Party Like a Rockstar!

Cayden and I attended Baby Z's "1st Birthday Gig" yesterday.  The theme of the party was a rock n roll theme and all of the guests were asked to attend wearing their best rockstar attire.  I have to say that it was the cutest and cleverest idea.  Seeing all of those babies, toddlers, and young children running around dressed like little rockstars was just too precious.  I didn't take the opportunity to snap as many pictures as I should have so you'll just have to take my word on how cute some of it really was, but the pictures I did get were just adorable.  The hosting parents had a section of their hallway set up with a sign that read "Tattoo Parlor" where they were giving the little ones some pretty awesome temporary tattoos.  There was another room set up with some kid friendly music where the kids could play and dance and the birthday boy's cake was cupcakes set atop of ice cream cones that were decorated to look like little microphones.  All in all it was a very cute and fun party.  I'm so glad that we were able to attend.

Getting Cayden ready for the party was actually quite fun. With some jeans, a t-shirt, some hair gel, silly bands, one of my chokers from back in the day, and an eye liner pencil it wasn't long before my cute little guy was transformed into an even cuter looking rockstar.  This is probably what most people who know me thought my son would look like on a regular basis and I have to admit that he was pretty darn cute. So of course I had to snap a few pictures of him before we headed out of the door.

With his little AC/DC t-shirt, his faux hawk and his tattoos Baby Z was just the cutest little birthday boy.  

Baby B was just way too adorable and when she got out on the dance floor she was one wild and crazy rocker!

After the opening of presents the kids participated in a game of dance freeze and loved it.  R.M. and Hadders were having tons of fun rocking out and freezing like little robots.

Cayden for some reason took a different approach to the dancing and instead decided to hide out over by the door pretending to be shy.  

It wasn't long before Baby Z's big Sis R was able to coax Cayden away from the door and to join in on the party fun.  It was like being at a rock concert full of midgets who were all jumping and bouncing to the music.  Lots of fun.

In the end most of the kids were gathered together for a quick group picture.  Of course they're not all looking in the direction of the camera. There was no posing and most definitely no standing still. But hey, what else would you expect from a group that is 5 and under?  All in all, they are really just the cutest bunch of kids ever!
