mad crazzzy birthday...

my son has just celebrated his 1st birthday! what a night!! please tell me yo'll, why is it that everytime a black person has a party there is always drama?! geez, this party was no exception, we talking some serious biotch slapping...wait up! lets be real, them heffa's were fighting over a "mahn"! whatta lot of wasted energy; sistahs you gotta stop giving them power over you!!!

in addition, we also had a "let me see some I.D?." visit from the po-po, you know how we do!

Anyho, moving on........................

some background info on birthday boy:

my lil man is the centre of our universe and when i say "our" i mean his two attentive sisters who are forever at his beck and call and yours truely! unfortunately, lil man hasn't had the opportunity to meet his dad, who currently lives on the other side of the globe (an issue that we deal with every day.)

but i tell you what, he sure aint lacking attention, the never-ending kisses, the cuddles and the mega huge LOVE he recieves from everyone! yep...the boy is spoilt rotten!! what do you expect he lives in an all female household!
p.s. just the other day he was calling his (female) cousin "daddy"! what do you think about that? no gender issue there.

oh... and lil man can run his mouth, don't ask me what he's saying, i still haven't grasped the baby/grownup/english/pisin/creol/mandigo language that he speaks. as long as it makes perfect sense to him, then there's no need for me to go there!

fyi. the little bugger decides to crawl for the first time only 6 weeks shy of his birthday, believe me, we thought he would never do it, esp. since he's mastered the art of looking cute, so everyone tended to pick him up and often. so in layman terms: cuteness + pick up = no need to crawl.

in hindsight> we just wanted to hold on to the "baby" for a little bit longer.
