In short I'm on bedrest & G's birthday is on Sunday. I of course had this week planned to getting my few diy projects done & running around getting food, etc. Now, I can't do any of that.
DH is home this week & is doing great taking care of the kiddos (and feeding all of us while he's fasting.. seriously amazing in my book), but executing crafts & finding their supplies is not his forte.
I have:
- Superhero masks
- Superhero capes from plastic tablecloths
- Background to cover the huge pod in the backyard

- Comic "bam" "pow" "wham" signs for the food table backdrop (along with batman signs)
- Materials & setup for a scavenger hunt
- Picking up food sign prints
- Food prep which includes cutting sandwiches in the shape of a bat.
- Order cake (I'm super sad this will be one of the only years I don't make it)
- Party/food setup
It really isn't a lot, but my only crafty friend here just returned to work & so I'm totally lost at how to delegate & navigate the planning/setting up process to someone else (I'm the one that never asks for help & does everything myself). I love party planning & so cutting things out is just NOT an options for me (I think it would drive me insane). lol
Any tips of ideas of how I can keep on bedrest/taking it easy & get this done? Even if it is an "obvious" suggestion I want it... when someone asks me how they can help I can never answer them b/c my brain says "I'll do it"..... Doing projects in bed still counts as bedrest right?! lol TIA
