scratch that.
Izze no longer wants a Fancy Nancy birthday party. She still loves her and still wants the phone and the dog, but she does not want a Fancy Nancy party.
I'm glad she made up her mind today, because we were going to start ordering/buying things for her party this weekend.
She is lucky enough to MEET. A. WITCH. can you believe it? Izze gets to take a hayride to meet her and listen to her tell stories. She's dying inside with GLEE!!! So now she wants a witch party.
And I'm 100% cool with this. We'll just have a small Halloween party and call it a "witch party" I feel like at 4 years old there's a chance she'll get mad about the Halloween birthday thing, if not 4 years, than 5 or 6. It's coming. So this is probably the last year she'll want to have a Halloween party and dammit we spent $40 on that mini pumpkin bundt pan and we're going to use it as much as we can!!! We'll probably play some Halloween games and have pumpkin cake and ice cream. I'm really trying to force myself not to go overboard. I really need to. She's only 3, it's not a big deal, she doesn't need flying monkeys and a unicorn. That's for 5 year olds. Duh!
This also means I don't have to buy or make a birthday tutu and it still keeps with the tutu each birthday tradition that Jeremy wants to keep. Her costume has a tutu and she'll wear that.
This also means we don't have to buy any decorations because we have them from her first birthday.
Money saved is wonderful. Especially when I have ZERO control when it comes to buying things for Izze. I'm soooo glad we don't have credit cards, I could only imagine the lack of discipline I'd have then. Do you have any idea how tempting it is to apply for those credit cards at The Gap and Target, even if I'll only save $3.00. SO TEMPTING!
So there we have it: a witch party. I think my sisters will be happy that their kids will get more use out of their costumes this year.
Whew. I'm really glad Izze still wants the Fancy Nancy stuff for her birthday, because I already wrapped it and stashed it. Whew! Whew! Whew!
