Despite having a brand new baby only two months ago—baby girl number three in four years—I decided I did not want to wimp out when planning Savannah’s fourth birthday party. However, I will admit the thought crossed my mind—more than once. But ultimately, I figured our lives had been disrupted enough this summer; we haven’t left the house much since baby’s arrival. I figured I could at least give her that. And I am so glad I did. My baby girl loved her mermaid princess birthday party and the break from our self-imposed house arrest (maybe more). I mean, come on, guys, it’s been about 100 degrees every day since June.

Savannah is currently obsessed with everything mermaids and princesses, so planning her party this year was kind of a no-brainer. Perfect, because this tired mama desperately needed easy. Luckily, we found an adorable mermaid-themed invite on Etsy, which we printed at home on card stock from our local craft store. (This saved us time and money.) I also found a coordinating garland (here and here), a super-cute mermaid cake topper, and a few other party items online. Have I told you lately that I love you, Etsy? Because you, my virtual friend, are a major lifesaver!

Thank you, LittleBannerShop, for the super-cute, custom birthday garland! Savannah loved it, and so did our guests. I highly recommend it! (And considering we have three girls, we will probably reuse it.)

Thank you, BlueOakCreations, for the fabulous seashell garlands! Our party would not have been the same without you.

We held the party at our neighborhood Splash Pad — shaped like a giant pirate ship. I mean, could it have been a more perfect location for a mermaid birthday party? I think not. My girls are obsessed with the Splash Pad, and I also knew Savannah’s little friends would be. Plus, it was the perfect way to cool off on a hot summer day — without being responsible for keeping an eye on everyone’s children in a swimming pool.

We purchased the mermaid birthday cake from our favorite Texas grocery store (HEB) for a whopping $22. Can you believe that?! We brought them a picture, which they came up with. I was so impressed. And the cake was delicious. We also had cupcakes iced to match the party colors: purple, mint, blue, and gold. I’d say it was a smashing success! It’s super simple to achieve (probably my favorite part).

We had so much fun celebrating our little Mermaid Princess! I know this is a weekend, Savannah (nor we) will forget for a long time. Baby Brooklyn probably won’t remember, but we can always show her pictures. 😉 It is another wonderful memory for our precious family to treasure. Birthdays are the best! Thanks for sharing in the excitement, Mommy Chicks! xoxo
