daycare party delema

DD was invited to a party of a little boy earlier this week at a jump place next month.  Today she got an invitation for a birthday for a little girl at the same place, on the same day, 1/2 hour later.  I feel really awkward being put in this situation.  I'm leaning towards going to the boy's party.  I've only met his mom once, but she was very nice.  I see the girl's mom often but she only acknowledges me if I say hello to her.  I also feel like the mom of the girl knows we've all been invited to a party on that day, so why not contact the boy's parents to see if the parties can be combined or see if they can do the party on a different day, but I also feel bad the little girl may not have her school friends at her party.  Although, for all I know she has a lot of family friends and school friends were just kind of if they want to come great, if not no sweat.  WWYD?

    I'd talk to the girls mom and explain - maybe she didn't realize about the other party.

    This. Regardless of the other mom's response, stick with your plans to go to the little boy's party. It was the first party you committed to attending.

    I would tell the girls mom that you'll already be there for another party and that you'll "stop by". The party places I've been to - all the kids will be in the same play area. The party rooms will be separate, but you can pop in and perhaps dropp off a gift and say "hi".

    I'd say that you have already committed to another party half hour earlier at the same venue. I would Not feel obligated to bring a gift.
    P.s. So weird. Are they in the same class?

    THat is pretty odd, I would wonder if the other girl was not invited to the boy's party. Are you sure they invited the whole class?

    I am going to guess the girls mom already booked the date and time and put her deposit down before she got the invite to the boys party. If I were her I would have gone ahead with my invites too. People will just have to pick which party to go to. No big deal.
