Crazy Cupcake Mess
So for many of those who already know, my baby Tyler is turning 2 on Sunday. For which it sadens me that he is already this big, but that is neither here nor there. So for daycare today he had a birthday party, for which I was allowed to bring a treat for the kids in his class to celebrate the big 2 with him. Jeff and I searched the store last night for a hour and a half trying to decide what to make as far as cupcakes were concerned. I was going to make them home made, of which I had every good intention! We gathered all the nessecary stuff, and then decided to check the prices of already made cupcakes! Why not, they were 5 dollars a dozen, hence all the time I would spend preparing them I thought "Sure, I'll do that, then the boys will never know about the cupcakes"! So we did it, we made it home with a present and cupcakes in the truck and two boys who knew nothing of this little plan! (I keep it quiet to my boys since the diaster last year with Dieter's cupcakes!) So we woke up early this morning, and off to drop them off I go, when Tyler who was just got out of bed, was screaming out of hunger! So I say "Tyler it is your birthday party today at school, and these cupcakes are for you and your class"! Okay, first you would think I would learn by now that telling them about sugar period is not a good idea, nor was telling the newly 2 year old about something that he would want to help with! Immediatly Tyler cryed the whole way to the daycare, and all the way out the car until I handed him in those tiny little hands a tray of cupcakes! Oh how his face lit up with a sugar high! Okay so it went well until he couldn't see over the cupcakes to watch where he was going and tripped over the cement! Yes cupcakes went everywhere, so and I am sorry to say the I being the mom in me that I am, quickly picked up the cupcakes wiped the dirt off and put them back in the box! I know your thinking "What did she just do"! But as you will expreiance in those times of crazyness and your a mom you will do things that you never saw yourself doing before! Tyler on the other hand was also picking them up and proceeding to tear the liner off and eat them, as if we never feed his bottomless pit!! So needless to say the cupcakes made it to school, along with a screaming little boy who knew nothing but mommy was not only leaving him earlier then normal but with out sugar in his little cabagepatch hands! So as I left the daycare building I could feel my eyes start to feel with tears that Tyler was 2, that I had almost got mad for the cupcake mess, and that my two boys were growing up before I was pleased that I had done the best job in thier small years. So I get in my car take a few deep breaths and remind myself, that even though there crazyness in life that it is okay sometime to lose it and be a weeping mom of insanity that your kids will still love you and that life will go on there are many more exciting moments to look forward too!! :)

Ryan and I sat here and laughed while reading this! There MUST be a dramatic cupcake story, or there wouldn't be a birthday, hahah.
I'm SO HAPPY that you started a blog! For reals. I loved your first post, it was hilarious, and I love you all. I'm excited to see you all on Sunday.
Love you.
My favorite is the bandaid on D.'s ear in the below picture. On his ear??? He is so funny.
Too funny - typical cupcake story - maybe next year you can do bags of candy and save yourself some grief - but it does make a funny story! Love you! Mom
