Cake

….oh my, while the holidays are now a fond memory, the extra poundage (aka snowball cookies) continues to rear its backside to the clothing store for a larger size pair of pants. (If I could, I would insert the beeping of a truck backing up LOL!) I blame it on the blitz of birthday bashes the past month that officially ended tonight…with my baby's 5th birthday! Can you believe it....FIVE children’s birthdays and 1 adult the past 3 weeks! Cake, pizza, candy, cupcakes….should I even mention the trail mix and banana bread left over from our board meeting, or that night where I vegged on the couch with a bowl of ice cream?

For the young’ins, these parties have included racing games, little gyms, running through parachutes, kicking balls and balloons! They eat their cake all red-faced and sweaty. For us old folks, we just sat on the sidelines gossiping about our children with a fork in one hand and a plate of cake in the other!

And as I ramble on, it just occurred to me that Valentine’s Day is next week….so I better reframe all of this…..how about a little Vitamin CH on those strawberries please. LOL Better get these sweet cheeks to the gym!!!

ANYWAY….I should mention how proud I was of Alan during all of these parties. He certainly is a charmer …(minus the time that he and his friend told me they invented the word ...”dork”).

Happy 5th Birthday to my baby!!! Photos to be posted on Facebook soon!

PS: A shout out to Jules and the boys, thanks for coming over tonight!!! You are the best....
PSS: I used to be called Cake, Cakis, etc....and I still have that Hostess t-shirt LOL....
