birthday party

so today is baileys birthday party. he is having 4 boys over to spend the night- so that brings the total to 5 young boys, 1 cranky 10 month old, 1 tired, exhausted mom, and 1 Chad. right now i am in the middle of making his cakes. when i asked him if he want yellow, white, or chocolate he of course asked for half yellow and half chocolate. so we compromised that they would be one on top of the other then i asked him what kind of frosting. he said, "orange". i knew where this was going...yes, he wants me to make it look like a basketball.

two years ago for his birthday i attempted to make his cake look like a football. i have yet to live that down because it came out a disaster. i have faith that the basketball will turn out much better. we will see. i am going to take pictures as i make it so i can post them later.

wish me luck!

okay, okay

i am promise i will keep up better. from now on, this blog won't only be about carter but will also be about basically everything i feel like writing about! recipes, pictures, television, sports, etc. so hopefully that will force me to update a little more often.

with carter being at the point in his life where he is- let's face it- milestones don't happen everyday and our days sort of blend together because they are so scheduled. so adding more info and glimpses into my life might make me look a little less pathetic. in the mean time, here is my little moo cow on halloween! i will update more later! probably with a recipe!
