I will be due 4 days after DD's 2nd birthday....so probably something really low key just with family! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2636890 Fri, 14 Oct 2016 11:43:42 +0000 looch 2636890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No party this year, I am so thankful my son hasn't mentioned anything. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2636887 Fri, 14 Oct 2016 11:41:05 +0000 Boogs 2636887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No more birthdays for us this year. DH's is technically next, then LO1. That boy has his party themes planned until he's 14 haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2636879 Fri, 14 Oct 2016 11:20:33 +0000 catlady 2636879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD just turned 3 and her party is this weekend. We are doing a low-key family party and using it as an excuse to get together with some of my cousins and their kids since I haven't seen them in awhile. This year will probably be our last family party though. We've been invited to 5 preschool bdays in the last month alone, so apparently everyone has started doing "kid" parties now, except us. Hopefully DD won't notice (she hasn't yet).</p> <p>@caterw: That sounds amazing! Wish we had something like that close to us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2636871 Fri, 14 Oct 2016 11:05:00 +0000 snowjewelz 2636871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD will be 2 in December; probably a very small family only party, and theme is TBD... Probably a character she's most into then. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2636613 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 23:18:48 +0000 tequiero21 2636613@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My twins will turn 5 in march. There is a place called bricks for kids, where they do like two Legos with the kids. Might do that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2636570 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 21:39:59 +0000 yin 2636570@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO2 turns 3 next month, and we're planning a construction vehicle birthday party for him. It's super stressful right now, and I'm so busy with everything else. He is excited, and it'll end up being a great day for him. This is the first year where birthdays are really special. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2636485 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 19:58:49 +0000 LAZB 2636485@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>L will be 2 in February, and I think we will just do something low key at our neighborhood park </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2636484 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 19:58:38 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 2636484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD turns 3 in February and I'm hoping to hire this traveling petting zoo that we've been to before. They are super organized with the animals, having each kid sit and hold a mat and the animal sits on top. 5 kids at a time in the ring. I love it. I hate the ones where the animals are roaming and the kids just run after them. Stresses me out! So we'll have bunnies, guinea pigs, hedgehogs, chicks, maybe turtles and bearded dragons. It's not really a farm, so I can't do that theme. Maybe I'll just come up with a random theme instead. Lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2636471 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 19:44:08 +0000 catgirl 2636471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD will be two in December. We're doing a brunch party at home, just inviting family. There will be 20 people at most. The theme is just colorful confetti, so an excuse for lots of sprinkles and bright colors. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2636468 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 19:37:35 +0000 irene 2636468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS turns 5 in January. We didn't have a party for him last year, and DS really really REALLY wanted one (that was all he talked about at one point, and he insisted on inviting "EVERYBODY") so I was going to throw him one. After doing a lot of research of various venues, and with DH's job in jeopardy at the moment, DH just didn't think it is reasonable to throw away $500 for a basic party, which I agree. We asked DS he has a choice of getting legos as birthday gift, or throwing a birthday party and he won't get a gift from us at all. DS chose legos. He said he no longer wants a party. Interestingly enough, he has never talked about the birthday party again. (Maybe he forgot lol)</p> <p>I think we can invite a few of his friends home, do a play date, cut a cake, and call it a day. It is a bummer I 'd have to do all the before/after clean up as we don't have a cleaning lady.. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2636451 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 19:21:32 +0000 gentlelunette 2636451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not too sure, but I'm going to have a newborn, so it'll likely be something really low key. Maybe just lunch and cupcakes at our house. She'll only be 2, so I don't think she'll care too much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2636449 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 19:18:15 +0000 Foodnerd81 2636449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The baby turns one a week before Christmas, and my little sister is due with her first a few days after the birthday, plus my 3 year old has never had an actual birthday party.... so no parties until my toddler's 4th bday in the summer! Can't give the baby a party before the toddler has one! </p> <p>Probably no real theme besides birthday and 'we finally have a house big enough to have a party'. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2636442 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 19:13:18 +0000 erinbaderin 2636442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>B turns 3 in January. We rented the gym where he does gymnastics, and I think we'all probably do a Thomas theme. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2636434 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 19:10:59 +0000 caterw 2636434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD just turned 3 and I already planned her 4th birthday lol. Since her sister will be born within a couple of weeks, I am going to do a shared party at a local apple orchard. We are gonna have a teddy bear picnic theme and the orchard provides a donut tower birthday cake, cider, and pick your own apples. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2636424 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 19:05:29 +0000 travellingbee 2636424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Canoli: that's cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2636422 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 19:03:40 +0000 Canoli 2636422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son will be 5 at the end of the month. We are having his party at a local art center and the director is going to get wooden letters and all the kids will get to paint them in a superhero theme. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-plan-for-your-los-next-birthday-party#post-2633497 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 19:00:00 +0000 travellingbee 2633497@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My littlest guy turns one in January and I'm guessing we'll have a party. I'd like to do a Where the Wild Things Are theme. Not sure how big it will be. We'll probably do it at our house. </p> <p>Who's birthday is next in your house and what's the plan? </p>
