We even have baby video of her listening intently at a month old. That's our party theme. We are one month away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-35094 Fri, 16 Dec 2011 09:11:22 +0000 Mrs. Marbles 35094@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're still trying to figure this one out and time is running out. LM's birthday is in 2 months! I wanted to do a Hello Kitty theme, but will save it for when she's older and can appreciate it. Right now, we're thinking French/Parisian tea party. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-35065 Fri, 16 Dec 2011 08:28:58 +0000 heffalump 35065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsMamaBear: Such a cute idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-35060 Fri, 16 Dec 2011 06:30:34 +0000 MsMamaBear 35060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm thinking a cupcake theme. I said if baby ended up a girl, her theme for everything would be cupcakes.LOL I'm looking on Etsy now. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-34735 Thu, 15 Dec 2011 13:35:54 +0000 heffalump 34735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All the first birthday parties that I've been to have had themes picked by the one year old. So naturally I thought I'd have to wait and see what my LO likes. But I'm a planner and want to start thinking about it now, even though it's 7 1/2 months in advance. </p> <p>I'll probably go with a garden/rose theme since her name is Rose. That way it's at least about her even if she's not picking the theme. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-34669 Thu, 15 Dec 2011 11:57:45 +0000 Red 34669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We (ok, it was just me) chose to do a bunny-themed party since I was born in the year of the rabbit and I often call her my bunny.</p> <p>We had it at a play gym with a separate reception room that we decorated with all types of bunny stuff. I made a individual bunny cake (carrot cake, of course) for her, bunny cupcakes for all the guests, bunny-folded napkins, bunny food signs, and snack favors that were packaged to look like carrots. It was lots of fun, oh and the LO had a good time too. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-34650 Thu, 15 Dec 2011 11:45:05 +0000 brownie 34650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are going to do a peter pan theme. We are asking for donations in lieu of gifts (really he doesn't want for anything) and we are donating to my nephews cancer hospital. He won't remember much so it was a win win all around. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-34627 Thu, 15 Dec 2011 11:14:32 +0000 Rubies 34627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think that when LO turns one, I'll choose a theme that *I* like...HAHAHAHA. She doesn't know what's going on - I might as well do something *I* like! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-34599 Thu, 15 Dec 2011 11:00:11 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 34599@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How did we choose? It took a while but I know I wanted something unique and wanted to blog about it. </p> <p>So we went with a vintage paper boy theme. It was a success! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-34521 Thu, 15 Dec 2011 08:10:01 +0000 Andrea 34521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had an owl theme because her nursery is decorated with some owl stuffed animals. I don't think my LO had a preference for anything at that time so I just picked it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-34498 Thu, 15 Dec 2011 00:22:26 +0000 cyndistar3 34498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter had a butterfly themed first birthday because thats what she showed most intrest in at the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-34491 Wed, 14 Dec 2011 23:48:11 +0000 Rosie Girl 34491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't really have a theme for his 1st birthday. I got balloons in every color, and for his cake I had a little toy 4-wheeler put on it because he did like those at the time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-34431 Wed, 14 Dec 2011 21:55:45 +0000 Boogs 34431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just picked something I thought would be cute and wanted to save character themes and such for when he's old enough to choose himself. The theme for his first birthday will be a carnival. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-34405 Wed, 14 Dec 2011 21:33:01 +0000 mrs. wagon 34405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I chose colors I liked, aqua blue and red, based on the hanbok (Korean suit) we borrowed from a friend. The theme of a red balloon in a blue sky kind of grew from that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-34361 Wed, 14 Dec 2011 20:59:09 +0000 chopsuey 34361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: you're totally invited if you can make it down here! :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-34358 Wed, 14 Dec 2011 20:58:06 +0000 Rubies 34358@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: I want to visit Atlanta JUST for your LO's birthday! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-34345 Wed, 14 Dec 2011 20:52:40 +0000 chopsuey 34345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>**edit. jk. My LO LOOOOOVES our laptops and iphones! technology would be an ugly theme though. :P</p> <p>I decided on a spring theme for my LO's bday party since she was born at the end of March. My LO doesn't LOVE anything yet. She likes Sophie, likes her musical toys, likes her stuffed Labbit..<br /> It's my LO's first bday, but she doesn't have any friends yet so the party'll be for our family and friends to enjoy.<br /> Bdays #2-18 will be for her and her buddies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1st-birthday-party-theme#post-34337 Wed, 14 Dec 2011 20:49:44 +0000 heffalump 34337@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How did you decide the theme for your lo's first birthday party? Was it something your lo liked or did you just pick? </p>
