Nope, they’re not babies anymore.

Today was Devin’s birthday.  It’s amazing to think about how fast they grow, and yet, it seemed like forever ago he looked like this:

Cute little shit, wasn’t he?

Yesterday and today though, he looks like this:

                                                                                                    

 I love how he’s smiling at his cake lol  I made him a Fudgy Chocolate Grasshopper cake (he picked it)…I guess the days of the Buzz Lightyear and Pokemon cakes really are very, very far behind us now….I miss that *sniff*   Anyway, the cake was good, here’s a better pic..sooo yummmmmy!!

(ok you wouldn’t know it if I didn’t tell you but it just took 5 tries to get that damn pic on there! LOL)

So, tomorrow is a big, HUGE day here in my house.  I can hardly believe it myself, but Jordan is going to start kindergarten tomorrow.  I have such mixed feelings…I mean, I am glad she’s going, but at the same time, it means my ”baby” isn’t A baby anymore and it kinda makes me sad.  I think I’m more nervous about it than she is honestly!  I keep thinking and hoping to myself all those things any mom does I guess…did I prepare her right, have I taught her all she needs up until this point?  I should be ecstatic, but I’m really kind of scared….Normal?  You tell me….  I do have a day planned though so I don’t just come home and mope lol.  I’m meeting friends for coffee, then going out to lunch for PIZZA at the great place one of them found.  It should be a lot of fun and keep me from worrying about if Jordan misses her mommy LOLOLOLOL.  I’ll be sure to get a pic of her as she goes off to school.  I’m putting her on the bus with her sisters, then meeting the bus at the school to make sure she gets to her classroom ok.  (honestly, I’m only going so I don’t look like the mom who sucks and just sends her kid off aimlessly without tagging along like all of the other over protective moms lol)

Jordan also has her very first loose tooth, one of the bottom ones.  The new one has already broken the skin behind it and we can see it really well.  Craziness.

Lastly, please help me send some “everything’s gonna be alright” vibes out to my little sister Judy.  She’s got to see the doc this week for something and since I can’t physically be there for her, I want to give her a “virtual shoulder” (if you will) to lean on.  I love you kiddo! *mwah*
