Within my circle of friends it's become a kinda statement who can throw the biggest party.
We are skint! And I just wNt to invite family round, i mean surely these parties are for the adults not the baby who won't remember?! I realize nice photos etc will be nice for her to look back on. Friends are horrified that im not going to throw one and that I'm not organizing it all already, it's the endof October!
Here is where it gets a bit complicated. We have decided to throw a halloween party for our kids and inviting all there friends over and we have loads of stuff from last year and I am able to make decorations my mum will cater it, with Halloween type foods. Dp thinks we should do a first birthday party over a Halloween party I do see his point I suggested a joint party for both but he thinks that wouldn't be fair
Would it be unreasonable to just have a small family party for dd2 1st birthday and then have a halloween party the following weekend? Should I just be be having one of these extravagant 1st birthday parties?!
