Iyla is going to be two on Thursday so this weekend we somehow managed to cram eight toddlers and twelve adults into our house for a party. The theme was In the Night Garden meets Halloween and although it took me the first half of the party to finish the cake, I eventually ended up with something that resembled a Tombliboo!

I do just have to point out that I am not responsible for the mouth or eyes, I left Dad2BabyInsomniac alone for one minute and this is what I came back to!

I also made little cakes with Tombliboo heads sticking out…

The kids all dressed up which was very cute…

We had a lovely weekend and I can’t believe by this time next week I will have a two year old!

    The cake is amazing Jess, an attempt you should be pretty proud of I would say. Iyla looks lovely in her little dress, and I love how you have blocked out the rest of the faces with pumpkins- very creative if not a little scary! x
