Somehow I blinked and my sweet teeny tiny 5lb 6oz baby boy
grew into this…

This weekend the girls and I were invited to a fancy tea party.
Grandma (Chris’ mom) made reservations at a cute little tea house and invited us to join her for lunch.

Since, this was our first “official” tea party (we have had many a princess tea party at home) we decided that we needed to take extra care and really get beautified for the event.

My baby started Grade TWO today.
(sniff sniff. STOP growing!)

This year, we celebrated by having a special “surprise! it’s your first day of school!” breakfast.
(totally stole this idea. thanks again Denise!!!)
We put up streamers, balloons and set the table with a party tablecloth.
So fun.
I made his favorite- waffles with whipped cream and strawberries. Mmmmm.
The kids were all thrilled when they came downstairs in the morning. They don’t normally get sugar for breakfast. I’m mean that way.
