in honor of these babes getting ready to celebrate their 1ST BIRTHDAYS...

1. Did/do you have any birthday traditions growing up or now?

2. What traditions do you plan to start with your LO?

I can't think of any birthday traditions I had growing up.  It I always remember enjoying my birthday, lol. 

With my niece, my sister started the tradition of taking a photo of her in her wedding dress each birthday. I absolutely loved that idea and purposely didn't box up my dress after cleaning in hopes of getting to steal that tradition! I am so excited to take her picture Sunday morning!

We also bought a wall ruler and each birthday we plan to measure her height! And take her picture of course. Haha!

    We would get a room full of balloons and cake. Nothing really big.

    After this year we'll probably stick to doing a trip for her birthday. Maybe do a measuring thing. 

    @TiffRox81 the wedding dress is such a beautiful tradition!

    Growing up, my mom made sure that our birthday was truly OUR day. So whatever food we wanted the whole day, if there was an activity we wanted to do, whatever cake/pie/ice cream etc. It wasn't ever anything huge, but she just did a good job making us feel special that day. 

    2. What traditions do you plan to start with your LO?

    Big sister already set the tone, so M's out of luck until she can tell me if she hates any of this. Hahahaha!!  Chocolate Chip pancakes for birthday morning breakfast and we'll continue to have a big party for her for a few more years- then once she can chime in (started with big sisters 4th or 5th) we'll just do a big fun experience day. 

    That wedding dress idea gets all the heart eyes.

    growing up I always a party sometimes big, sometimes just a couple friends, but always something. And there was always my requested dinnner for mom to make and ice cream cake. 

    Now, DH and plan a Disney trip for birthdays, the celebrated gets to pick all the meals and all the rides for the trip

    2. What traditions do you plan to start with your LO? 

    I like the person getting to pick whatever they want to eat and do that day. So, we will be keeping that with me trying to figure out what his favorites are until he's old enough to tell me

    Growing up our birthday always meant getting to pick what we wanted for supper. My mom worked 2nd shift so it was just my brother, Dad & I if our birthday was during the week. I remember it being a big deal that we went to Pizza Hut for my birthday and Dad gave me $1 for songs on the juke box. When I got a little older it became wanting my Dad to grill steak (even at 27 nothing beats my dad's grilling in my mind!)

    Oh man! I want to be "that" mom when it comes to birthdays. Your favorite foods, cake, and whatever you'd like to do that day! :) I haven't really thought about it but now I'm excited to think of things we can do.
