Hello Beautiful!

I’m feeling a little emotional today.  It’s my oldest’s birthday.  That’s right Julian is 13 today.  I can officially say I have a TEENAGER!!!!

Holy %$#&!!!!!  

Where did the time go??? I know I just had to say it.  I think I’m still a little in shock.  You see in the past year so many changes have happened that it still has my head spinning.  First of all we added an addition to our family Jacob, our youngest, who is 16 months, Kayla is in double digits now, the BIG 10, and then we turn to Juju… my Pumpkin… my first born.

In the past year this little boy has completed skyrocketed past me.  There was a time when he was smaller than me or right at the edge.  I mean I know I’m not the tallest of the bunch, with my 5 ft 2 inch self, but come on…. this boy sprouted like a weed and is now practically 5 ft 11 inches. I know!

I find myself just staring at him–watching him, wondering what he’s thinking.  You know boys, they get to the point in their life where they think they know everything and that there mom is just annoying… I guess and that they have selective hearing.

For all those mom and dads who know that I’m talking please raise your hand!!!!

YEP! You all know what I’m talking about…

Don’t get me wrong, he’s a great kid, well behaved, very respectful and great student, loyal friend and lovable person… But he’s just a teenage boy. 🙂

(I secretly wish for the time when he would climb in bed next to me snuggling, and rubbing my ear for comfort).

But anyways… let’s get to the best part of celebrating this day! That’s right its the super duper yummilicious (not a word) cake I made for him.  I asked him what kind he wanted and he said something  with brownies…

I said “Ok I got the perfect thing!”  Funfetti Cake Batter Cookie Dough Brownie Cake!  

Try saying that 10 times fast 🙂 

This cake has everything that screams, Happy Birthday!!!!
