Do I have to make a title for every blog entry?

Blog picture feature is only just a LITTLE ticking me off right now. No pics now, sorry.

I should be sleeping, but I'm too excited since Pat is gone now to pick up by brother (in-law) Ryan and Aunt Jan from the airport. Flights to BKK always seem to be around midnight, so they probably won't be here until around 1:30am. Tomorrow night Pat's parents arrive and this will be one full house...a full crazy fun house. We're all ready for them, rooms are set up. Sawyer's sleeping in our room while our guests are here. Even though he's in his crib and I can't snuggle up next to him, this is still nice because I can open my eyes and see him sleeping whenever I want. Not the most cuddly guy, he's independent and needs his space for serious sleeping.

New Year's Eve was interesting. We decided not to do the big downtown area and went to an American restaurant with lots of Embassy people. Dinner was on the second floor but we moved up to the third floor for the party part. Okay, small room, beat-up red couches, a small bar, lighting straight from Spencer's in the mall...and music? You down with OPP? I'm a material girl. Every little step I take... if you didn't go to elementary school or middle school with me, then you might not know what I'm talking about. Here's how it goes with this type of music. We get up there, maybe a glass of wine with dinner settling into our bloodstream, and say, "HAAA this is hilarious! Do you remember this song? Wow, this is some funny stuff!" After a little more C&C Music Factory, we call out (we call out because it's louder now), "Do you think the DJ takes requests? This music is awful!" Then, after a few more vodka tonics or gin and tonics since they were interchangeable according to the bartender, we're all dancing. When I say we, this is Pat and I and a few friends from his work. Pat did his usual dances. I probably did my usual dances, and one of those includes the Carlton. Yikes. It was a silly night.

Tonight was my friend's baby shower. Eva is due in a few weeks, but we think she might go a bit early. I made some baby rattle cupcakes for the shower and was pleased enough to take pictures. Lots of people do food blogging, but don't worry, I won't bore you with my amature creations very often. While I can't take credit for the idea which I got on the internet, I will take credit for not crying when 5 of these babies fell on the floor before I walked out the door to the shower. The tears were there but I held them back.

Another friend here had her baby boy this last Saturday. His name is Dylan and from what I see in pictures, he's a gorgeous little boy. Another friend is due in a few weeks, Marianne, and isn't Rachel G. due soon? It's funny...I can really look back and laugh because doesn't it seem like just last week that I had a blog pity party being the only one who is not pregnant? And now these gals are popping or ready to pop! And my friend Angie is just beginning the journey! But really I laugh because here I am, still here, still awash with love from our little boy. Number 2 will come soon enough. Speaking of number 2...

Guess what Number 1 said tonight to daddy? Well, first he had a little gas, toot, whatever you call it. Actually, I hear this was a big toot. And since daddy has really been hands-on with the vocabulary building, Sawyer was quick to say, "Biiiiig fart!!!" Nice huh?
