Cash's Moustache Bash

Cake by Maria-Jose's Cakes in Bowmanville, ON

I started planning for Cash's 3rd birthday sometime last year. I got the idea to have a moustache bash when all of those awesome photobooth pics started popping up all over Pinterest with the fake moustaches. Shortly thereafter about a zillion mom bloggers must've had the same idea because the Moustache Bash was born! I love the idea of unconventional party themes, although it makes it more difficult to find things like favours and decorations, it also allows my creativity to run wild! 

ALL the Moms!

If you haven't heard (because you've been living underground since the dawn of time, or you're a vampire who doesn't watch television or read magazines, in which case, thanks for stopping by my blog, vampy!) Mother's Day is fast approaching. The ONLY day off we (might) get all year, us Mom's are pretty PUMPED about Mothers Day. 

Don't let those fools who say "I don't need a special day to celebrate heaving a child through my womb and dealing with fecal matter on a semi-regular basis, I LOVE my job of being a mother" make you think Mother's Day isn't the holiest of all days. It is. It's right up there with Xmas! 

Vocabulary and the Lack Thereof

Carter is 18 months now. I can barely believe how fast time has flown with him. He is quite the roustabout! He's into everything, very physical and really just all over the place. He also still loves sleeping! Every night at bedtime if we aren't getting the gears in motion to put him to bed he will pick up his blankie and paci, waddle into his room and point at his crib. He's really serious about it too.

Last week I took him to his doctor and we did all of the usual stuff, the shot (note no plural there) as well as the height and weight, and the dreaded checklist of milestones. Is he walking without support? Yes of course! Can he follow simple instructions? He loves helping mama throw out diapers after a change.

Does he have 20 or more words... errr...no. In fact, with the exception of the occasional mama and dadadada and "mmmbop" (yes, mmmbop! You can't make that stuff up!) he has no words. Zero. Zilch. Nada. None!!!
