For Chase's birthday this year we had a small family party (just us), and then debated whether or not to throw a big "friends" party. Chase has one good friend outside of his daycare friends, and they were going to celebrate his birthday at daycare already. So the thought was, "Do we pay a ton of money to entertain daycare kids and parents we don't even know?" The answer we came up with: No. We invited that one other friend (Nathan) over to play and they had a mini birthday play date, which Chase loved.
Nathan got Chase a super cool superhero dress-up set. It came with three superhero costumes: Spiderman, Iron Man and Wolverine. They had tons of fun playing superheros together! Here is Chase as Wolverine:
And here he is as "Iron Wolf," the newest superhero, bred from an interesting relationship between Iron Man and Wolverine, I guess:
They found some swords and had a ball battling each other:
And then they joined forces and attacked "Daddy Man:"
In the end I'm glad we handled his party the way we did. He had a lot of fun, and it was a lot less stress for us (always a bonus)!

What a fabulous idea:). The costumes were a brainstorm and will be fun to play with for quite a while. Way to go, Mom.
