"I have 4 weeks til my birthday"


That has been a common line from Hayden over the past few days. He is so excited about his upcoming 3rd birthday party. I asked him what theme he wanted to go with and he said Thomas. Unfortunately, I did Thomas for him last year. Oh well, he insists on it again and that is what he is going to get. Clayton said that I may as well plan on doing Thomas parties for him until he is 20, lol. All the decorations and party supplies have been bought except the pinata. I bought his gift 2 months ago, so I am well prepared. He is getting a Video Now thingie with several movies. It's a portable handheld video player. I think that it will serve him well when we are in long lines, sitting in the waiting room at the doctor's office, etc. Anyway, I wrote out the guest list last night and came up with 31 guests. That doesn't even include family. Most of my family won't be there because they live 3 hours away and it will be a church day for them. Clayton's family will not be there because they live clear across the US in Wyoming and Nebraska. My house is unprepared for this party because it is so dirty right now. It's a good thing that I have hired a Merry Maid this month. Hopefully, my house will sparkle for his big day :)
