I thought this beach house living room photographed by Andrew Hensler for The Washington Post perfectly captured my mood today with its cheery color palette! Love the white slipcovered sofa against the pretty wall color (Benjamin Moore’s Caribbean Mist) with the pops of vibrant color! You can tour the entire Dewey Beach, Delaware home here!
This post was a short one, we’re both going to take the rest of the day off to celebrate Wesley turning one! We had a (very colorful) party over the weekend…I’ll share some pics below! Still have to take his monthly “chair” photo today, so I’ll share that later. As for the much-anticipated smash cake, we didn’t get very far before he had a meltdown. Turns out he’s not a big fan of frosting or sticky fingers!
Seriously you guys, I cannot believe he’s ONE and a full blown toddler now! What an exciting year this was….full of milestones, lots of laughs, long nights and sweet moments I’ll never forget! Happy 1st Birthday Wesley! 🙂
I have The Internet/Etsy/Pinterest to thank for all of the party-planning inspiration:

Congratulations on making it to one year! The party looks so cute. I love my daily hit of turquoise inspiration. Thanks!
the decorations are so cute!! Great job, Erin!! Love little Wesley's pictures. so funny….at that age some kids do the face plant and giggle and some, like Wesley, seem to be saying, "what am I supposed to be doing here, Mom??" Adorable baby!!
Aww, happy birthday, Wesley!!
Erin, your house is so pretty! You so a post in it. I'd love to see more.
Congratulations on your first successful year!
Ugh! Auto correct- what I meant is, you should do a post on your house. 🙂
Happy Birthday, Wesley! ! ! He's such a cutie!
It looks like it was a lovely party! I love the expression on his face where he is staring at his hand. You can almost hear him saying, "Ewwwwwwe, icky!" 🙂 And such a pretty cake, too!
Poor little guy! But, I have no doubt that will all change soon and he'll be diving into that cake one day! And mud, and . . . 🙂
They can be so funny about what they like and don't like and how they let you know about it! Hope the rest of the day is a great one for him! 🙂
Happy Birthday to your sweet Wesley!
My how time gets away from us.
