Birthday Mania at my House

I did not plan for my three children very well. They all have their birthdays within 2 weeks of each other. My 1 year old's b-day and May 20th, my 9 year old's is June 4th, and my 6 year old's is June 5th. Needless to say "Birthday Mania" is just ending at my house. We had a small family party for the baby. My 9 year old didn't get a party this year (It is just too darn hard to do 2 birthdays back to back every year, so they only get a party every other year). Since he didn't get a party, we still had to do something fun to celebrate. We ended up inviting cousins and going to a bounce place called Jumping Jacks and having a sleepover.
My daughter is the one who had the full-blown B-Day Party. We planned for a water party, but the weather cancelled it out. Instead we had all her friends wear their PJs and bring a pillow and we did a pretend slumber party. The girls were all actually very good, and we had a blast playing games, dressing up in silly outfits, having a dance party, painting fingernails, and unfortunately for the girl's parents, painting our faces with pink frosting from the cupcakes (that dye they put in bakery frosting is pretty much permanent). I did not give them permission for that last part, but expect the unexpected when it comes to 6 year olds. Tomorrow, Sunday, we are having all the family over for a big BBQ to wrap it all up. Then (*sigh*) we are all done for one more year. Once birthday season is over my summer really begins. Whew!
