Success after IF

Birthday Party Day! (and rsvp venting)

Today is Quinn's 4th birthday.  I have no idea how my little baby girl got to be four so quickly.  Ladies, they grow up way too fast!

Now, onto my vent.  We are having a Hello Kitty party at a local business.  The RSVP date was Tuesday so that I would know and be able to tell the business how many kids would be there.  They do a craft and games so they like to know the numbers and I have to pay for each kid so yea, it would be nice for me to know as well.  Friends of my husband didn't RSVP so I went ahead and didn't count their child in the total and didn't take the parents into account when deciding how much food to buy.  This morning they text my husband to say not only are they coming but hey, can they bring the wife's sister.  What?  I don't know the sister, she doesn't know our kids and I that's three more adults that I didn't plan on having.  Ugh.

I guess it shouldn't surprise me given that for Sully's birthday they texted the morning of the party to ask if the wife's dad could tag along.  I just find that soooo very strange.

Kelly, Mom to Christopher Shannon 9.27.06, Catherine Quinn 2.24.09, Trey Barton lost on 12.28.09, Therese Barton lost on 6.10.10, Joseph Sullivan 7.23.11, and our latest, Victoria Maren 11.15.12

Secondary infertility success with IVF, then two losses, one at 14 weeks and one at 10 weeks, then success with IUI and then just pure, crazy luck.  Expecting our fifth in May as the result of a FET.

  • Rude! When we realized my MIL would be here the same day as our friend's dd's b-day, we called a week ahead of time and asked if it was alright if she came but that we would be eating dinner before hand so they didn't have to pay for her dinner. Some people just don't think!

  • I will never understand why people think it is okay to show up at events like that without RSVPing. And then to bring a friend on top of that? Rude. Happy birthday, Quinn! I hope you have a great party!

  • So rude! I don't get why some ignore RSVP ettiquette.

  • The party went really well.  The friends in question showed up an hour late and after all this didn't bring the sister.

    The lady who owns the place we had the party at was telling me how at a party she had yesterday a mom showed up with her invited child along with three other, uninvited siblings!  Wow, that takes some nerve too.
