Time flies when you’re busy chasing your little busy-body around the house. I can’t believe my baby girl is almost one! This weekend we threw a birthday bash for Ayla. When deciding on a theme, it was pretty easy—her favourite “person” in the world is our dog Kacie (although unfortunately, I don’t think Kacie feels the same way about Ayla).

What is a party without some decorations? I was able to find most of what I needed from the Dollar store. I started by making a banner out of scrapbooking paper (check out the birthday banner instructions here).
