Cure for stress

My mom’s 80th party was nice.  Being around family can be a bit much – wanna know a good cure for anxiety?  It’s all natural!

Holding a sweet baby.  This is my sister’s 9 month old son.  I had him all to myself for hours and even babysat after the party so she could go shopping with family.  I was in heaven.

The party was great.  My brother’s speech got off course there for a minute about 1/2 way into it which had the crowd gasping with mouths dropped wide open… I sat there laughing because quite frankly, I thought it was hilarious.

We had a professional photographer and as soon as the pics are uploaded online I will share them in a private post.

    I’m so glad you had a good time at the party! Your mom must have loved it! That baby looks so sweet. Makes me even more anxious to go home for Christmas and meet MY nephew!

      Oh, I didn’t want to let that baby go. He is not a fussy baby- just likes to be held. No problem there ;) I’ll bet you are excited to meet your new nephew!

    What a beautiful baby. You’re right, it’s hard to beat a warm, snuggly, snoozing baby to make everything right.

    So glad to hear the party was a big success (you look pretty wearing my favorite color!). :)

      The speech was off the hook NUTZ! As I look around and see mouths gaping open, I just sit there and laugh- even the hubs is shaking his head out of embarrassement. Me, meh- not so much- I just laughed and lived in the moment! My bro got off track there for a minute ;) lol!
