No posts lately since I'm trying to plan my first Disney trip. OMFG, why didn't anyone tell me how insane it all is?!! Which park, what day, what to eat, when, with a character or two, WHAT THE HELL? Who thinks this is a good idea...or is it someones sick idea of a fun time for mom...as if I don't have enough to do without all these details.
Yeah, I'm sure it will be fun and all but geesh, this is crazy.
I have to get back at it now..

best mom
How do they know when I am about to lose it on them?!
After having a fit for 20 minutes, Cooper then turned around and told me "you're a really great mom"
Then Sydney said "yeah, you're the best mom I ever had"

Happy Bloody Father's Day
I asked the kids to make Father's Day cards for daddy. Coop immediately chose green paper and started to put a picture of a golf course. He likes to watch the golf channel and look at daddy's gof magazines and design courses. Srsly!! His card was 4 holes he designed and the front says I heart you dad.
Sydney starts out with drawing a picture of Cooper with bloody eyes (I'm not making this up) and when I asked why Coop had bloody eyes, she answered "because he had a meltdown" (duh!! I can't believe I even asked that stupid question, the answer was so obvious, right?!)
Should I be concerned?

does this child make me look old?
My firstborn turns 6 today. Wasn't I JUST pregnant with him?! We are spending the evening at a Mud Hens game with 3 of his friends. MUCH better than the 15 kids running around my yard last week for the 2nd born's party.
I made the cake to look like a baseball, it's actually pretty good, if I do say so myself (and I just did). This is one of those days that I wish I could just stop time. Kids are fun and funny, not much on the calendar except to make the cake and, oh yes, no one getting any older (me included).

still 4
Sydney asked me today "mom, am I still 4?". Apparently the birthday party wasn't a dead give away.
Then: "when I wake up tomorrow, will I be 5?" No, but it will feel like it to me.

baby grows up
My little girl turned 4 today. I only cried a little. I can't believe how fast the last year went. When I told her she wasn't my baby anymore, she said "mom, stop saying that, I'm a big girl, I don't wear diapers anymore". She is just so cute and I did almost lose it when Coop got up this morning and went right to Syd and gave her a hug and kiss and said "Happy birthday Sydney, I love you" (with no prompting from me).
Then there was the party...I don't like little kid parties, I'm just going to put that out there. I don't like giving them or actually going to them. It WAS supposed to be a waterslide/slip n slide/water theme party but wouldn't you know it, it was 60 and cold and rainy. I had to call everyone I knew to give me ideas for alternative party suggestions. Not easy since I had around 14 4 year olds. Yuck! 2hours can be such an eternity, don't you think? Oh, Oh...AND my favors didn't arrive in time. Eric said "I guess $15 doesn't seem like too much to pay for expedited shipping NOW, does it?" I"m sure they'll arrive tomorrow, just in time to be sent right back.
I kind of felt sorry for the Fed Ex guy today when he brought another shipment (we get them daily for Eric's work) and it wasn't the favors...I apologized to him ok?!
The cutest part of the day was when Sydney's friend from preschool, Alex came and she ran right to him and then just held his hand. I didn't have a camera at that moment but I swear it happened.
