Perfectly Pink Birthday
Having a little girl has been such a wonderful blessing to my life. As a child, like most little girls, I dressed up my dolls, did their hair, and named them. Remember the doll kenya with the beads, hair bows, and braids? Well, those memories are nice but we all know that our daughters require a bit more, and we want to give them the world. For those who are determined to reach this goal on a budget, ( lol!) I have some great examples of how you can give your little divas the perfect pink birthday.
- Theme
Figure out a theme for your baby girl’s special day. You can begin with choosing the colors you would like to use for the party or a character that your child adores. You can’t go wrong with the color pink and a splash of Hello Kitty. Just choose a theme that will make your child smile.
- Birthday clothing
Shopping for small children is so exciting! Every mom knows you can find great deals on quality clothing if you look before you shop. There are so many unique clothing lines for children on the internet. One line that I found is called Lilliputians. Lilliputians Cupcake Cutie Black & Hot Pink Birthday Skirt Outfit had some of the coolest birthday outfits I’d ever seen. The outfit that I was considering for my daughter is one of the many fabulous birthday outfits that you can choose from. You can find this beautiful clothing on the net for different prices.

For my baby’s birthday, I went with a hello kitty theme. After she was born,her first gift was a hello kitty from build a bear. If she pressed the paws she could hear me singing a lullaby to her.She is a big hello kitty fan. Hello kitty is cute and sometimes blinged out; A perfect combination making it a favorite in my home for my baby and me. This love for the cartoon character led me in my decision to choose the pinkest, fluffy sparkle dress I could find. Her dress was about twenty dollars and her little pink pearls were under three dollars from target. 
3. cake
Cup cakes are the new trend for every event from birthday parties to wedding. So, I decided to get a baker to make my daughter a batch of hello kitty cupcakes. The red velvet cupcakes were delicious! The freshly baked cupcakes were purchased from CEO Custom Cakes & Novelties. When my daughter saw these wonderful cupcakes she gave the baker the biggest smile.
4. Guest list
Dont worry about not having lots of kids to invite to the second birthday. At two, my child is not quite the socialite yet. However, we had a couple of family members over, and she knew that everything was about her.
I set up the dining room with pink balloons, hello kitty decorations, and even included some extra robot gift bags and place settings for my little boy. This is a good way to include the siblings and keep them from feeling left out, girl or boy.

The robot bags are cute, but my son’s favorite part of the party was eating cupcakes and ice cream.
5. Party favors and gifts
Motherhood allows us all to learn. The party made me think of the stories my mom and aunts would tell about their simple christmas holidays back in the day. They didn’t get large gifts and gadgets like many children do now. However, they enjoyed good music, good food and just a good time. I guess their fruit and candy filled christmas stories inspired me to fill my daughters gift bags up with all sorts of goodies. The bag was filled with hello kitty stickers, crayons, notepads. She had sunglasses, candy, and coloring books. These party city gifts might seem simple, but to a little girl who loves to draw on walls and has a secret stash of crayons hidden somewhere, the gifts were perfect.

Divas, I found the ice cream bowls and plate sets at target. These sets had matching cups and were priced around 99cents each. These kid friendly dish sets are a great alternative to buying paper plates.
The day was a great success! My daughter adored her hello kitty birthday room and I am looking forward to my baby boy’s birthday in november so that I can do it all again.
