hostess with the mostess

Giacomo’s first birthday party was featured in Hostess with the Mostess last week. I know, I’m so bad at keeping up with all these things. You can still head over there to check out all the details about this party that was planned with much love and joy. All for my little man. We love you G!

I can’t believe my little monkey turned one last Monday. I know we all moms say time flies, and it did. But at the same time it feels we have gone through so many things, good and some others not so good, together. It’s been a year full of laughter, fun, love, joy, but at the same time some tears, doubts and fears. G came to our lives and changed them completely, for good. He’s our little gift from God.

We celebrated with a fun party on Sunday. It was a lot of work. But we enjoyed all the crafting, decorating, cooking, baking, even the cleaning! My mom and sister worked so hard and I could not be happier and thankful that they were here for such an important date.

We had a photographer to document the event {I wanted to enjoy the party and not worry about taking pictures} so I can’t wait to see his photos. Coming soon!

A little late but hope you all had a great President’s Day and had some time off to relax. The mister had to work so it was not really a three-day weekend for us. :( But we got to do some cleaning and de-cluttering. Yay for spring cleaning coming!

In another note I’m thinking of doing this for baby G’s birthday party. It’s a great alternative to the usual tissue paper pom poms. They are definitely more work but we can filled them with confetti for some extra fun.

Oh yes, baby’s party is just 4 months away…I’d better start planning!
