I was doing great getting bday party things done months ago but I've hit a motivation wall!!! I need to finish sewing favor bags and make invites and plan a menu!! Maybe next week I'll have more motivation!! I hope...

After I typed this I was up until 11 designing an invite! This week I need to buy postcards and print them! The party is shared for my turning two and turning ten year old this year, so it's may 17th. On his bday we'll do a little cake and present at home with just us
Oh and I think I decided on a menu too, I'll have to start working on the scavenger hunt next and the cake ideas.

I still have to do everything, but we aren't having a big party this year. We are moving and it's too much chaos. I love to make and decorate my kids birthday cakes, so I still have to figure all that out. The rest of his birthday will be a day at the zoo and dinner out. The easier the better this year.

We already had our party at a local place, it was so much easier and I didn't have to clean up! I'm sorely tempted to do that next year but I really want to make a cake covered in cookies with the cookie monster on top and I just can't transport something like that. I guess I have a year to figure that out, lol!

Not even planning here, yet. Don't know what to do since we are completely broke. I may ask my parents if they will pay for pizzas and invite a few people over.

DDs party is this Saturday and I'm stressing out! I put favor bags together last night. I have the menu planned and am going Thursday on my lunch break to buy food. I have all the decorations except a few more bags of balloons I need. My stress is mainly getting my house cleaned for 20 + people to come over Saturday at 11am. I work every day until then other than Friday which is her big day so DH and I are taking her to do something fun then out to chuck e cheese for dinner that night. Anyone taken their LO's to chuck e cheese yet? Wondering if she's still too young but it's back to 50's and raining  here this week so our plans had to change.

We've taken DD to Chuck E Cheese a few times in the past year, most recently was last month. She does great some of the time and not so great other times. I think it really depends on you kid and what time of the day it is. My DD is very tempermental when she's tired or hungry. She loves checking out all the blinking lights and the games and the kids running around.
