Happy Birthday Jagger!

19/20 week Belly with Jagger

30 week Belly with Jagger (Still wearing normal clothes!)

At 2:00 am on October 23 2009 my water broke.  I was freaking out and called my friend Summer.  She talked me down from the ledge so to speak, because I was thisclose to a panic attack because I was about to go into labor with my second son at 35 weeks 6 days.  I wasn't as worried about him being a month early as I was with Aiden, because I had already done this once and Aiden was fine.  I was scared none the less though.

My bestie, Kristy, holding Jag a few minutes after he was born.

At this very minute my baby J had been born for only a few hours.  I texted right through my labor!  I didn't even have any pain medication or anything!

Jagger in the hospital -- Day 2!  Look at all that hair!

Fawk You Friday

It's Friday again, which means that I will be participating in my usual Friday blog activities, minus one of course.  In case you haven't heard Ashley (aka The Crazy Brunette) decided to quit blogging.  I know, I'm sad about it too.  I'm just glad that I can still keep in touch with her through Facebook and E-mail because if she had just vanished into thin air then I just wouldn't have known what to do, I believe I would have just cried myself to sleep every night.  You have to picture me saying that in my best sugary sweet Scarlett O'Hara Southern voice to understand it's full weight and impact.  That probably has something to do with why Ashley didn't disappear completely.  No one wants to see a pretty girl cry, it's just wrong!

To Ashley, we all miss your blog & your Blog Stalk Friday as well as all you had done for our little community of bloggers here.  I prefer Ashley to CB any day though, and am very proud of you for making a hard decision and throwing in the towel.  I hope to one day see you back in the blogosphere as Ashley, without any other persona or mask to hide behind, you're far too fabulous to be taking on an online persona and posting as only part of yourself while hiding the other wonderful parts of your personality and who you are away.  Everyone loved CB, but all of those who know you love Ashley even more.  You're an amazingly loyal wife, mother, sister, daughter and friend.  I'm glad to have "met" you and am proud to call you (Ashley) my friend!  Long story short -- You're the shit, bitch!

Now, onto Fawk You Friday with two of my favorite bitches Jana from Boobies Babies & a Blog and Christy from I'm Just Sayin'!

You two better not leave me, because I really don't know what I would do without Fawk You Friday to list the things that piss me off each week!

The coolest Birthday Party -- EVER!

I'm in the midst of planning the coolest first birthday party that you've ever seen.  It's taking up a good deal of my time, and between that and my design work I haven't had very much time for my own blog.  Which makes me sad, because I really do enjoy blogging.  Since the party is on my mind, I've decided to blog about it.  Well, I also need somewhere to put my ideas.  A place where Aiden won't find them and rip the paper they're written on to shreds or draw me a picture on them.  You get the idea.

Jagger's party is going to be a Halloween themed costume party.  I absolutely love Halloween!  It's one of my favorite holidays, and I am so beyond psyched to plan this party and go all out with decorations and all that!

The first order of business is the theme.  Since I've decided on what I want it's time to pick the decorations, plates, cups and all that good stuff.  For this I did an extensive search of the interwebs, and this is what I have come up with!

Meet The Boo Bunch!

You can check out the full selection of Boo Bunch decorations and party supplies here!  I am getting both of these and these plates, cups, napkins, table cloth, door cover, this banner, the cupcake tower, these edible images and this banner which will say Happy First Birthday Jagger!
