I had to plan this whole party.With not being able to remember anything then having to remember where I wrote down the things I couldn't remember.Then had to have the energy to get everything paper plates cutlery napkins pizza everything to make homemade jello cake.Make a ball pen for babies to play.Still have to build the rest of her toddle motorcycle ,yeah they make those for 18 month olds lol she's only turning 1 Wrap all her gifts.Making all the pizza and garlic bread and drinks.Then having everyone over and try not to look miserable and smile.Then clean up after the party.But as long as the baby is happy then she is all worth it.

Toddler motorcycle...makes me laugh too

Juliet is so cute on this picture too!

Organising and having a birthday party can be very diificult with a chronic disease. Can you ask a friend to help you in preparations. Have at least one supporter around if you need rest she (or he) will be there to take things over and to explain to others why you are resting.

Hope you have a lovely party!
