i can't believe P is one!

i probably heard this statement 100 times this weekend, including the number of times it went through my mind.  pierce is growing up considerably faster than his sis.  although i am well aware that he has not manipulated space and time, it seems that way.  he got a real kick out of the toys he received from his cousins and friends.  i don't get the impression he cared about the clothing but i had plenty of opinions about them (mostly good:).  

so i feel like the party was a success.  many people seemed to enjoy themselves and let's face it the party was more for the grown-ups as evidenced by the fact that p slept for more than two hours right in the middle of the festivities.  

my brother scott missed the party due to a work commitment.  i plan on bringing that up for years to come because he thinks i care that he missed it.  in reality it's hard to keep track of the comings and goings of anyone but my two little people.  so no hard feelings, i am glad to have saved you the calories if you were unable to get to the party.  between the brownies, sugar cookies, bitlawa, butter cookies, yellow and green popcorn and b-day cake, i am really not sure how we made it through the day without some sort of code or shock-like heart attack happening.  

my house looks a little like a toy store threw up, not complaining.  i love new toys, they are so much fun to play with.  i am finding that keeping the pieces of the arc and the carnival and the trucks and boat people and all the parts of all the toys together is a little overwhelming.  i may invest in a lot of baggies that keep all the parts with the respective toys.  because that sounds like fun.  lately i feel like its possible i remove the fun from just about anything.  

yesterday we got a membership to the YMCA here in sunny LP.  i have high hopes of working out on a regular basis.  there is virtually no way i can stay this out of shape for much longer (right?)  i was discussing said membership with a friend at work and she joked that my card will no doubt get moldy!  i am really looking forward to making her eat those words.  (see how it always comes back to eating something)  

clearly, i have no clue how to attach pictures and then move them.  cut and paste doesn't work and i tried to write and then have a picture and then write more, didn't work.  so i may give up on having this blog look like i know what the hell i am doing.  

and no, i am not bitter.
