The Never Ending Birthday

Last week we went 'home' to Wisconsin for McKinley's birthday. (which actually isn't until 11/23) She wanted to have a birthday party with some of her friends up there. Did you know that McDonalds in Racine does NOT do birthday parties anymore? WTH??? Anyways I rented the party room there and McKinley got her McDonald's birthday party. Let me tell you 7 kids 4 yrs and under...um.....HEADACHE. There was so much loud screaming, crying and bickering it was unbelievable. But McKinley had a great time and that's all that matters anyways, right? So we come home on Monday and then on Wednesday a few of McKinley's friends had a little party for her here at, drumroll please, MCDONALDS. It was nothing huge just lunch, cupcakes and gifts. My dear friend Jody is so good to my kids!! McKinley thought it was so cool to have yet ANOTHER birthday. THEN last night Aunt Shannan came and brought a birthday card from Oma and Opa so McKinley assumed she was now turning 4 since she already, "had enough 3 year old birthdays." And then today, Thanksgiving, daddy gave her yet another birthday present, just because and now McKinley is ALL sorts of mixed up about birthdays. It's kind of funny. Poor girl. I'm just going to skip telling her that TOMORROW is her ACTUAL birthday...I think she'll have a complete and utter breakdown. Although I shouldn't be THAT surprised as I'm married to the man who claims that he gets 'Birthday MONTHS' not just birthdays.
