Hooray, it is your baby's first birthday! Your baby has marked off some major milestones in this first year — her first smile, her first tooth, and maybe even her first step. And now it is time for her first birthday party! You've earned this party too with 365 days (and nights) of sleep deprivation, diaper changes, and round-the-clock feedings. So go ahead and get ready to celebrate! This chapter will show you how to make your baby's first birthday party fun, memorable, and gentle on the planet.
