Yah!!! It's your birthday! Well...your toddler's birthday, anyway. One of the biggest and most celebrated days, is your little one's FIRST birthday. It's a time where you go all out - planning, buying and decorating for that special occasion. So many of us parents love planning a certain theme when it comes to our precious little one's first birthday, and occasionally, it can become a little stressful.
I know, I know - your toddler is probably not going to mind one bit, but we want EVERYTHING about this special day, to be perfect; even down to your toddler's attire. Many will have a birthday smash outfit (an outfit where you don't mind your toddler getting messing,while smashing into his cake) and some of you will have two outfits - a birthday smash and an outfit, afterwards.
Check out this adorable t-shirt by CuteZee Custom Creations Etsy Shop. This shirt is the "One Fish, Two Fish" Birthday t-shirt, which is also available in a onesie. This t-shirt is so cute and I love the colorful fish and the embroidery that Ashli done on this! Every stitch is perfectly embroidered and the placement of the fish, around the appliqued number 1, is right on cue.
Ashli, from CuteZee Custom Creations will create your shirt or onesie just the way you want it. If you have a specific color or design, just ask Ashli and she will create it for you! AND...any one of the designs, shown on her onesies/t-shirts can also be coordinated into a bib or burp cloth - perfect for siblings!
Available sizes in the onesies/t-shirts are: Newborn/0-3 months - 5/6. Need leg warmers or a bow to go with your onesie or t-shirt? Ashli can hook you up. Just let her know, before you order.

If you've ever been to a baby shower, birthday party or wedding, you may have seen a table, such as a dessert table or front door table, with short or tall vases, filled with candy. The color of the candy is usually the same color and theme of the special occasion.
Most likely, the candy you see in these vases, are for guests to help themselves, but also serves as a table decor. The candy can be anything you choose, but for this specific occasion, a baby shower that I am hosting, we are using pink sixlets.
Ok, we all know what sixlets are, don't we? I mean, for those who grew up in the 80's (such as myself), I remember going to our local convenient store and picking up a small package of these sweets!
The sixlets shown here, are by Celebrations by SweetWorks, sold by Bayside Candy on Amazon. This is a 2lb bag of sixlets that arrive at your house, well packaged and with a cooling pouch inside, to prevent the candy from melting while being shipped.
I am using these pink sixlets at an upcoming baby shower, but I am still unsure how I'm going to use them. One option, is to fill one or two semi tall vases and place them on the dessert table. Another option, is to fill the mini pink plastic baby bottle favors to give to guests. I'm leaning more to option one, but maybe instead of dividing them out into two vases, putting them into a glass bowl. Below are a few ideas from Pinterest.
These sixlets, Celebrations by SweetWorks, are a shimmering Bright Pink, chocolate candy. You can purchase these by 1lb or 2lb bag, depending on your needs. For those with allergies, you will be glad to know that these are not only gluten free, but were made in a nut-free factory.
There are approximately 540 pieces per pound, so with 2lbs, you are getting approximately 1080 pieces of chocolate candy! That's a whole lotta candy! I am thankful for Bayside Candy for giving me the opportunity to review their Bright Shimmer Pink Sixlets. Oh, and by the way...THEY TASTE JUST AS I REMEMBERED!

There are so many ways to decorate for a baby shower...banners, onesies, dessert table with labels and this, featured below; a diaper baby!
Diaper babies have become very popular and have shown up at many baby showers, as decor. It is a neat and unique way of showcasing a special event. Diaper babies can be hosted at a baby shower or given as a gift to the new mommy.
These diaper babies, shown here, are made from a package of diapers. Each diaper baby comes with a pacifier and a blanket to lay on, as well as dressed in a baby clothing. Pleasant Decorations, an Etsy store, was kind enough to send me a diaper baby, with my choice of colors, for a review.
First of all, the diaper baby was absolutely adorable! It looks almost like a real sleeping baby, curled up on it's blankey, with a sleeper and hat. You can turn the baby's head to the side, or have it facing the front, as shown.
Pleasant Decorations has 21 items in their store. They sell anything from these adorable diaper babies to stethoscope covers to wreaths and knitted animals. Many of the items can be custom made to your choice of fabrics (stethoscope covers) to colors (diaper babies clothing). Just shoot Darla a message on Etsy and she will be more than glad to assist you.
I can't tell you how thrilled I am with this diaper baby. It's so well made to resemble a sleeping baby and the baby's sleeper can later be used for your little one...or kept on this diaper baby as a nursery decor.
Visit Pleasant Decorations on Etsy for these items and more!

By now, you may know, that I'm a big fan of Etsy. Etsy has tons of unique items for babies, women, men, house decor plus many more items. All items on Etsy are hand made and many are one of a kind or unique pieces.
These adorable shoes shown here, are the lady bug baby shoes. These shoes are perfect for a baby's birthday or shower gift and come in sizes 3-18 months. They are little red shoes with black dots, with a white flower that has a small ladybug attached to them. They have a velcro closure, making them easy to slip on and off of your little baby girl.
The shoes are sold by Sweet Baby Girl Shoppe, a store on Etsy. These shoes are very well made and will sure to be a hit if given as a shower gift. Pair these shoes up with a matching red and polka dot dress, red headband and you have your baby's first outfit! These shoes are just too adorable! The best sellers are the 12-18 months, are a favorite among moms for 1st birthday party outfits!
Sweet Baby Girl Shoppe has other items as well. At Sweet Baby Girl Shoppe, you will also find other baby girl items, but as of right now, this shop is on vacation until July 10th.
