Our oldest son, Joseph, turned three on December 31st. Due to the croup...we had to push his party to January 5th. He requested, in his words, a "Koko cake, Wilson cake, Brewster cake...Chuggington Chuggineer party!" So, we gave him just that!
Let's start with the birthday banner. Thanks to Rain on a Tin Roof for the awesome idea! The blog has a template you can print and everything! I did the banner in black and yellow cardstock, Chuggineer colors, and in red, blue, and yellow, which are Chug Patrol colors. I think it turned out so cute! I will make one for Jonathan too when he is one!
With decorations, I did Chug Patrol and Chuggineer colors. The table covers were also in those colors.
For the tables, I gave the drinks and all the separate snack items their own cute Chuggington themed names.

| Mtambo's Safrai Animal Cookies and Hoot and Toot's Chugtatstic Sugar Cookies |

| Old Puffer Pete's Old Timey Pretzels and Koko's Chugga Chugga Choo Choo Chips and Dip |

| Wilson and the Chug Patrol's Thirst Rescuing Soda |
Now, for the cake! I think it covered everything he wanted, Brewster (on top because he is Joseph's favorite), Koko, and Wilson. Koko, who is now a passenger train, is heading towards the tunnel opening on the top tier. Chug Patrol Wilson is closing a track, note the sign behind Chug Patrol 1. Chugineer Brewster...he is just looking good! It was made by myself. The ribbon I painted to look like Brewster's Chugineer stripes. It was a white cake with chocolate buttercream.
Overall, I think he had a traintastic Chuggington party!
I loved reading your posts. My daughter is 10 months and has BESS with low tone and mild ventriculomegaly. I cant find much info about it but her neurosurgeon said it's a benign variant of normal. Ugh. My daughter goes to physical therapy 2 times a week as her gross motor skills are delayed. Still wont bear weight on her legs and cried the entire hour last session. She is perfect to me but her struggles make me sad. I don't know if you check this blog anymore but wanted to say thanks for sharing.
