Parties. (and update)

Jeff's birthday party was yesterday and it was AWESOME. we had a ton of people show up, and while the guys played xbox the girls watched the kids and had massive amounts of girl talk. After a while the guys watched the kids WHILE playing xbox so the girls could go play a few games. We played Last Night On Earth and Munchkin . It was fun until Aedan wanted to go home and the guys were too into their game to want to leave so it got tense. I ended up talking Jeff into leaving about 4am. We took Ryan and Mike home and then didn't get back to our house until 5am. I was tired, but Aedan decided he only wanted to sleep until 8am. Since Jeff was the one who wanted to stay out late he was the one to get up early and I slept until noon. (I had the craziest dream about the Jonas brothers, which is funny because I don't know much about them, just what I see when the tv is on disney channel.)



Jeff's mom and step dad drove out to get his sister so we could have a combined birthday dinner for him and her. It was nice to see them since we no longer live with them. Once we got back from dinner I started thinking about Aedan's birthday party since the big day is less than a month away. I know we have 10 kids for build a bear on his actual birthday 3/5 at the time he was born 6:30pm. It is nice that all 10 I invited are RSVP'd already. BUT the big struggle comes with his party at our house the following Sunday. Jeff's mom only has Sundays off work so I made a special party for the people we didn't invite to build a bear (for cost reasons) and just looking at the list of people that could come makes me want to cry. All of my friends have kids, so I actually hope most of them don't RSVP or show up. The most likely people to show up makes a list of about 12 adults and 21 kids. I have 4 nieces and 3 nephews, my best friends all have at least 2 kids. It is nuts. I ordered the decorations and party supplies tonight and they should be here Friday, so I can pick up favors right before the party when I get the cake.



I can't believe Aedan is almost a year old, it is just crazy how fast time flies. We have had a lot of fun in his first year so I can't imagine what the rest of his life is going to be like.

Jeff is going to call his surgeon back tomorrow and schedule the consult, so before long we will know the actual surgery date so we can say bye bye ostomy. My man is cancer free (we got the scan result back) and we are going to hear from the genetic counselor soon so we will know if his genetic mutation can be identified. Once we know that we can take down all the info so Aedan can be tested later. The Doctor recommends waiting until Aedan is about 16 before doing the testing on him since the science will be improved and more accurate by then. Also at this time there isn't much they could do about it if he did have the mutation, they would have to wait to see if he ever formed the cancer at all. It is hard to think about now.


I have had a lot on my mind but I am sick of typing so I will go play my spiffy new nintendo DSi now.
