  • My baby turns 1 year old!

    Sorry, can't post a pic right now, perhaps later though (to this thread).

    Just posting in between cleaning the house and waiting for guests. This happy day is a tough one for us, it is a very special day as you can imagine and all but few cancelled on us like a day or two ago, one by one. To us it seemed like a big FU, especially seeing through that most we invited (and are our relatives, too!) and live like two miles away (literally) are making up stories and are simply not being truthful. I know it's weekend but because just about everyone did it, it really sucks.

    My SO did a lot of work, baked a lot of stuff and prepared for this and this will still be a special day, we decorated the house yesterday, had a theme and everything. A weird thread (what could you expect) and complaining (what could you really expect) but I feel so freaking bad for my baby and SO who is about to cry that... just want to punch some people. We were supposed to hold together and trust, but having like both grandmas come is OK and stuff but we invited a whole bunch of people who did confirm they're good to come and I guess it's hang over time today and "ooh damn it's that b-day thing, can't be arsed to go".

    So **** you, I can handle it but my special princesses are the ones needing support. So I'll had my venting and will now continue to clean up the house. ****ing people, letting you down on every possible turn. Where is your heart? I mean, you think when you cancel on someone, that you're the only one, but guess how it feels when from group of 20, 3-4 or actually coming and they are your parents? My SO was just crying how it's good that we don't need anyone else. That's not entirely true nor the true situation, but you know what I'm saying. I'm glad my princess doesn't really understand what's going on. It's not about us, it's about our baby, but it's difficult to not be pissed off about it.

    I'm not writing a book about it but this isn't exactly the first time my close relatives pull this kind of stunt off at the last minute. Last time everyone vanished except my mom and dad and SO was when I was undergoing life threatning surgery. I guess this sums it up for me. They can go **** themselves. ****ing self centered *******s.

    OK, back to cleaning the house. We'll pretend as if.

      I will. We decided that next year we will invite our friends and friends of our baby. Only grandmas come and the rest is non-relatives, since this is the nth time this happens.

          Have fun anyway... and post a pic of the baby trying to eat cake.
          There's nothing wrong with the dream, my friend, the problem lies with the dreamer.

              When my niece turned one, we set her down in her high chair and put an open tub of Breyer's vanilla ice cream in front of her. She dipped a finger in...tasted it...considered...dropped her whole face into the tub. Good times. Have the greatest day you can, Pekka. I'm told that, in subjective years, she'll be turning twenty tomorrow. My niece is ten already. My son/daughter is at T-minus four months. I have no idea WTF I'm in for, but it's going to be wild.

                I'm not sure it would have been a good idea to invite a large number of people to a baby's first birthday. It's not like the baby can appreciate it and sometimes large crowds scare them, particularily if they're all oggling the kid and pinching and getting in her face.

                    become better friends with them or ditch them. you're obviously not very high on their priority list.

                      Strangelove, That's an excellent point. I think we had enough people as it was. Looking back, I'm happy certain people didn't come anyway. It would have been too overwhelming for her. Besides, it is her b-day, not ours.


                      Elok, Your first one coming up? Wow Congrats!!! Don't worry... everything is normal in your shoes, especially the "I don't know what I'm doing"-thoughts. All I can say is, it's not rocket science, and really dumb people have done a great job raising their kids. Then again, really smart people have done bad job so go figure...

                      Oerdin, I'll post pics! There's a pic of my kid somewhere, on some cutefest thread by the way. I have tons of pics, I'll probably post few soon. She's an angel
