Milestones

Soooooo I have been in the dumps a little bit lately....it has become a reality that having another baby is just going to take alot longer than we ever anticipated. We are right around the corner of trying for a full year......I have my good days and bad days with it, today is a bad day hence why I find the need to maybe get it off my chest to help me enjoy my day better!! I think its getting really hard now because pretty much everyone around me is pregnant and some of them are getting prepared for their little ones to make their grand entrance and I have yet to still not even become pregnant, when we started trying before some got pregnant.




I know I should not dwell on what I don't have and focus on what I do have, but some days that isn't always easy, as some of you may know your own personal heartaches have to be accounted for, just because you do have a great life doesn't mean you can't be sad sometimes.



OK ENOUGH of my own personal pity party, time to move on to something SO VERY amazing......Aydan. He is no longer going to be technically a baby, in a short time he is going be the big 2!!! I can't believe how fast time goes, I wish it would chug along rather than steam full speed ahead

From this

to this

Sweet & Stuff .......dun dun dun.....Rough & Tough

ha ha he's still an angel, just such a big boy now

We have been preparing for his Monkey Jungle Birthday set to happen in only just 3 more weeks!! I can't believe it, I am so excited to have everyone over to celebrate the birth of my sweet boy. I am so excited to see his face light up with the new swing set we got him and when he sees all his cousins and little friends that he just loves dearly. Nothing makes my heart flutter more than watch my little man's face light up with joy, it is such an exhilarating feeling.......

We got alot of Ideas from some great minds....here; everything was just so cute!!

So the invitations have been made and sent out yesterday all thanks to my wonderful husband Mike getting them to the post office for me!! He's just so sweet to do his part. My cupcake stand came in yesterday...big enough to hold 48 cupcakes. We will be aiming for those delightful Betty Crocker jungle animal cupcakes and two Monkey cakes!!

So for an update of how this turned out .......

So here are the cupcakes all displayed in the jungle glory!! 

This was Aydan's Special Cake just for him.... I actually made him two since I had some much batter!! It was just as fun eating it as it was making it all!!  

My little fluffy red head getting to enjoy it! ..... (I am writing/updating this a year later and its amazing to look back and his baby features and this think how fast time has already gone by)

What do you think? Can I pass for Betty Crocker someday???
