I've already planned my #2's 1st birthday.. and I'm only 16 weeks pregnant! I have the venue, cake, and decorations all figured out... </p> <p>We had a smash cake, ordered a really cute custom cake for her, I did all of the decorations and decided on a spring theme since she was born in the spring. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-cute-things-you-didare-doing-for-their-1st#post-216752 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 17:41:42 +0000 regberadaisy 216752@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: I looove the idea of pictures Of her "firsts"!!! Can I steal it???<br /> And we have two friends that are really great amateur photographers. I totally plan on asking them to take pictures!</p> <p>Speaking of vendors I would looove to have the local taco truck cater. We'll see how expensive that is. Gasp might take a bit of convincing to the husband.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-cute-things-you-didare-doing-for-their-1st#post-216691 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 17:09:20 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 216691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm knee deep in planning Baby Jumpers first. She's really into Mickey Mouse Clubhouse &amp; love's Minnie, so we're having a Glam Minnie Party. Lots of pinks, black &amp; white stripes, and glitter (where I can get away with it). </p> <p>Here are my ideas, so far:</p> <p>1. She was born in the fall so as a nod to season we'll be serving candy apples, decorated to match her theme.<br /> 2. We're having a dessert bar/candy station<br /> 3. I'm making a big backdrop for the candy bar to match her theme<br /> 4. We will showcase her monthly pictures<br /> 5. And her "first" pictures (first tooth, first time sitting up, first time eating solids, first hair cut, etc)<br /> 6. I'm having Minnie cookies made, covered in Disco Dust<br /> 7. We booked a photographer to take her first birthday photos (not for at the party, but similar to a newborn photo shoot. We hired the same photographer &amp; I'll use the photo(s) in her invitation)</p> <p>I've been collecting ideas for a few months, am working on designing the decor, and have booked a few vendors so far :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-cute-things-you-didare-doing-for-their-1st#post-216567 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 14:48:37 +0000 LuLu Mom 216567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: I'll try to remember to post some, it's not until September so we have awhile :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-cute-things-you-didare-doing-for-their-1st#post-216566 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 14:47:04 +0000 regberadaisy 216566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: ooh cute idea for April babies! M is also a April baby and I'm tossing around the idea of doing a "earth day/green" theme.</p> <p>@jessiejo17: would love to see pics of how her "1" theme turns out!</p> <p>@Thehistoryofus: I don't know why but I love polka dots on little girls!</p> <p>@artbee: YES!

I have no idea on her outfit! haha I kinda want to/don't want to do the onesie + tutu skirt. It's SO cute but I want something different. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-cute-things-you-didare-doing-for-their-1st#post-216561 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 14:45:52 +0000 MrsTiz 216561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm surprised to see so many non-cartoon parties here, that's the norm where i'm at and it is very much not my style. You're not neurotic OP- I already have my LO's first birthday outfit picked out, and i'm not pregnant lmao</p> <p>I'm loving all of the turquoise and red/coral themed kids parties i've seen on pinterest </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-cute-things-you-didare-doing-for-their-1st#post-216557 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 14:42:36 +0000 mrsjyw 216557@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>First birthdays are a huge deal in the Korean culture and with LO being the first grandbaby for my parents, it will be a huge party with family/friends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-cute-things-you-didare-doing-for-their-1st#post-216555 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 14:41:35 +0000 heffalump 216555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're doing a rose garden theme because her name is Rose. I'm trying not to go too crazy with it.... I made a ton of tissue paper flowers and I'll have pictures of her from throughout the year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-cute-things-you-didare-doing-for-their-1st#post-216508 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 13:55:54 +0000 loveisstrange 216508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha. I've been pinning party ideas since C was like 4 weeks! Lol</p> <p>We're going to do a rainbow themed b-day. She was born in April so I figured I'd play off of that and do a rainbow/April showers kind of thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-cute-things-you-didare-doing-for-their-1st#post-216485 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 13:36:00 +0000 T.H.O.U. 216485@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are doing lime green and hot pink polka dots. I can't wait. Don't think we really have anything special planned though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-cute-things-you-didare-doing-for-their-1st#post-216479 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 13:31:16 +0000 LuLu Mom 216479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have been helping my sister plan my niece's. She is doing a cheetah theme with bright pink. Not really my ideal but it fits her for sure. </p> <p>We are doing a smash cake &amp; a faux-booth for silly pictures. She is also using the number 1 as a "theme" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-cute-things-you-didare-doing-for-their-1st#post-216472 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 13:24:12 +0000 regberadaisy 216472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Even though M is only 10 weeks old I've been pinning ideas for her first since before she was born. Neurotic, much? :P</p> <p>What are some cute &amp; unique things you did for your LO's 1st celebration??</p> <p>I want to bake her bday &amp; smash cake every year.<br /> using the number 1 as a cohesive theme and putting 1 candle on invites.<br /> Can't decide on a color yet. I want something feminine but modern. Maybe gray and lavender/lilac?</p> <p>What about you? </p>
