DD1's 4th birthday party is in a little over a month and I am in FULL planning mode! 
Invites went into school friend school mailboxes this morning and the rest were dropped in USPS mailbox!
Got some plates and will be hitting up Target tomorrow for more supplies. Ordering favors this week.
Are you planning a party?

Considering I'm due the week after DD's 5th and DS's 2nd I'm thinking I should think about some plans. Obviously nothing at the house. Just don't know if we will have the money to rent out some place fun.

In theory, yes, but I have done 0. The party will be May 21.

Me! It will be pretty low key though. My sons first bday is April 2 and we are having a little party with friends. Theme is balloons. We're having a ball pit, a ton of balloons, simple foods and cake!

Me! Planning LO's 5th birthday party. I have less than a month to get everything ready. Plus we're working on house projects. Eeks!

Me! Starting to think about DS's 2nd birthday. Was looking at renting an outdoor space at the park, but just leaning toward a party at our house and taking the kids to the toddler playground across the street after cake. Then we have more flexibility with weather and time.
DS is obsessed with Elmo, Cookie Monster, and airplanes. Leaning toward an airplane theme... I want to hold off on character stuff as long as I can.

Yes for LOs 4th birthday next month. We booked venue and date. Sending email invites hopefully tonight. It's a space-themed dance party. Her dance teacher is going to teach the kids a little routine and they will make a prop that goes with the dance.
The dance will be part of their astronaut training. I don't have to worry about plates and things because they take care of that. Cake and cupcakes will be served and we'll have some snacks but no meal.

Not on my radar yet, but driving home last night E informed me that he was going to have cupcakes, chocolate chip and oatmeal raisin cookies and "hearts" at his birthday party. I think the "hearts" are Little Debbie heart-shaped cakes? I think they had them as a special Valentine's Day treat at school....

@T.H.O.U.: I actually don't think we'll be spending much more than a at home party. Simply because we're going very simple with food and no alcohol! LOL
@yellowbird: I love love party planning. I seriously would do that if I could make decent money doing it. 
Doing my best to keep it simple since we have no set up time.
@Mamag511: the first one is always so fun!!!!
@mrsjazz: howwww are our babies turning 4?? What a fun party theme! M is animal obsessed so a zoo party is perfect for her.
@lovehoneybee: lol M requested a chocolate cake with bananas IN it and strawberries and banana all over the top, with sprinkles. And blue cupcakes for everyone else! LOL I told her I think I can handle that.

I'm supposed to be. DD2's first birthday is exactly a month from today. I know what we're doing, I just haven't done any of it yet. Lol

We had DD's birthday party on Sat! But her bday falls on Easter this year, so we're hosting a lunch at our house to celebrate Easter + her bday. I already ordered food, just need to pick up balloons, flowers and the food!
