Happy Blogoversary To Me



In March, I not only celebrate Ethan and James’ birthdays, but the birth of my blog, “Sippy Cup Adventures,” which quickly became “The Clothesline.” Looking over a year’s worth of posts made me realize that I worry a lot. Take one of my first posts on "Sippy Cup Adventures," titled “Countdown to B-Day.” In this post, I practically have a meltdown over the thought of Ethan having a meltdown from celebrating his birthday at Pump It Up. I was afraid the kids, noise and excitement would be too much for Ethan, whom has autism. But all that worry was for nought--we had such a great time we threw similar party for Ethan and James this year. How was my mental state this time around? A little better—at least I didn’t hyperventilate. I’m trying to take my own advice.

Happy birthday/blogoversary. And an afternoon at Pump It Up is enough to send me into a meltdown.

Happy Blogiversary!

I'm glad that the boys had a good party. I always stress myself over parties, too!

Yeah, sounds like my blog in the beginning -- a lot of whining and worrying and stressing and ...wait. I think it's been like that lately too. Oy! It has come full circle!

Happy blogoversary and happy early birthday to your boys!

Happy Blogoversary! Congrats on one year! And I know how you feel. I'm trying to not get so stressed out myself. I think more wine would help ;)
