Birthday party for my *almost* 2 year old

So yesterday was Miss Bug's Birthday party. The theme was balloons and man were there a ton of balloons. She absolutely loved it. I made the invites and sent them out at the beginning of the month and told people to RSVP by the 14th. I didn't want someone to show up and not have enough goodie bags because the mom could send me a text/message on fb/call to tell me they were coming. Well I have about 30 people suppose to come (counting kids). Part of me knew not everyone who rsvped would actually show up, but it would have been nice to been told that they weren't able to make it.

I seriously was hurt yesterday when people who claim to me as family and claim that Miss Bug is their adopted niece/granddaughter didn't bother letting me know that they weren't able to make it. It would have been a completely different story if they had let me know why they weren't coming but they didn't do anything except respond to a text I sent them apologizing. I told Papi yesterday that I was going to get my daughter's baby clothes I lent to them and I was washing my hands of them. They haven't asked about Miss Bug since they got a vehicle and didn't need me to drive them all over. Fine, act like this now, get on my bad side and you will NEVER see me or my daughter again.

Onto the person who I have always said was my sister. She has 2 boys, my nephews, who absolutely love playing with their cousins. Fred and George were up from Chicago with Memaw so they could come to Miss Bug's party. S told me she was coming and then invited me to Monkey's birthday party. I was happy to go, especially since it's possible that I won't be able to make it down for another one in a while. Now you would think if I brought Miss Bug to Monkey's party she would make an effort to come to Miss Bug's, but no. Even when Memaw called to make sure she was still coming it rang once then went to voicemail which means she ignored the call. How f****n rude.

Needless to say, I was over the moon pissed at people.

However, I'm happy at the people who actually did show up. Memaw, GG, Fred, George, Mimi, both Miss Bug's Godmommas, Unk, Aunt E, Tisha, and SB (who took the pictures for us) all showed up for Miss Bug. Yesterday showed me who I could count on especially Tisha because the last time she saw Miss Bug, she was only about 3 months old. I'm hoping the next post will have pictures to post.


My little girl is getting so big and so smart so fast. I swear she is advanced for her age, but I am her momma so my opinion is extremely bias. I know she is going to grow up happy and that's all I really care about, her just being happy and enjoying her childhood to the fullest.

Post ya later.

Life's about to get real crazy

I'm sitting up at the hospital waiting for Papi to get out of surgery.  Time seems to be dragging on right now. I'm ready to know he's out and everything went great. I hate hospitals and just think I may end up working in one. I think it's just the fact that you never know what's gonna happen and it's a little scary. I know he's gonna be okay but there's still that fear that they could do more damage in the long run. However, he trusts the doctor so I will.

I'm also ready to be out of mid-Michigan. As much as I loved growing up here it's just too hard to live here now. I couldn't even find a job in Flint. Hopefully I can find something where I get more than 4-8 hours a week. I'm really looking forward to making a fresh start in a new city. School is gonna be completely different because i'm not going for lpn anymore.

Miss Bug is thriving. She's so smart and getting so big. I can't believe how beautiful she's become. She truly is the beat thing to ever happen to me. I can't wait to make her a big sister. I'm ready for that stage. She already mommies her baby dolls and I see how she acts around other babies. She's gonna be an amazing big sister one day.

Well, i'm gonna end here and i'll write again soon.
