Happy birthday my baby boy!

I cannot believe you're 4 years old today.

Wow.

I remember when you were first born, you have always been a pistol, a challenge.
But that only makes the memories greater.
How can I forget going 11 days overdue because you were too stubborn to come out?
You waited until 2 hrs before the induction!
How can I ever forget your crying for 6 months straight & the Dr's telling me it was colic?
But I knew better.

You have always been my stubborn boy, but I believe it will only benefit you one day.
You will be persistent, strong, & confident. You are one of a kind.

1st birthday

I miss you bein so little. You never have been a cuddly bug, you are too busy exploring, studying, learning & being the independent guy you are.


Wow we look so young here! Christmas '07.









2nd birthday...you can get a jist of his personality here! Hehe!








And from this mornin, his birthday (from my phone because I can't upload from my cam!)

With his brand new Incredibles costume & "Dash" hat. He was so thrilled. Said, "I've been wishin for this for a long time!" So sweet. It takes alot to get him excited about something!

Even though you exasperate your mama, I love you dearly. It's the only thing that keeps me goin every day. I hope you know that, sweetie. Love you so very much & I'm glad you had a happy birthday!

I'm not lame, I promise!

Is lame even a cool word anymore? That makes me feel old even having to ask if something is cool anymore. Like I'm 60 or something.

Oh well, anyway...I promise I'm not lame. I don't know when or how I will be uploading pictures to my blog unless they are done by webcam or mobile because my USB adapter is broke on my camera and now my computer has decided to cramp my style & let the memory card port thingy break! What is UP with that? I'm sad.

A few updates....

The cake balls are absolutely divine! I think it might be my new traditional "holiday" treat. It sure was a pain in the butt to make those, lemme tell you!! Tooooo time consuming, which is why I will only do it for the holidays! I mean, who needs time around the holidays, right?

The cake for Chris' birthday....NOT so great. um, yeah. It tasted yummy, yes. After all, it was only an instant cake mix. Decoration to it was frighteningly pathetic. I've never done such a bad job! Trying to do an Incredibles logo didn't work out in my favor. I didn't know that the cheapy food coloring wouldn't be able to turn my icing red! So it was pink. Then I wasn't able to find a black "gel" to line the edges so I bought a squeeze package of "cookie icing" figuring it would be my easiest bet. Not so much. All the colors blended together, everything goo'ed all over. Yuck, not pretty. No one will be seeing pics of that anytime soon!! However, I did take a picture for memories...

Chris had a great lil 4th birthday party! The day wasn't so good leading UP to the party but whatever. I'm over it now. Maybe I need a couple more Valium & then I'll be completely over it. *shudder* He LOVES the Incredibles (And boy they are hard to find!!) but my husband & I & nana & papa all were able to find him some random Incredibles things. He got the DVD, a book, a personalized shirt, stickers, and a bunch of the figurines from my mom. (We found the figurines for .5 cents at a yard sale! And I mean .5 for like 8 of them! He was psyched!) I found an Incredibles costume just like in the movie for $1 at a yard sale! We are frugal, yes. I also got him 6 more Pixar Cars cars to add to his collection, he has a ton of those things. I think I may just love them more than he does...

I also have a review & giveaway coming up so stay tuned! It's gonna be a good one!
