Party fail

Last year on my dd's birthday party I found out our ET the next day was cancelled because all our embryos had died.  I then had to put on a happy face while entertaining the guests.

This year we finally have our baby here in our arms, but because her birth is close to dd's birthday I pushed out her party a couple of weeks.  So because Easter is early this year that meant having the party today - St Patrick day.  We spent over a hundred dollars on food and party supplies and sent out 7 invitees to family and friends.  Dh's cousin and aunt/uncle refused because it is St Patrick day and a parade was more important.  His brother's wife had a test today so his brother claimed he could not bring their 2 kids by himself.  My one friend wanted to come, but then cancelled this morning because her husband was being released from the hospital today and he didn't want to wait a couple extra hours so she and the kids could come to the party.  My other friend was suppose to come with her son, but was said she was going to be late.  Well guess she must have changed her mind because she wasn't only late, but never came period.  Not to mention this friend owes me her little tyke playset that I brought off of her last June.  The only 2 people who did show up were dh's parents, and even that almost didn't happen thanks to a stupid mathron happening today and the city closed down all the main streets.  I must say I really hate St Patrick day now.

To make matters worse is MIL confirmed the baby does have dh's messed up nose.  When she was born I thought her nose looked funny, but MIL reassured me it was ok and I  also read that newborn noses can look flattened.  Well now she tells me she can see it in the pictures we just did.  This confirms dh's nose problem wasn't just a fluke, but is a genetic condition and now the baby is going to face multiple surgeries to likelyt correct the defect, not to mention it can likely be passed on to future generations.  This along with the PDA pretty much confirms to me that she has the same chromosome 6 deletion.  We will find out for sure next month.  I guess we got lucky with dd1 that even though she too has the deletion she didn't have to face all these physical problems.
