Apparently I Am Dead Inside

This cake made me laugh and laugh until tears were rolling down my face. W needed to have it explained to him and this made me laugh even more.

The Day With the Birthday Party

Today is Annika's birthday party at a bounce house. I am of two minds on these types of birthday parties. They are all the same and to some degree run together. But they are also easy on mom - not to be discounted. We had S's 2nd birthday party at a bounce house place and to be honest, I hated it. Her last birthday party was in the backyard and was 500x better. It was a lot more work for me though and 16 kids plus parents in the backyard was a little stressful. But there was a racecar cake. I am all about the cake.

It is 100 degrees outside and my kid wants to wear pants to the birthday party. Did I mention she hates having her legs exposed? She wears jeans under dresses (actually looks cute) and won't wear her school uniform culottes. She thinks capris are hideous pranks.
