3!!!

But I'm planning one nevertheless. My baby boy is turning 3! How did he get this old? How did I get this old? It's funny. You have a baby, and you hear a few standard comments. One of those comments is always, "They grow so fast." You brush it off, another cliche saying. But it's true, if you take no other statement, no other advice to heart, take this one. Enjoy your children, hug them and squeeze them. There is no such thing as spoiling a baby, hold them, hold them all day and all night, and for as long as you can before you can't anymore.

So off my soapbox. Anyway, Yoda will be three in a few weeks. I've never thrown him a birthday party. We've never known anyone to invite really. But this year were going to try. I get nervous throwing these sort of things. They don't always turn out great, and I get anxiety over them. So funny, again I'm just like my mom. Tangent...

Anyway, were going to rent out the pool and have people from the neighborhood, and from DH's work come out. I hope a lot of people show up, but I guess a small intimate crowd would be nice too. I just want for Malachi to have fun. I asked him if he wanted the cool car's cake, but he didn't. He said he wanted cupcakes, but he didn't mean for the party, he meant he wanted them right then.

So I hope the party is nice. I guess I should write down some things that he's doing right now so that I don't forget.

He pronounce his V's. He uses a Z or s sound instead of V. So it's, I NESSER do that. It's so funny. I love his little baby talk words. DH corrects his pronunciation, but I don't. I like to hear those baby words, he doesn't have many left anymore.

He's very into being independent. Yet, he still bawls when I leave the room. I take showers daily(well almost daily, hee hee) to the sound of him crying because I have left the room. Even the shortest shower is too long with all that carrying on. It's a funny stage, wanting to try new things, but being scared to be left alone.

He's very sweet with his brother. Yesterday as we were eating lunch, us our Chicken dinosaurs, and Enick his green beans, Yoda say's " He doesn't like those, don't feed them to him." The brotherly love is great, except when E needs to sleep and is awoken by dear big brother. Then I sort of wish we could go back in time to when E was just a blob to be ignored. Before I know it they will be running around together the two of them.

I suppose that's all. I don't suppose this particular post had a point. I'm tired, E is sitting here nursing. He was already asleep for the night, but then decided that sleeping thing was not for him. I'm attempting to put him into a milk coma, but it has yet to work. Yoda is upstairs asleep, with his sunglasses on.

I wear my sunglasses at night, la la.

Okay delirium setting in, until next time.
