As a single or married guy you pretty much can do whatever you want on the weekend. Sleep in. Go out to eat. You get to come and go as you please. It is nice. Soooo nice. This weekend I went to Sydney's 3rd birthday. Sydney is such a cutie pa-tootie so I will always go her bday (even though I gave up box seats to the Clipper game). Well in the past I have always declined kids bday parties because:
a. I do not have kids.
b. They are kinda wack.
c. Kids parties interfere with lounging time.
It was interesting to see at the party today how many people actually have kids and go to these parties! I mean parents and kids everywhere. It was not a pretty sight. I was thinking there are A LOT of kids here. They are all running around and yelling. Fella's you want birth control? Just go to a kids party and you won't be wanting kids. I dunno it was a bit overwhelming. I think I need to 'ease' into the kid party mode. It was all a bit unsettling.
The unnerving part is that I stayed for almost 2 hours and that was about the tops for the day. I was worn out after that. I was thinking, I haven't seen any football games, I haven't played any video games, is this truly what my life is going to become??
As soon as I thought about what I missed I realized the highlight of the day was pushing Sydney on the swing and how happy she was on the swing with her friends. I decided no party for my kid at 1 years old...it is just too much work.
Oh, I totally forgot, here is a pic of Aya and I at Sydneys party today. Aya is 39 weeks now. We thought the baby might come on my bday. At first I disliked sharing my bday but then I thought how great would that be? A chip right off the old block. I also realized that from now on MY NAME can also go on my sons cake! How great is that??! It is fabulous.
