BIRTHDAY BOY!

Now that I have allowed a full day of settling into the new groove of having a one year old, I can confidently say....WOW! Today we had a one year check up at the doctor for him and NOT ONLY were there 2 shots, but also 2 vials of blood drawn. I have no idea if this is a new process or not but holding down a tired one year old (who just had 2 shots in his leg) while the nurse puts a turniquet on his arm and then PROCEEDS to extract 2 vials of blood is BEYOND more than what I was prepared for! Knowing his loud screams were coming out of pain and NOT TO MENTION, I am the one who took him there in the first place! I felt awful. We got home and he took a 5 hour nap. Woke up refreshed and (literally) ready to rock out by walking!

He is such a HAM!! Tomorrow we have his VERY FIRST birthday party ever!! It is so special and I am so excited to see our family and friends. It means a lot to me that our loved ones are coming to celebrate his birthday with us. We will NEVER get this time back. I mean sure you celebrate 5 year old birthday parties....7...9....then they sort of stop haha but ONE really is special!! I can honestly say I am ready for it to be over! I hate this planning and I am just ready to enjoy the fruits of this labor!!

BUSY NIGHT and DAY soooooo I hope to post some pics soon! Good night....whoever you are! :)
