My dd's is in March and I think I will be having it a month late so it will be nicer weather. We will be having it at our house though.

I think we are going to do the same. We just had his christening at a restaurant and although it was great for a christening, I don't want that type of atmosphere for a bday party (personal preference), esp. since there will be alot of 1-2 year olds attending. We also tossed around the idea of a fire house, but decided we will just have it at our house and have less people. We will also have a clown or character coming.

Re: moms with winter kids..

DD first b-day will be nothing more than family at home (we can't afford anything more than that). I am planning a HUGE birthday bash for her 5th birthday b/c it is the same day her daddy turns 50. I am planning a surprise party for DH under the guise of her 5th birthday. I have a double sided invitation planned in my head (one side for her, one side for him). I already started saving up for it! Chat Icon

DS was Jan 3rd and we had the party a week or 2 later. 2 small parties actually in our apt. It was low key.

DD's b-day is February 10 and we had a Valentine themed party in a restaurant. Favors and centerpieces were from the dollar section of Target and the balloons were from party city. Very low key. Not thousands of dollars.

Re: moms with winter kids..

My oldest son is a December baby and when he was little I use to have the parties at a place but it does get very costly so when I stopped I just keep it simple a couple of friends and his cousins, aunt, and grandma and we do it at our house.

Same here. I figure the first few birthday parties are really more for us than for him anyway. Chat Icon

Are you thinking along the lines of a family party or a kids party?

DSs birthday is early December, and we will have a small party at home, mostly family and our friends, maybe a couple children he has met. I figure in a couple years he'll want kids at his party and it will be different, and maybe that's when I'll splurge on the performers. He won't know the difference now.

It works for us actually since we usually have a get together for friends around then, after Thanksgiving and before Christmas really kicks in and people are busy.

Re: moms with winter kids..

Jake is also a December baby and so is my DH I really don't now what I am going to do most likely something small at home. I hate the fact that my DS is so close to all of the Holiday's. I personally think that his 1st Birthday will be small and quite at home and as special as can be.

I would love to hear from some December mommies and how there babies are doing.
