No Party for Owen

In just a couple of weeks, Owen will be 1.
I didn't send out invitations, I didn't create a birthday party Pinterest board, and I didn't choose a theme. Because we aren't having a party.
But...we are having a small family lunch at home where hotdogs and cake will be served. A homemade funfetti cake...with white icing and sprinkles. Maybe a candle for photo purposes; I don't expect the kid to blow it out. We will sing happy birthday. My parents and sister are coming in town, otherwise we wouldn't even be having the lunch. His birthday is on a Tuesday and the lunch is on the Sunday before.
I've said it once and I'll say it again. I am not a party pooper. But, I don't see the point in having a party and spending money on this for Owen. Please don't get your party planning panties in a wad. I will probably attend whatever party we get invited to (unless it's at that dreadful acid trip mouse themed pizza joint).

Guess what, we might not even have one for his 2nd birthday. Gasp! Somebody call CPS.

Ok ok ok. I'm very excited for him to be 1. I just don't need to throw a party to prove it.
