Joey's birthday is July 13 and I have non lie what we'll do.... H and I agreed no big party, with everything g going on I can't even think about entertaining people. We originally thought of a housewarming/birthday/meet Emmeline party and do a BBQ. But now I think it will be super low key with just us probably. We'll probably end up doing something with each side of our family, but haven't worked anything out yet.
I think we're going to get her a tot mower, because she fricken loves to watch daddy mow, and always wants to help. I think we might also get a small table and chair set for her.
If you ask her what she wants she says "my haircut!". We talked up getting her haircut on her birthday (since she's never had one) and now she thinks its a gift or something. Whatever, if it makes her happy!

We are doing a birthday party at a local farm that does hay rides and lets you pet the animals they have around. It was less expensive than the park pavilions around here and my house is tiny so it was a win win. We used to always host a summer gtg with friends and family so this is just an extension of it. Hopefully it's nice out and people show up. . I have fun planning up until the day of then I get all panicky and weird. But my mom is In town to help so that is nice. We are doing a time flies theme with butterflies and kites. Bonus for the Mpls girls if they can make it, they get to meet my passive aggressive MIL. Heh heh. Of course she will be on her best behavior.
Emma's birthday is July 2nd, but we are having her party next Saturday, the 27th. She asked for a 'purple princess chocolate chip cookie' party. So we are having a princess party with a castle cake and chocolate chip cookies. It's mostly family and a few friends. I have a huge family though, so it will be a lot of people. We are doing it at our house. Hopefully it doesn't rain! The only plan for entertainment is the outdoor playset, sandbox and water table. We are getting her a train set and a Sophia the First dress up dress. I've done nothing except order the cake, so I need to work up a plan!
Mirabelle has asked for a Minnie Mouse party since December. So we are just having family over on July 5th her birthday. Not sure if we are serving food or just dessert. We will have a gluten free dairy free Minnie Mouse cake. Mira wants cupcakes too so we might do that too.
For her presents we are getting a kiddie pool and a basketball hoop meant for kids.
