[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not too much you can do about it, so no point hitting the roof.
I probably wouldn't go, but if you think it would be important to your son, I'd suck it up and go.
How is it a party if no one was invited? Just do your own thing/party. Looks like joint birthdays won't be happening, no big deal.[/quote]

I would say that you send out invitations today to a party with all her friends.

If he is like most dads, he has no idea who most of her friends are and how to get in contact with them.  You are also most likely friends or friendly with her friends' moms.

As a mom, I would be very uncomfortable getting invited to a party by the girlfriend of my still married friend's husband.

Let him host a party for their families.

Host a party for her friends and invite your parents to help. Let your husband know that the friend party will be on X date.

Knowing how many parties that the dads of my three kids have been involved in planning (a big ZERO and I have three kids with lots of friends) this is 100% a passive aggressive dig by the girlfriend.

Rise above, decline that invite, and quickly (today) organize her real birthday party with her friends.  That is the party she will care about, not a big bash with all those strangers from her (still married) dad's girlfiend's family.[/quote]
