The Apple Dont Fall Far

OH MY GOD! i was watching mimi as she was playing a game on the computer, when suddenly, she springs up from her seat, puts a cupped hand over her butthole and lets out a fart, then comes over to me and shoves her hand in my face and says 'smell' in the EXACT same way rob does it! oh, my! daddy is definitely going to have to stop doing these things!!! i HOPE to God that mimi is NOT doing this at school!

CAKE CONTEST... Wilton Industries is having a castle cake decorating contest where contestants use at least 5 pieces of their Castle Cake Kit and winners are chosen monthly. I used about 5 pieces from their kit to make mimi's 4th bday castle cake, so i entered her cake in the contest. unfortunately, i didnt win. the winning cake was an bunny themed cake, which i'm not surprised won. i dont think it's an especially exciting cake, but i think the theme was right for the month of march (easter). i figured that would be the case when i entered the cake contest...i probably should have waited until august to enter the contest when there's few other themes one could choose for that month. here's the winning cake for march:---------------------------------------------------------
Had the WORST pain ever today. after dinner, i was suddenly hit with intense pressure and pain in my stomach and chest. the pressure was so horrendous i thought i was going to pass out. it must have lasted 2 minutes, but while it was happening, it felt so awful i thought it was an eternity before it finally eased up. one minute i'm feeling so much intense pressure and pain i am ready to black out and then as suddenly as it came on, it went away! i'm not sure, but i think the baby pushed up and into my stomach/heart...all of which is very tightly crammed up in there and feels pretty tight anyway, but he must have been stretching up into there and squeezing my full stomach up into my chest cavity. it was just awful! he has been kicking straight DOWN into my cervix all day today and the pain would take my breath away, but this...oy vey! i thought i was dying!

Gardening My Albatross

 sometimes when i think about giving up on life in general, and sitting like a blob all day, unbidden my mind fills up with images of a neglected garden turning brown, rotting, dying, and thats often enough motivation to keep going, if for no other reason than to prevent the desolation from becoming reality.  is it weird that when i think of dying one day, that i get sad knowing my garden will die when i am gone?  i dont think anyone else would go tend to it when i am no longer around.  i hope they will at least keep a plant or two in remembrance of me, but the little pollinator waystation i've been working for several years now to create will likely be razed and no more.

Rainbow Magic Birthday (Mimi's 7th Birthday)

this year was a particularly difficult year to plan mimi's birthday.  after rob's dad became terminally ill, i didnt think it was good time for a party for mimi and her friends, so we decided it was best to skip a party this year and just have a quiet family dinner out.  then after dad passed and we slowly started to get back into our routines again, we all began to feel bad about not having a party for mimi, so we decided to have a party after all...although, a much belated party. mimi said she really wanted to have a party here at the house.  she really really really wanted it here, so i told her she could, if she kept it small.  since she was turning seven, i allowed her to invite seven friends. then i tasked her with thinking up a theme, and she finally settled on a favorite book series of hers called Rainbow Magic .  how perfect...each of the book sets in the series showcases 7 fairies, whether they be the rainbow fairies, the gem fairies, the party fai...

Ozzy's Chut Dol (korean first birthday)

this saturday we celebrated ozzy's first birthday. in korean, this day is called the Chut Dol, the 'first birthday', and it is an important milestone. in ancient times when infant mortality was high, if a child reached his first birthday, his continued survival was generally assured and thus a cause for great celebration. the tradition continues to this day. it's a fun and special way to celebrate the child's first birthday. the invitations: i found some 'korean dol' digital scrapbook images online that i used to make these invitations to ozzy's birthday party. i printed out several copies of the flower and cut each part as an individual layer and layered them for a dimensional flower. the symbols on either side are the 'longevity' symbol. and the little tag is korean words that say, "happy birthday" when the card is opened, there are two panels on either side. when these panels are fully opened, there's information behind...
