Birthday traditions

I’m gonna start the stuffed animals attached to balloons with hats outside bedroom door.

My friend does a large cupcake, muffin or donut with a candle the morning of birthdays every year I thought that was cute

We have tried to do something with balloons each birthday for the past couple. For my son, he loves stuffed animals, so last year, I tied a balloon to the cat he loves like a collar and put it in front of his bedroom door. For my stepson, we've mostly done balloon avalanches.

I also really love to decorate the house with photos of them for their birthday party from the last year. It's bittersweet looking at how much they've grown each time. 😊 I usually use streamers, clothespins, and painter's tape to put them up.
