We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day for Adelaide's birthday party. The weather was cooperating, the shopping was done, the cupcakes were baked, the cake pops were on their way to completion and a full pan of rice crispie treats were just begging to be sliced and served up. Yep, it was going to be a fantastic Halloween birthday over here today. That is, until Adelaide puked. What the hell kind of luck is that?! Poor kid spent her birthday party day laid up on the couch watching TV with a revolving wardrobe and blanket. Puking sucks. Watching your kid puking is the worst :(
We I decided to reschedule her party (Jordan was telling me to just forget it, it's not the first time something like this has happened and it won't be the last. Men. <Insert eye roll here>). I'll admit that there is a tiny bit of a selfish element in my desperate desire to reschedule. I mean this was the party of my dreams. A Halloween party. I tried to schedule Adelaide's birth around the ability to throw her a Halloween birthday party every year. (I found out my math was a teeny bit off when I was given a September 26th due date. Before you get pregnant you don't realize you have to count those 2 weeks before you're actually pregnant when determining the due date <insert angry face here>). But more importantly, I wanted this party for her. She has been so looking forward to having her friends and cousins over. I want to see her as everyone sings Happy Birthday to her. She needs to blow out her candles! So anyway, reschedule I did. She'll only have to wait a few extra days, although we'll be short a few friends unfortunately. I think as long as there are fresh cupcakes, it'll work out okay in the end.
And in the meantime, here are a few bunch of birthday photos I snapped of her a couple of days ago, before this stomach bug got the best of her. Hopefully she'll be back to her smiling self tomorrow. Happy not-birthday party day sweet girl. We'll try again in a couple of days, xoxo.
Was that too many? I'm not a decision-maker. I'm just not.
