Lil' Mootz's 1/2 Mad Tea Party!

Happy 1/2 Birthday, my Lil' Mootz! I can not believe that six months ago - SIX MONTHS - you were born. It certainly does not feel like six months. That's probably because (aside from a certain deployment, of course) it has been the most fabulous six months of my life. I've never laughed more, cooed more, been more awestruck, been more frustrated, slept less, been more proud, and I've never been so head-over-heels, fully, completely, heart-and-soul in love with anyone than I am with you.

So let's get this party started! Tonight at your Aunt Cheese's house we are having a nice little 1/2 birthday celebration with ice cream cake, kabobs (baby food, for you), s'mores, and PRESENTS! However, in bloggy land we're joining A Fanciful Twist, along with all the other blog guests, and having a Mad Tea Party. (And at noon, Lil' Mootz's Top Commenter contest ends. Check back later for the winner!)


Our Lil' Mad Hatter and all his friends!



A Very Merry 1/2 Birthday To You!



To me?!



To YOU!



Trying to eat his cake.


And once he's had all the tea and cake he wants, the Lil' Mad Hatter tries out his new swing and slide!








After a wonderfully Mad time, our Lil' Mad Hatter takes his nap.

omg that is way too cute of an idea!!! i will have to keep that in mind for Maks first birthday!! i wanted so badly to do a carnival or zoo theme birthday, but then realized that he is a december baby. no fun there. as soon as he is old enough to appreciate birthday parties we are going to have his half birthday as the party with his friends! june is perfect for a crazy fun outside party with friends!

It is so curious that these Mad Tea Parties are still going strong! I've yet to clean mine up, so please feel free to follow me back down the rabbit hole to Haute Whimsy before life goes back to mundane!
