The party took on a Mexican theme – fitting for a baby people lovingly call Pancho Burrito. Colorful banderitas brightened up the place and maracas, cacti, and sombreros were used as decor.

There was also a play area and an arts and crafts section to keep the kid guests busy.

After the party, Saab posted a photo of her and Jim “patting each other on the back for throwing a successful first kiddie party.”

“My definition of success: ‘I’m just happy nobody fell in the pool,’” Saab said.
