Uh ohh...

You can always make something for yourself to snack on and I am sure maybe the other mothers would appreciate it as well

make an amazing veggie platter, the other moms would appreciate it to. I know thats what im thinking when i go to a party, I hope that htey have something healthy!

Cut up your fave fruit and make or buy a yogurt dip! Same with the veggies....also, chips and salsa are a good snack to get rid of the munchies. You could also make a punch with light cranberry juice, orange juice and sparkling water. Add some frozen strawberries and blueberries to keep it cool!
Hope it helps!

So, here's the thing, she's 1, obviously she won't be eating doritos anyway (or stuff like that), so I say skip the bad stuff all together. There's ways to put out food that is still "snacky" without it being horrible for you. My wife and I put out an awesome spread for our appetizers on thanks giving (we hosted 14 this year) and about 85% of it was pretty good food.

for example:

for cheese and crackers we did cabot farms 75% low fat chedder on a low fat triscut with a slice of turkey pepperoni. Shrimp was another appetizer, Bruschetta with part skim mozzarella and whole wheat French bread was another. Make your own dip using low calorie mayo, dill, onion, parsley, and sea salt and put out a platter of veggies with it like sliced peppers, broccoli, carrots, celery.

All of these items we did at thanksgiving, I am the cook so I usually do this stuff. Combined it took me about 2 hours to make all of it, but I did the dip, cut the veggies, and made the cheese and crackers before hand, so there was actually only about 20 minutes of prep time on the day. Basically just boiling the shrimp for a minute, and plating all the stuff/dips. So it's not like this is a difficult thing to do.

There's no reason not to do this stuff, and unless you tell people you are making things "healthy" they probably won't even notice. My family didn't (and they are NOT generally healthy eaters), until I told them after, at which point they were happy to hear it (they would have complained if I told them before hand, LOL!)

Try baked chips, and low salt that will help, buy a natural salsa or make one yourself(store bought stuff is HIGH in sodium) Everyone will appreciate it, plus it is a good habit to get into, teach your girl right, that veggies and fruit are a good snack not an obligation!!! Then they wont be where we are!!

But enjoy yourself, your first baby only turns 1 once, you will remember this day forever, don't remember as a stressed out mommy, remeber how fun it was.

For me its the CAKE...my biggest weakness
