Has anyone else’s baby started smiling super big?!🥰 He belly laughed for the first time a couple weeks ago but still can’t do it regularly so every time it happens I cry 🥹😂

My nanna who is going to be 90, didn’t get my baby a 1st birthday card (she said at the time, if I buy him one do you want to accept it) all because I wouldn’t invite one of my violent cousins to his 1st birthday party

I’ve not spoke to her for 10 months now - it’s coming to her 90th birthday next week. Would you get a card? My little boy still sees her with my dad, he takes him weekly. I just don’t as she was mean to me

Birthday invitation help

1st birthdays are coming up and I think I've decided to do Winnie the Pooh for my twin girls. I've been kinda looking around for a clever tagline for the invitations but my creativity is EMPTY. The two I've come across are the two in the poll BUT please let me know if you have another idea!

Darn I feel bad I didn’t write to my friend to say Happy Birthday abt her daughter and she’s been posting. Is it late to say Happy birthday or it’ll seem weird?

Been busy all day with my baby I did like her posts but didn’t say Happy birthday. She just sent me a funny meme. It’s 9 pm.

Half baked alternatives 👀

I love a cute sentimental way to document getting halfway through your pregnancy. I wanted to try and do some thing different than the typical half baked. The only other idea I saw was halfway to popping with bubblegum or popcorn, which I thought was cute, but I’m wondering if anybody else has seen or done Any other...
