First birthday invites

in January 2014 Moms
I know it is early, but I want to get a jump start on her party due to the holidays. Our families live out of state, so I'm wondering who you are inviting to your LO's birthday if you don't have a ton of family close by. My parents might come in town for it. We have some friends including a girl who babysits for her. My guess is no one else really cares! Haha, it's a big deal to us but probably not to people that don't know us that well (we just moved here in July). Maybe a couple of friends from daycare?

I don't think it has to be a big bash just wondering what others are thinking of doing.

TIA!

    We live far away from family and didn't make any close friends. Most of our friends here don't have kids either.

    In other words, we aren't having a party. We'll do something special with the 3 of us.

    We are inviting the family in the area and our close friends as Friends with kids.

    Probably just close family- DD's grandparents, aunts/uncles, cousins, plus her godparents. DH has a big family so that group alone will be 20 people.

    I don't know for sure yet what we'll do. We live about an hour from H's mom and his step dad's family (step dad has been in the picture since H was 6 so we're very close with the extended family as well). I THINK we'll go to their city for the day and have a birthday party with family. We'll also invite FIL and that side of the family, and my family, but they live quite far away so it's unlikely they'll make it although I know they'll want to. 

    The other option is to have a birthday party with Norah's little baby friends and my new mom friends (we moved to a new city this summer so they're relatively new friends) but I think I'd rather be with family. We might do both.

    Either way we do it, her birthday will be a small, casual event. I'll do some decorations (just some easy DIY stuff) and make a cake, but otherwise not much more! I'll go all out when she's old enough to understand :)

    Thanks ladies, I'm thinking we'll just do something small here with a smash cake, my parents and a few friends.
