1. On the plane, I passed Kai a yogurt covered raisin and he told me, "Mom, you're da man!"...this was a heart warming moment!
2. Then, while loading him into the car after our air travel, he warned me, "Don't bump your bean!" as I finagledhim into the car. He's already looking out for me and
3. Today: "Mom, you are pretty and you are my friend". Excellent!! But I did remind him that I am also the boss, at which point things turned sour, Kai: "No I'm the boss!... I am the boss" (what's that rule? don't argue with your toddler...right! I'm still the boss though).
So Kai's birthday party is this weekend. I have been thinking about it for months and of course the moment is almost here and I'm scrambling with nearly every aspect of this event. So I can't give details at this point as it's likely I'll have to make some changes in a hurry, if things go desperately wrong!
Last year, I made a 3D owl cake. It rocked! The year before that, I made The Best Lion Cake Ever!! So what the hell do you do for a third birthday and more importantly how will birthday #10 go down in history on this insane cake trajectory?
CONFESSION: I almost threw in the towel and ordered a cake, or asked someone to ... gasp help me. But nope, I have a 3rd birthday cake idea... but there will also be cupcakes in case the cake goes rogue on me. Wish me luck!
I will likely have millions of pictures and will likely post only the most flattering!
Birthday bonanza ... this Sunday!
