Ilah's 1st Birthday was a little over 5 months ago and I just realized {when I saw it yesterday} that I never posted pictures of the little keepsake box that I bought to house sweet reminders of her first birthday in. I thought this would be something special to give to Ilah when he is an adult. I bought this box for just $2.99 at ROSS, months before Ilah's birthday. In fact, it was one of the first purchases that I made, even before I delved in to buying lots of her decor.
Eventually I will get around to labeling this box "Ilah's 1st Birthday Keepsakes" and place it in the alloted space on the box.
I still need to place some more things inside, like photos of the actual birthday party. I had bought a photo album that had birds on it and it was so cute but it was too big to fit inside so I returned it because I wanted everything to fit inside this one box. So I still need to get a mini photo album and print out pictures of Ilah's bird-theme 1st birthday party: Our "Tweetheart" turns 1!For now, here are the contents of what's inside Ilah's keepsake box:
All of the cards that she received when she turned 1....
The cute little Dora slippers that she wore on her birthday, along with some of the party decor....
Ilah's birthday hat, that I made for her - and the cute little food labels that I made out of paper, felt and fabric.....
One of the nests, and speckled eggs sitting inside of it, that were out on display around the food {there were many, as these were also on each of the place settings}....
The ribbon that was wrapped around the cake server.....
The "Happy Birthday Ilah" banner that I made to adorn the top of her cake....
The little overall dress that she wore on her birthday!...And the "1" that was stuck in her cupcake!....
The hairbow that I made to match her darling little birdie dress.....

I can't believe that Ilah is 16 months old TODAY!...and that I have already begun planning her 2nd birthday party : )
If you haven't yet seen the pictures of Ilah's 1st Birthday {or if you just want to see them again!}, here are the links: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, The Day After
