Kara`s 1st birthday party is on Sat. I sent out 30 invites. Although I dont really expect more than 30 people to come. I am not worried about it being overwhelming for Kara. We go to the park once a week with a large group of friends so adding cake isnt any different. Just remember you have to cook for all those people! haha Or do what i did and when people ask what they can do to help take them up on their offer. My sister is making the cupcakes, my mom is doing the food, my inlaws are bringing the chairs... I just need to get drinks. :)

Thank you ladies, reason why I ask is with JUST close family we are looking around 64 people. We both have big family`s. I know for sure alcohol will be there, but it`s not going to be a drunken party were people are carried out, but more of a family get together. Seaming it will be the end of August I`m thinking of having water actives for the older kids, but I`m still not sure. I want my daughter to have fun, but she`ll still be so little. Thanks again.

It seems like all 1 year old parties I`ve been to recently have had alcohol and they have all been so much fun. It`s not there for people to get hammered but an ice cold beer or margarita is always yummy. Unfortunately, we are having our little girls party at a lagoon where you aren`t allowed alcohol... we are thinking of making `punch` for the adults.

ok i have to comment even though we already talked about it! lol we are having over 60 and half is kids and half is adults, we will be serving alcohol at this party. just because there is alcohol being served doesn`t mean that it isn`t for my child it just means we are trying to make it entertaining for the adults as well. i dont want to come off rude, but i think that is kind of being close minded because in reality how many 1 year olds can you invite to a birthday party and all of them have fun? this is not directed at you sumer just a previous comment. i m blowing my daughters first birthday out of the water. it is her first birthday it`s a big milestone, but it will also be her baptism hence why it is going to be so big, but still. i m proud to admit that alot of the people coming WILL be adults and we WILL be serving alcohol. i think whatever the parent feels comfortable with the parent should do. it`s not on us to judge on what others do or how others throw parties.

We`ve never had less than 20 at their parties. However at Sarah`s 1st there will be a goo gob (I know, country word! lol) My hubby`s family is quite large. (he is 1 of 7 and one of his brothers has 11 kids most are my kids age) there may be 70 people or more coming. (all closely related) :)

It`s just hard to say. I had about 20-30 (it wasn`t bad since it was outside). You just don`t want to overwhelm them with too many people. Just family and maybe some friends that has young babies.

  1. Is SaraKelly still on here? I know she was a mod but I didn`t see her post in the previous Who Is A Mod poll...
  2. ANGRY!!!! My jenakers account is missing my ENTIRE journal from my high risk pregnancy and my letthisonestick account for my 7 month old is completely gone along with my journal. I AM SICK OVER IT!
  3. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  4. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  5. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  6. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  7. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  8. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  9. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  10. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
