Jayden's Birthday

O.K. moving right along to April 10th, Jayden's 2nd birthday, my how time flies. He isn't much of a baby anymore. Jayden loves Blues Clues, Emmie wanted a Blues Clues cake but decided they were way to expensive so creative mommy that she is she downloaded a template online & made her own cake. I think it turned out way better than anything she could have bought already made.

I know I'm really behind with my posts, here it is mid May & I'm just getting around to Joe's Birthday (which was April 8th) I surprised myself and Joe by actually baking a cake. He will be the first to tell you that Domestic Goddess is definitely not a title that describes me ;)I have to admit with the jobs I had & working nights I have gotten really rusty when it comes to preparing a real home cooked meal (now fast food I can do; Carl's Jr, Taco Bell, I could (past tense) even toss a pizza crust in the air & catch it. I am trying to get back into the habit of cooking at home more...we will see how it goes. Anyway this is a picture of my happy hubby with his cake unfortunately I didn't have 47 candles so he got off easy with only 7. I really am lucky to have a husband that treats me as well as Joe does he loves (I think) to do things for me & I know I take it for granted sometimes & should do more for him than I do but I have to admit I love all he does to "spoil me rotten". I am also so grateful & blessed that he loves my children and considers them his own. I know it hasn't always been easy sometimes it seems that they all had emergencies at the same time but Joe never complained about helping in any way he could. I guess we are proof that for me anyway the 3rd time (married) is a charm. Happy Birthday Joe! I Love You!

Frustration...How do you do it???

Wow that last post was difficult. I had a really hard time getting the question on one line and the answer on the next line. I never did figure out how to get a space between the question & the answer... All I know is that what I wrote in the create a post & what I saw in the preview looked NOTHING like the actual post on my blog! Any answers to why that is would be appreciated because it was FRUSTRATING!!!
