{All photography (except for the after party ones) is by Stacey Downey Photography, editing by The Art of Making a Baby}.
Some of the photos got over-sharpened in the process, but I was out of time to redo the collages. Boo.
Once most of the guests left, we let the babies play at the Svan Table and Chairs ( which by the way is the best freaking thing ever). Some roses and sweet snacks entertained them for a very long time.
Then we had a mini photoshoot of the (technically two) birthday girls, Alexis and Alexa and finally just hung out with the family and opened gifts.
I won’t be giving you a play-by-play- the photos are pretty self-explanatory.
COMING UP ON WEDNESDAY
A Veggie Soup for Toddlers: How to get your kid to eat their veggies.
We see pics of your Alexi all the time, so we know what a doll she is – but I just wanted to say how freaking adorable other Lexi is too! What a doll – she has the most delicate, sweet little face! She looks like she’s tall like your Lexi too – or maybe even taller? Hard to tell. Either way, adorable!
(P.S. the pic of you smelling the rose sitting at the table is in there twice!)
Yes, she’s absolutely beautiful. I have some gorgeous photos of her coming up that I took for our Easter Photoshoot.
Your photography is stunning, girl! Thank you for sharing! Love flicking your works through, its absolutely gorgeous just like yourself :))
Such a great photo post! She’s got lots of people who adore her, lucky girl. I can’t be,I’ve how much her hair has grown in just a few short months!
Also, Andrew looks so much like GrandmaUSA!

What a perfect party…inspiration for other like me in love with the Paris theme.
Where did you get the after party outfit? It’s so cute
Thanks for sharing
Thank you!
Which one is it?
Elena,
I’m obsessed with Paris as well, so seeing your ideas had help me a lot to plan by next October first Birthday for my daughter. I was talking about the outfit she has on the few first pictures of the “{The after Party}” chapter. You are holding her on the air…and it has the Eiffel Tower on the front and all over bottom. Is simply adorable!!!!! Thanks much for sharing!
Hey, Mai!
I wrote about it here: https://everyavenuelife.com/2013/04/first-birthday-party-smash-cake/
It doesn’t look like it’s being sold anymore 🙁
I’ll be happy to send you mine, if you’d like. I’ll have to see if there are any stains, but otherwise it was only worn once.
Elena, I’ve checked the link you mentioned PoppinDotsBoutique but they don’t have it any more…
Would you send me yours? For real? OMG, that’s awesome 🙂
Please let me know how should we do.
