DS had a 'party' when he turned 1 ie, the grandparents, aunties, uncles, cousins and some friends over for tea and cakes etc. It was nice but TBH a real squeeze in our tiny house and it also took lots of preparation etc. His 2nd birthday is in a few weeks time and I'm not sure what to do. I'd like to just go out with us on his birthday (me, DH, DS1 & DS2) and not have a 'party' at the weekend (his birthday is a Wednesday) but I'm worried others will expect a party again or at least all want to see him at some point on his birthday or that weekend. And I can't be doing with loads of constant entertaining esp with a 3 month old here now!
He is still too young to really know about parties so do you think it's fine to just have a family day out on his birthday and that's it? Or AIBU to not have a party again and invite everyone?
