What's the Word I'm Looking for?

...oh yeah... TASTELESS, or is it DISGRACEFUL??

Scarlett Johansson my dear, what have you done? 

Nude photos that apparently were hacked from her Iphone have surfaced on the internet. Granted NO she didn't upload them herself & probably had no intent on allowing anyone to see them especially the world, I still don't see why you would take such photos?

Seriously? Is it cool to want to take nude pics of yourself now a days? Did I miss that boat? (HAHA let's all thank God I did bahahahaha) 

I believe taking them at all is tasteless- and leaving them on your Iphone is just stupid because those are supposedly one of the easiest phones to hack into, especially if you're one of those dorky ass little boys that work at AT&T to begin with. 

Have a little respect for yourself- that's all I'm sayin!

It's Official...

Princess is officially 6!

I have had the hardest time with this, I'm not quite sure why. Is it because that means that I have to admit I'm 25 now? Is it because I have to admit that I need to let her grow up? Or is it secretly because I still wish she was my baby? Does this mean that she won't be my baby girl forever? GASP I hope not! I will raise all kinds of hell at her wedding, I will bring embarrassing baby pictures to the hospital when she gives birth to her first, and I will be that momma standing at the front door when some little boy shows up to pick her up telling him "pull up your pants, that's not cute, tighten that belt and it had better stay that tight ALL night long- or you will get a free sex change!" Just sayin, I'm not afraid to use my big mouth to tell some kid off over my baby girl!

Anyways, so we had her party on Saturday the 10th. It went fairly well, though we didn't do everything I wanted to do. My nieces are lazy and didn't want to play or do really anything I had planned so therefore nothing really got done. On top of that my mother forgot some things she was suppose to bring to help me out. The "tower bean bag toss" I made didn't get played with AT ALL, go figure, I took time to make it, why would it get played with? My mother forgot the big piece of paper to have them "paint the walls" like Rapunzel does in the movie "Tangled" and even though I had paint for each kid, it didn't get used. Go figure- money wasted! On the bright side though... she had a great time and got lots of great gifts that she thoroughly loves!

Let me start with the basic decor, Party City loved me because that's where a lot of her stuff come from...

Square plates for the food, and the smaller round plates for the cake. Also that's a Tangled tablecloth that isn't pictured very well. 

What's a Rapunzel birthday party without a Rapunzel Birthday Banner?? 

We laid out a "royal" feast for her guests. (the tray with just grapes- yeah that was all the birthday girl- that's how she wanted it!)

There ended up being honey butter and french bread here as well- it was a HUGE hit!

RECIPE TIME! 

Honey Butter

1 1/2 cup softened butter

2/3 cup honey

Beat together and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes before serving

THAT WAS SO FREAKIN SIMPLE!

This is the Princess's snow cone cup that my hubs & I worked SO hard on! They loved them to, the girls thought these were great!

THE CAKE! I LOVED HOW PRETTY IT WAS! A friend of mine made it- here's her website: Amber Morgan Cakes It was kinda rich, but I think that's most fondant cakes really. IT was awesome, the girls liked being able to pick between rice krispy treats or cake.

I just needed to share her fave gift from her Aunt Kat & Aunt Britty! She's so pretty! 

Now one more thing, on her actual birthday (well the day before) the Family Resource Center woman from her school called and told me that a local business had made her a cake. This cake was made by Sweet Blessings and they make birthday cakes for children on their birthdays who meet a specific income requirement that the resource center feels is worthy of such a thing- so she signed her up and I went and picked up this...

I mean how adorable is that?!

She really liked this cake, it was FOUR layers thick!

LOOK! geez!

Anyways, now that I have bragged about my munchkin's party- I guess I should move on to the next topic at hand... another blog post... yesterday was September 11th, I posted my rememberance blog early for that one- so I will just redirect you to that post instead of posting another one about it (lol). 

I Will Never Forget

Heart attack anyone?

9pm last night (Sunday August 28th) I put my baby in his sleeper to get ready for bed. He was perfectly fine. 

9am this morning he wakes up- looking like a complete mess!

This was on his belly, back, and thighs at that time. I was FREAKING OUT! What was this craziness? Who injected my baby with "swelly bumpy cream"??? Who was about to get the momma claws sank into their neck?

I called the dr IMMEDIATELY! Got him in for just an hour and a half later. (10:30). I was not happy when I got there and realized that it was spreading!

I was freaking out! As you can tell in that first pic, there wasn't any bumps on his face this morning, but by the time we reached the dr there sure was and on his neck too! (Also in his hair and around his arms, he wouldn't let me get pics of that though!)

Dr comes in, starts examining this awfulness... 

The Right Leg

The Left Leg

His Back (which was getting worse by the minute- literally!)

His Belly (that as even you can see- got worse in a matter of just 1 1/2 hours!)

She starts asking a million questions.

What's he eaten in the past 24 to 48 hours?

 Formula and vegetables he's had a thousand times before- clearly he eats well, nothing is really out of his league right now.

What's he been in contact with? 

Nothing really unusual, he was around a few dogs yesterday but no direct contact.

Anything out of the ordinary? 

Not that I can think of at the moment no.

Any new lotions or soaps? 

Nope, same thing since he was born.

Any new perfumes or laundry soaps? 

Not for anyone in the house.

What medications is he on and are any of them new?

 Zyrtec every night and he was recently prescribed Amoxicillin by another dr at the practice. 

DING DING DING- THERE YOU HAVE IT! WE GOT AN ANSWER! 

My entire family (almost) is allergic to Penacillin- a direct additive to Amoxicillin. Something he's been on a million times before for infections. But also something they have just upped his dose of- literally doubled it with this last prescription. 

My baby was diagnosed with hives due to an allergic reaction to his antibiotic. They have him on an allergy medicine and a steroid in order to combat the side effects he's suffering right now. He's acting ok, just doesn't look ok. We were told to keep an eye on his breathing to make sure that the skin reaction doesn't become anything more- apparently babies his age can go into annicaleptic shock (wow i know i spelled that wrong!) if they're condition goes untreated for too long- I caught his early though and we have it taken care of now.

I feel bad for the little guy, God love him, he needs some special loves and extra hugs for the next two days.
