Lucy's Second Birthday

How can it be that time goes so quickly when you have little people.  My baby girl, who I'm sure was only just born a few months ago, is now two.  YES, TWO!   I honestly feel like that has just passed us by in the blink of an eye and there are things that I really can't remember happening - like her crawling.

We've generally had big party, small party, big party, small party, when it comes to birthdays.  When Milly was one she had a huge party and for her second birthday it was just a cake and bbq with friends.  We followed that pattern until she started school, when we gave her a big party for her first year at school and then tapered back after that.  We always celebrate in some way though.

This year Lucy had a small family party.  Her favourite two things in the world are the Bananas in Pyjamas and Peppa Pig.  Let me tell you now - it is a LOT easier to find Peppa Pig toys than it is to find anything Bananas in Pyjamas.  So, Peppa Pig became the focus for her party.  I was determined to do most of it myself this year but I did have help from a few wonderful people, including Deb from Debbas Cakes, who created the cutest Peppa Pig cookies.

Here are some shots from the party and a list of where I got everything to create this cute little table:

Easter and Housework

Can you believe that Easter is already here?  Yesterday school finished in Queensland and the start of the Easter break was upon us.  To be honest, it feels like Miss Milly just went back to school and now she is at the end of Term 1.  Yes, ten weeks flew by-  just… like… that.


It is a rainy weekend here this weekend so I am taking the chance to do MillyBoo Designs "housework".  It has been over a year since I last posted on our blog.  Why?  Well, because basically I had forgotten it existed and when I went to look for where I thought it was, I couldn't find it.  Cat was our original blog poster, so I've only really put the one post up.  Now that I know where it is, you can be assured I will be posting more.

Our Easter plans are small, however I have decided to create a little table for my girls using our Easter Owls range and some little treats.  This is going to be a small table.  My girls will be having an Easter Egg Hunt as well so the extra treats really aren't needed!




If you, like me, have decided to throw something together last minute, maybe one of our Easter ranges would make the perfect addition to your table.  Check them out below and if you are interested, email us at millyboodesigns@gmail.com or contact us via Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/MillyBooDesigns
