Help me decide..

Jazzym12

So I need to decide what to do about my bday and dh bday this year. Normally for my birthday we have about 20 people go out to dinner and for mh bday we usually have a big cookout. Well that has worked in the past but now that E is here I don't know what to do. Mh and I both turn 30 this year so I would like to celebrate but the biggest issue is timing and the expense. My birthday is sept 30th, E's birthday is Oct 12th and dh birthday is oct 29th.  E is having a big party on the 14th for her 1st birthday. So, should we tack on to hers, do ours on a different days or just forget about them? Opinions? Thoughts?

wishful thinkin:

Do not skip out on your and DHs birthday! Can you find a sitter and go out with a group of friends?

Perhaps.. I still haven't left E with anyone for more then an hour.. (and it was my sil) maybe I will be braver by then..oh and the majority of my friends are currently pregnant and will be giving birth between sept and nov

Honestly I would think E's party day should just be about her, but I understand where you're coming from with the time and expenses. I would try to find somebody to watch E if you want to go out or maybe try to have people over for a cookout or something on another day? I know it sucks since they're all so close together!

I completely agree but dh does not.  I don't want anything to take away from her day.
