DS turns 4 in late fall. We haven't had a big birthday party since his first birthday, so we'll probably throw a party at the local trampoline park with his friends!
Not sure what "theme" if any I'll use for decor/etc. just yet 
Thought if it were up to DS, I'm sure it would be MMC or Paw Patrol! 
DS2 will probably have a colors themed big first birthday party at the park in the summer!

T's 2nd birthday is Sunday and he's having a Toy Story party since his life is Toy Story everything. Lol
I went all out for his first but I kept this party pretty simple.

DD1 is turning 4 at the end of April and we haven't had a big party since her 1st either. She is getting her first friends party at the zoo. She LOVES animals so this is perfect. The "theme" will of course be zoo animals! Blues, red/oranges and polka dots!
DD2 turns TWO at the end of August and she is currently obsessed with Llama Llama. If the obsession continues I'm thinking a small brunch Llama Llama red pajama party for immediate family and a few friends!

@regberadaisy: The zoo idea sounds so fun! T is a winter baby so we're always stuck inside. Ugh
He loves Llama Llama too. That's such a cute idea!

@artsyfartsy: I think it'll be easier when he's older! You can do ice skating parties. Or rent the pool at a local community center/YMCA/town building. A beach themed pool party in the winter will be SO fun!

No theme this year. Having it at her gymnastics place and we don't get a lot of time to decorate. So I just am doing colors. The favors are gymnastics themed. Then using the same banner and balloons on Sunday at home for the family and will just add some streamers. Scaling it way back this year.

DD2 will likely have a pancakes and pajamas first birthday party. (In April! It's coming up quickly!) DD1 will be 3 and I have no idea.

He is turning two in 2.5 weeks.

LO is turning 5 in April. He has been set on a dinosaur party since summer.

We didn't do a big theme for the second bday, but he loves Richard Scarry books so we had the monkey driving his banana car on his cake.

DD2 is turning 1 next month ( 
) and her theme is flamingos.
DD1 isn't until fall and she will get to pick, so I'm sure it will be princesses or some Disney show related mess. I think we are going to have it at her gymnastics gym so maybe I can do a cute gymnast theme.

We just had DD's second party and we did a Puppy Paw-ty. She's obsessed with dogs and says hi to every single one she sees, so it was a perfect theme.

Sunshine and pinwheels! Her name is Liliana Rae, so the invites will say "Our Lil Rae of sunshine is turning one!" Which is super cheesy.

When DS turns 1 in Nov his will be rocket themed. I promised DH that we could do that when we found out it was a boy since that was DH's first birthday theme. Lol
DD will be 3 in August and I'm waiting until close to her birthday to see if she has an opinion. If not we will just do it around her interests at the time, which change every 5 minutes so who knows! We will be having it at this inflatable gym that has a ton of those bounce house/slide/obstacle course things.

Omg, I'm going nuts with her birthday. Last year my bday plans got hijacked, so now I'm in overdrive. I'll be busy with school, so right now, it's more Pinterest surfing and gathering material for decor, but the rough theme will be ice cream.
Her birthday lands on a Wed., this year, so we'll be celebrating the weekend after. I'm hoping it's not raining, because it has been the last few years!

I highly doubt we'll have a party for DD's 2nd birthday! But we'll definitely have a small celebration at home w/ family. Since it's not till Dec, I'll have to wait and see what she's into then!

DD turns 5 in March and we are doing a Frozen themed ice skating party - she is sooo excited!
GOLD / cantaloupe / 6703 posts
Lo isn't 4 until December, but she already said she wants a candyland party. I am thinking that if I can find the game super cheap, we may give it out as favors, plus there are some fun ways to decorate online.

We did a monstrous at-home party for her 3rd, so I don't know what the plan is for her 4th except for the fact that it WILL NOT be at my house We will probably do some kind of play place.

We'll probably do another family celebration vs big celebration, but if we were to pick a theme, it'd probably be The Good Dinosaur or Paw Patrol. He's into both pretty heavily right now. More dinosaur then Paw Patrol.

His birthday is at the end of next month and he is very insistent on having a Paw Patrol cake. So I will probably be doing a Paw Patrol theme. He will be 4.

DD turns three this summer, so it could change between now and then. But based on her current interests, we've narrowed it down to solar system, magic, or party animal.

The poor girl's 2nd birthday is two weeks after I'm due with DS so we'll probably do a really simple Minnie Mouse themed party. Minnie Mouse (especially the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse version) kind of makes me cringe, but she LOVES her!

Ds is turning one and he is going to have a ballooned themed birthday!!
Dd will turn 4 this year a couple of months after we move. I hope I can throw her a birthday but I don't know if we'll have anyone to invite.

She'll be 1 in April. I'm thinking the party theme will be her favorite thing: cardboard coasters.
hostess / wonderful persimmon / 25556 posts
I have no idea. Last year was Curious George and she is still into that today. Her favorite colors are pink, purple and black, though so maybe we'll do a Baltimore Ravens themed party with some pink sprinkled in. No one who is coming will understand (we live in NC now) but that's okay. lol

DS is turning 1 in June and we are planning a music themed party. He loves trying to make music, so it seemed appropriate.

I have no idea what we'll do for his 4th in June. He's still into the same stuff as last year (construction) and the year before (space)....but I don't want to repeat. Hmmm....

Paw Patrol. Again!!! She invites people to this Paw Patrol birthday party every day, but they have a long wait - it's not till November
I'm not sure for DS, but we will do something.
pomegranate / 3032 posts
she'll be three in September I'm thinking an art party - we may forgo the party and do a long weekend in disney though

Her birthday is a week after I'm due, so we may do something very small a couple of weeks before her birthday. The weather will be better for having it outside. No idea on the theme though.

When LO turned 2 in October it was a Thomas the Train party. We kept it really simple. Her first birthday was huge and "Pinterest-y" (apple of my eye theme) so I didn't feel the need to do that again.
For her 3rd birthday I definitely think she will understand enough to be able to pick. Who knows what she will be into! If she had a birthday party tomorrow it would probably be Cinderella-Sofia-Elmo themed.
We will pick a kid-friendly, INDOOR location. We got rained out twice this year so we're definitely not doing that again. The bouncy places are a bit much - we know someone who just had a party at a drop-in daycare type place and that was perfect.

DD1 is 4 in June and we're having a fairy party! We have a great garden/backyard and I have really taken to actual gardening with the girls, so I'm picturing my girls and some friends all wearing fairy wings and dresses, running amongst our flowers with wands and ribbons, sitting on makeshift toadstools set out for the party, looking in the hedges for 'real' fairies, whilst our organza covered patio tables are filled with fairy type foods (dainty sandwiches, petit fours, cupcakes etc) on three tiered trays, and glasses of pink punch are served with pink and white striped straws.....
Yeah, I haven't put any thought into this, can you tell?! Her birthday is the day before my due date though so my grand ideas may have to be scaled down some...
DD2's second birthday was just last week and we just did a hearts theme, nothing too crazy as it was just a few family members over!

Robots, DS's choice for his third birthday! We had a pumpkin theme the year before (October baby).
On a related note, DS2 will have his birthday just 3.5 weeks after DS1. Should I have a party for each one every year??

Unfortunately, I don't think there's any escaping Paw Patrol for us. My daughter is obsessed and already "planning" her 4th birthday in May.

DD is having a rainbow themed 5th bday party.
Not sure about DS. His bday isn't until Dec.
