Santiago's Birthday Party

Today I went to my buddy Santiago's 4th birthday party. At first I didn't want to go. I was just having to much fun at my house playing with my toys. Mommy kept saying, we gotta get ready Cody. But I just wasn't listening. In fact I was still in my PJ's. Hee-hee. So mommy finally got me motivated and off we went. I couldn't quite figure out where we were going since Santiago just lives a few houses down from us but it turns out that his birthday party was at his papito's house. So we get to their house and when we went inside they had a bounce house right in the living room. WHOA! I love bounce houses. But do you think I went in??? NOPE! I didn't know who all these people were. There was no way I was going to go in this bounce house by myself. So you know what? Daddy went in with me and it turns out that I was practically in there bouncing around for the rest of the party. Of course I came out to sing Happy Birthday to Santiago and eat cake and ice cream. Mommy brought my special cupcake to substitute for the cake. It was so yummy. I had a great time at Santiago's birthday party.

On our way home mommy and daddy thought I was going to fall asleep but no such luck. Then when we got home I decided that I wanted to play some more. I mean how can you not want to play after going to a party. It was go, go, go till 8pm. I know I wore mom and dad out. Ha-ha!

I just love being a mom

Mommy's note: Today I had a great day with Cody. He's just such a sweet little boy. The weather was so chilly out so it forced us to stay inside. Although I'm sure we could have went out, the thought of playing outside just totally turned me off. So we played inside. Cody is really into racing his cars and playing demolition derby. So we crashed our cars together. Just seeing his face light up, it just makes me smile. Oh, two of his toys are legos McQueen. So we take the entire toy apart and we race to put it back together. Usually he wins (wonder how that happens) but sometimes I have to win just too.

Right before he went down for his afternoon nap he was lying in his bed. He said something about his closet. Cody's new favorite movie right now is Monsters Inc. And if you've ever seen the show, it's mainly about these monsters who come thru a child's bedroom closet just to scare the living crap out them. So when he mentioned his closet, I opened it and said no monsters inside. He then called me kitty. I said goodnight Boo. Kitty is the monster Sully and Boo is the little girl that becomes Sully's friend. It was so cute to hear him call me Kitty then giggle with delight as he acted like Boo. I finally got him to take a nap but man, what a fun day today was.

Like I said, I just LOVE being a MOM!

Happy New Year! 2011!

WOW, so hard to believe that it's 2011. AMAZING! I hope to post tons of fun stories of Cody's adventures.

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
