I wanted to make her something special to play with, so Alannah and I decided on a princess and the pea playset - idea totally stolen from SouleMama. (we also gave her the princess and the pea book by Lauren Child - of Charlie and Lola fame)
Immy loved it! They've been playing princess and the pea all over the house. "MUM WHERE'S MY PEA?" is a common utterance around these parts nowadays.
I also whipped up a little tutu and she got real ballet shoes!
And a washing line to help mummy with the house work ;)
We had a yummy hedgehog cake created by aunty Liesey, dressing ups with little friends and treasure hunting - what fun!

FABULOUS gift, looks like it's gone down a treat. It must've been very gratifying to make too... how lovely. Your kids look adorable.
I made that hedgehog cake a few years ago for my husband's birthday! My poor kids have not had anything so glamourous.
Now I must say that your hubby looks like he's wearing some kind of dinosoar/dragon red spikey spine in that first photo! What IS that behind him?
oh so cute!
was looking at the pics and thought lan's white dress was LOVELY. than remembered I bought it for her. GO ME. ha ha.
i want a princess and the pea set now too!!
Note to Gina: the "kind of dinosoar/dragon red spikey spine" thing behind ed is a painting of a heliconia i did for ed & chris a few years back.
