Mother of the year right here. Claire had her FIRST birthday party....it just happened to come when she was turning 5. I am not huge into birthday parties, therefore we do them every other year. The "off years" we just celebrate with our little family. When Claire was three, I think she had two friends (she still doesn't have many friends) so we held off on doing a party. This year was the year for her first birthday party. She got to decide her theme and what do to and who to invite. She loved it! She wanted a cheetah cake (no surprise!), but I wasn't feeling up to trying to make that, so we went with jungle animals instead. A couple of months ago she went to her cousin Charlie's birthday party at Jungle Jim's, and had a lot of fun so we decided to have hers there too! It was nice because it included pizza, plates & decorations, balloons, tokens, and drinks. They had it all set up for us when we got there, which was really nice. Anton took the afternoon off work, so he came to help get everything ready and helped with all the kiddos at the party. He was a life saver! It turned out to be a really fun party, and Claire had a great time!! When we were walking out the door she said to me "Mom, you're the BEST Mom"!! Cute Claire...so happy she had a great "first" birthday party!!
