 | how many mommies did a big christening party and a big first b-day? My lil girls days will be about 7 months apart and i feel like it may be too much to ask of our friends and families...   |

 | Re: how many mommies did a big christening party and a big first b-day? We did a big Christening and I plan on doing a big first b-day also. Maybe you could just have a big party to celebrate both? |

 | Re: how many mommies did a big christening party and a big first b-day? We did a Christening of about 80 people at a family style Italian Restaurant - for Michael's first bday we had it at a Knights of Columbus in Seaford and hired a DJ and Cookie Monster came to visit.    |

 | Re: how many mommies did a big christening party and a big first b-day? I wouldn't worry about the 7 months.  Most family will enjoy these big events in your child's life.
 I did a christening at 3.5 months - in a small restaurant - immediate family and some close friends - about 40-50 people.  For the 1st birthday, I had it casual - at my house - basically invited most of the same christening people and a few more close friends.

 | Re: how many mommies did a big christening party and a big first b-day? We had a big christening party at an Italian restaurant in East Meadow in September and we are having a dual very large first birthday party for my son and niece in March at a VFW in Seaford. They are 3 weeks apart we thought it would be nice to have a joint party. Message edited 2/9/2006 1:41:55 PM. |

 | Re: how many mommies did a big christening party and a big first b-day? We had small, family-only affairs for both.  With both sides of the family, that was about 30 people (brothers, sisters and their kids, no cousins or anything).  We're not big party people and really enjoyed the small intimate parties we had at our house. |
