I honestly still can’t believe my baby is one! He doesn’t feel ready to be one! I don’t feel ready for him to be one! He still feels like my little baby and I guess he will always feel that way.
This week leading up to his birthday he has been very unwell. The timing was awful of course but we just had to roll with it. He had on and off temperatures during the early days of the week and then he got conjunctivitis but by his actual birthday on Thursday he was just starting to come right.
I had already planned a cake smash for him outdoors. I wanted to go to a beautiful park and have it there with luscious green trees in the background but it poured rain on his birthday (again, timing!) after being bloody beautiful all week so it wasn’t meant to be. Plus he still wasn’t feeling 100 per cent so I didn’t want to have him outside. However, I had already baked his cake and got it all ready so instead I decided to set something up in the warmth and comfort of our own home. I had this leaf backdrop for his party on Sunday and so I used that as my backdrop for the photo shoot. I got the one balloon from Kmart and the white letters are from Typo. The wooden box is from my collection of wooden items and the ONE cake topper is from Etsy and I love it!!
I bought him some adorable green overalls to do the smash in but in the end I decided just to have him in his nappy as it looks freaking adorable and that way he could get messy! I got Finn to join in at the end for a cute brother moment, plus he would do anything for cake. I just love watching those two together!
Enjoy the photos below and I hope you get some inpso to get creative for your own cake smash!
