Little Brother's Birthday Attire

**So apparently something has happened to last week's full birthday party post...I'm trying to fix it/redo it, so until then enjoy outfits!**

If you are having a sock monkey birthday party, you must have a sock monkey hat!  There are so many crocheted hats on etsy.  I was really close to buying one, and then I found this FREE pattern from Red Heart.  This is the first hat like this type that I have crocheted.  It was a perfect fit!


If you have read my blog much, you know that I like to make shirts...Circus Party ShirtMustache ShirtsWatermelon Party ShirtSt. Patrick's Day Shirt, and my all time favorite Lotte's Ruffle Chickie Shirt...

So here is Brother's birthday shirt.


I love the bunting because we used a lot of them throughout the party decorations.

He is actually blowing kisses here...not saying "Oh.Come.On."

For his cake smash, I didn't want just his birthday suit (HAHA) so I made him cute little man suspenders in decor-matching fabric.  If you didn't see it last week, you can see the tutorial HERE.  And here is a little tip for you...the white diaper cover is actually "bloomers" from one of sisters spring dresses from when she was little.  reduce REUSE recycle.



He got rather messy with his little cake.  I love the "blue beard" look!  It isn't a first birthday if Mommy and Daddy don't have icing all over their faces too!
