So... where to start??
Maya's birthday... ah, yes. I spent the whole day before cleaning my house and being stressed but excited at the same time. Stressed because my parents were coming over, and my parents are clean freaks, and well... I'm not. I'm not a slob or anything but they take clean to a whole new level. Stressed because my Mom and Brian don'yt exactly get a long. My Dad and Brian get along great, but not so with my mother. Excited for the obvious reasons... it was my daughter's birthday, she was so excited, loving the decorations and cake and presents, and everything else that goes along with getting another year older. Ah to be a kid again!! Then again, I'm only 25, not quite at that age where you start to dread birthdays. Anyway... what was I saying.. ah yes. Stressed about making dinner for everyone and having it turn out ok, we had 5 adults a kid and a baby there for dinner. Of course I went with the easiest thing... and Maya's favorite... Angel hair pasta and a traditional red sauce. Yummy.
Well, everything went great! My house was clean, My mom and Brian got along great... they were actually having great conversations and everything. Maya had a blast and loved everything. It was awesome.
Today? My house is a mess! I have so much to do and so little time. Let's see... Tomorrow morning we are going to exchage a gift Maya got from her Aunt because it's broken. While there, Maya has some birthday money to spend. I also need to go food shopping for our house and for Maya's kid party. Tomorrow evening I volunteer at Kid's Closet, a program at this Church I go to that helps take donations and gives free clothes to kid's in the area who can't afford them. It's really cool actually, the parents and kids come in and basically shop for free.
Saturday I have to help clean my neighbors house to get ready for Maya's Kid party, and bake cupcakes the rest of the day. Sunday is Maya's party.
So someone tell me, when the heck is my house going to get clean???? Oh wait... I DO have a husband, don't I?? He doesn't work weekends... heh heh. :)
Well it seems my break is over for now... time to give Kiddo a bath!! Hope everyone has a great weekend :)
