Answer
There are so many sites that offer sleepover ideas try one of these -- some may be birthday parties but you can still get theme ideas. There are enough here for the next couple of years ...
My own: pick a favorite star and throw a birthday party for him / her
Under the sea (hang fish balloons from ceiling, get a bubble machine, eat goldfish)
Rain forest (hang vines from the wall and tape rain forest animals to stuff)
Desert (eat Mexican food, buy some cactus, put sand on tables)
Winter (eat ice cream, watch snow dogs or something else)
Holidays (pick the closest holiday)
TV shows
Movies
Animals
Chocolate (eat chocolate, get chocolate scented stuff)
Sing and dance (have a dance competition or have Karaoke)
Around the world (have people bring food from different countries)
Spa Night (if u are a girl you could do makeovers and stuff)
Camping (you could make s-mores and sleep in a tent)
Sports (choose your favorite sport (mine is soccer) you could have a soccer ball cake, play that sport, etc

34 weeks pregnant and feeling very insecure and left out! Am I overreacting?
Cassie
Ok I am 34 weeks pregnant and I am not sure if I am just being insecure or what. Lets start out by saying my husband and I have been married for 9 years this October. We got married when I was 18 and he was 22. I recently found out that before he knew I was pregnant he talked to my BFF's hubby and said he thinks that we are going to get a divorce. I don't know if he was the one wantng it or if he thought I was wanting it so im confused there. So up till now, things have been alright. Well, he has been drinking every weekend at least, if not through the week and the other night we were having a bonfire with my parents and was expecting a friend to show up around 11. I laid our 3 yr old down for a nap so he could stay with us for a while cuz he normally goes to bed by 9 every night. So anyway, 1030 rolls around and my husband starts asking our son if he is ready to go in. Of course he is drunk, but he is asking every 5 minutes until about 1050 when I said fine, ill take him in because I got tired of hearing it. Well as soon as I go in, our friend and a coupe of his friends show up. I put our son to bed and decided to walk back out to the pavilion which is 100 yrds from the house. There was 3 guys and 2 girls, all 21-24 yrs old. my hubby is 32. But anyway, I said hi and bye and went back in. Well I found out the next day that there were a total of 6 girls and 4 guys including my husband that ended up out there. Also they were swimming in the pond and all were drinking. I actually had to call him 2 times to tell him to turn the music down and be quiet before the cops were called because it was 130 am. Well when I went out that next morning to see if all was cleaned up, I found a pair of boxer shorts(not the hubbys), 3 pair of socks, and a pink thong just laying on the ground. I kept my cool, but couldn't shake the fact that he kinda pushed me and his kid inside, knowing that when he fell asleep I couldn't come out. Did he know all these girls were coming over?
That brings me to the present issue. Our buddy planned a weekend getaway 2 hours away to do some 4 wheeling and camping and god knows what else. Well, he posted the guest list on FB and there are just as many girls as guys. Of course, I cant go because I will be 37 weeks pregnant and he knows that, but I feel really insecure about him going. I mean there he will be 2 hrs away with a bunch of young people drinking and 4wheeling and sleeping in tents. Not to mention, none of the girls on this list are ugly. Am I wrong to not want him to go? am I being paranoid?
Answer
He is hanging around with young people who are the age he was when he got married. It sounds like he's missing his single days. If he goes with them, he's pretending he's single. It sounds like he's freaking out about having a second kid. Personally, I think he needs to grow up.
It sounds like you have a communication gap. It sounds like he wasn't the one to tell you he was having doubts about staying together. So you need to talk to him. Don't confront him, don't be angry, ask him how is he feeling about having a second child? Ask him how he feels when he wants to go away with a friend for the weekend.
I would tell him that you would like a weekend away, too, and that he should take care of your current child for a weekend. See how he reacts. I'm going to bet that he thinks that childcare is only your responsibility. If you can, I would see if you can have a date night or some special time by yourselves, without your child, maybe just for an overnight, in the next week or so. Try to reconnect with your husband as a wife, not just as the mother of his child.
Can your BFF's husband talk to him? Would he listen? Someone needs to tell him his life is with you and his children, not with a group of single young people.
It sounds like you can't really tell him not to go on this trip. The problem isn't the trip, the problem is that he seems to want to walk away from being married and having responsibilities. Also, if he's two hours away, what happens if you go into labor? Do you have someone who can watch your child while you're in the hospital?
I'm sorry. It sounds like your husband is sorry he grew up.
