If you’ve been following along on Instagram, then you know we recently moved. Before leaving, I really wanted to capture some last memories of Eleanor in the house we brought her home to. While at the time her birthday was still 7 weeks away, I wanted to throw her a little birthday bash with just the 3 of us! Now her birthday is less than 30 days away and I still can’t believe we’re going to have a two year old.

Eleanor absolutely loves cats, so I thought it was only fitting to have a kitten themed birthday! Most of the table settings were found at Ellie & Piper, while others were found at Homegoods. Seeking help from Pinterest, I was able to make yarn balls by simply wrapping styrofoam balls with yarn. They are probably one of my favorite features on the table. I found her tutu at Zara and made her shirt using my silhouette. I tackled my first balloon arch using a kit I found on Amazon. Her hair accessories were found on a random trip to Osh Kosh.

I’m really excited with how everything turned out & I’m glad we chose to capture these images at our old house. As her real birthday approaches, we’re planning to host a drive-by party that features more kitten themed fun! So stay tuned for more birthday photos!
