Dang mama! TMI! lol jk. :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102785 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:08:32 +0000 heffalump 102785@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: I disagree. I get so turned on thinking we might be making a LO! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102784 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:07:44 +0000 chopsuey 102784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: DH travels, so I would probably drive myself crazy if I was TTC and he was away while I was ovulating! Plus, sex is funner when you're not thinking about babies! :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102782 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:06:54 +0000 chopsuey 102782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blushink: Our small is about 20 as well. ;P I'm going to have to stop inviting friends and family who don't have LOs probably. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102781 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:06:40 +0000 heffalump 102781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: I'm way too much of a planner for that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102779 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:06:15 +0000 chopsuey 102779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: HAHA I just answered it! :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102778 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:06:14 +0000 heffalump 102778@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blushink: Everybody loves dessert! Or could you find a theme that pizza fits into so you can just order some pizzas? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102776 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:06:01 +0000 chopsuey 102776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: Oh, we have a healthy sex life, but! I'm not charting and doing all that other stuff. I don't even know when I'm ovulating for sure. So that's what I mean about not TTC. Just letting things happen naturally! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102775 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:05:27 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 102775@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The issue for us, is even if we do something small we are still 25+ people. Maybe I'll just do dessert table? Or like a cookies and cream theme. I dunno. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102774 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:05:26 +0000 heffalump 102774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: Way to dodge my first question! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102773 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:04:38 +0000 chopsuey 102773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: Oh just kidding! Very Hungry Caterpillar!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102772 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:04:16 +0000 chopsuey 102772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: I have no idea what VHC stands for! And my brain doesn't want to try to guess what it means! :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102770 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:03:08 +0000 heffalump 102770@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: Why are you holding out on TTC then? You need to join pinterest, there are so many cute VHC ideas! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102752 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 09:57:02 +0000 chopsuey 102752@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: My LO loves her Llama Llama, she also likes the Hungry Caterpillar. I'll probably wait until she's about.. 20 months old before I set a theme in stone. I really want to order a specialty cake for each birthday, but they're not cheap!<br /> DH and I aren't TTC, but he really wants me to get pregnant soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102734 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 09:52:00 +0000 heffalump 102734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: What themes are you thinking? We're also planning our TTC around LO's birthday because we don't want them to have the same birthday month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102732 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 09:50:22 +0000 Andrea 102732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our 1st bday was pretty low key - 2nd bday will be the same except I am going to spend a lot less money on it. I am not getting a custom cake and there won't be so much food. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102730 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 09:49:16 +0000 Mrs. Bee 102730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>nope we just had a cake at home for charlie's 2nd. i don't think we're going to do a party for olive's first either.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102729 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 09:48:36 +0000 chopsuey 102729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: HAHAHA to the tissue paper!! :D I hope LO and #2 have birthdays that are at LEAST 3 months apart. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102728 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 09:48:04 +0000 chopsuey 102728@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went somewhat all out for LO's 1st. The party was more for our friends and fam than her though. 2nd birthday will be for LO and her friends. I'll probably go crazier with decorations, favors and kid friendly food! Already thinking about themes... :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102727 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 09:45:55 +0000 heffalump 102727@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It probably depends where I am in life. If I am super pregnant or have another LO who is teeny tiny, I probably won't. Or I'll pick a theme that is easier and doesn't require hundreds of tissue paper flowers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-planning-a-big-2nd-birthday-like-the-first#post-102719 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 09:43:34 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 102719@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went all out for my son's birthday (more for me than him seeing he won't remember a thing) but I was wondering if you are going all out for the 2nd birthday as well. </p> <p>The first was a lot of work and planning but I was super happy about the outcome, but now when I should start planning for birthday #2 I don't know if I will go all out again (meaning theme, invites, decor, food etc)</p> <p>I don't want to do a classic "paper plates and balloons" like my mom used to have for me when I was young, but I just don't know how much or how little I should do. His birthday is in July and by then baby girl will be 2 months old. </p> <p>Thoughts? </p>
