Birthday lockdown

I'm not here.  I have officially gone into crazytown panic mode.  I have two full days before the birthday party and about five full days of work to do to get it all done.  So of course I'm writing a blog post.

However, here's what I'll have for ya next week:

• How I sewed my shirt for the party and how it took twelve thousand hours and how I should have just bought a damn shirt
• Aaaaaallll the baking I'm doing.  Have done.  Will have done by the time you read about it.  Whatever.  The grammar/space-time continuum confuses me.  PS, if we say con-tin-you-um, why don't we say vac-you-um?  I think I'm going to start saying vac-you-um.  Or con-tin-youm.  One of the two.
• Lots and lots of birthday pictures!  Amy Barry, of amybarryphotography.com is coming to take pictures and I'm so excited!
• My religious conundrum regarding Easter.  I did go ahead and get Easter pictures for Sofia but I was conflicted about it.

Once again, this is a picture of a picture because they wanted too much

damn money for a digital file.

My parents and little cousin are due to arrive in the next few hours, my brother is arriving tomorrow night, and we have only one guest bed.  We're going to be sleeping on each other's laps.


Ok, I'm out.  I hope to be back next week but if not, send the cavalry because I may have died from blowing up 180 balloons.  That's not an exaggerated number.  


God help me.
