We're doing just family this year. Brock loves Toy Story, so I want to get him a Woody doll. We're doing a football cake, because he loves football as well. We're doing kind of a cluster of different themes that he likes. We're doing it at 3:00 so Brock can nap, and we're having lasagna for an early dinner. Very small and simple!
Hayden's bday is on a Wed, so just having all moms that I know are home during the day w/ their kids. I sent 10 invites out. Elmo/Sesame Street theme. I might buy an Oscar or Elmo costume and force my brother in law to dress up. Otherwise, just a low key cake/pizza/play party in our place.
For gifts, I got Hayden a monogramed little back pack from PB Kids, and some rain boots and matching umbrella from Hatley (check them out online - love their stuff).
I wanted to ask when is the OK age to get a little bike? I thought that would be a great gift. Otherwise I will prob just get a few things like Little People, Sesame Street stuff and Little Einsteins. This kid loooves her shows!
Phin's bday is on Tuesday but we had the party on Saturday. We rented out a space at a pizza/games place and he had a ball.
He got a talking Woody doll and he loves it, he tries to wear the hat, it is hilarious. So we are going to get him a cowboy hat so he can wear one that fits.
I can't believe that two years has passed.
I am still exhausted from Lei's 1st birthday party where we had over 50 ppl. WAY too many and I am just not up for it again. So, I thought... well I will just invite 4 of her friends and their parents. Well, those friends have siblings and then I felt obligated to invite them and then my husband thought that our other friends with kids would be offended if we didn't invite them so I said FORGET IT! No party this year.
So, just family for us. Her birthday is Thursday the 3rd, and we will celebrate Saturday.
JEM... We bought Lei a tricycle and she "test drove" it in Target. She keeps calling it a "chair with wheels". Pretty inventive if I do say so myself! haha We also bought her a xylaphone, clothes, and a plastic golf set. That is it :)
Mady got a Dora trik for XMAS and loves it, she cant reachthe peddles to actually fully use it yet,. but she loves riding it around the house....
