We had Madalyn's birthday party this afternoon since she had the flu for the first time we had scheduled her party. It was a nice, warm sunny day, actually the first time she's had a sunny, warm day for a party since her 1st birthday. We had some minor bumps in the road with getting the party going, but thanks to Kevin for helping set up, watching the girls, and clean up. You sure can't do birthday parties by yourself. One of the bumps was not funny at the time it happened, but I have to tell you about....Alexis sat on the cake! We had gotten to church (where her party was going to be). I put the cake on the sidewalk in the shade to keep it cool because we were waiting on the keys to open the church and the next thing I know Kevin was saying, "no Alexis" and grabbing her because she had sat on the cake. Thankfully he grabbed her before too much happen. You wouldn't know it looking at the cake but one side was pushed and mashed in a little. Why birthday parties have to be so hard and stressful on us moms, I don't know. But we do it for our kids and all those bumps go un-noticed by most. Madalyn had a fun afternoon. :0)
