Scooters Birthday

Last weekend was Scooter's birthday party. The family decided to have it at my house and to have a little pool party. Scooter came and stayed with me the Friday before and we had lots of fun. We played games, went to the park, went out for breakfast and decorated his birthday cake. He has entered a weird stage (for him) in his childhood - he talks non-stop. He has turned into his sister. By 10am Sunday morning I was ready for him to go. We had planned to have his party at 3pm at the pool. I was calling my parental unit by 10:30 wondering when they were going to show up. To save my sanity, Scooter and I were at the pool as soon as I got off the phone with my parents. Needless to say that even with my 50+ spf sunblock, I got fried. Currently, I am molting. I feel like a snake loosing its skin. While I know that it is my own fault, I feel like I should have been able to at least lean on the sunblock for a little bit of protection. And yes, it was reapplied a couple of times throughout the day. I'm thinking that I am just going to have to get a night job and become a hermit.

Anyway, just a couple of pics of my Scooter and the cake that he decorated!
This is my boy on Friday night. Isn't he just the cutest! I love, love, love his freckles!
