Yes, after a three-month reprieve...I'm sorry to say it's time for me to jump back into birthday party planning once again. Z turns one on October 4 and we're having a party for her on October 3. After the last experience I had (you can read about my trials and tribulations here, here, and here) you probably won't be surprised to know that I decided to purchase a cake rather than bake it myself. As far as I'm concerned, every penny I spend on a custom cake is a penny towards keeping myself from having a nervous breakdown on the day of the party.
Because the party is for Z....I'm having a tough time figuring out what the hell to do. Obviously she won't give a crap whether or not there are games or entertainment or even gifts as she'll more or less be largely oblivious to the entire event aside from the moment she has her first slice of cake. But there will be other kids there, including Z's older sister. So I feel obliged to do something to keep the older tots from rioting when they show up and realize there isn't a damn thing to do. However I do NOT want to spend oodles of extra cash.
The weather should be nice enough (please, please, please) so most of the party can take place outside. I guess I could do a pinata again...and some sort of craft project...and, oh hell I don't know. I need help. Does anyone have any suggestions? As with all brainstorming sessions...nothing is too lame.
