Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!

I have always loved Dr. Seuss! Starting sometime while I was in college I would buy Dr. Seuss books any time I found them on sale, for the children I hoped to someday have. I had considered a Dr. Seuss themed party for William's first birthday but we decided on a barnyard theme. In June of 2011 I was shopping at Target and found the dollar aisle filled with Dr. Seuss things. I love to get an early start at planning and I knew it was possible that this might be the last year I get to choose the theme for his party so Dr. Seuss it was!!! Six months before his William's 2nd birthday I left Target with a basket full of Dr. Seuss decorations and party favors and began planning the party! The party was a huge success...we all had so much fun...but I had tons of left over Dr. Seuss stuff. What do you do when it's time for a play date on March 2 and you have lots of Dr. Seuss stuff??? You have a birthday party for Dr. Seuss!!!

They painted while we watched "The Cat in the Hat"

The finished product...One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish

He loves stickers!!!

I attempted to take a pic of them together in their Dr. Seuss shirts...this is the best I got. They were so much easier to photograph when they were babies!

The cupcakes

Yummy

I'm not sure how much of the cake they ate but at least they enjoyed the icing!
