Anyone mother can tell you the effects pregnancy tends to have on the brain. I haven't done my research to see if there is a medical link but any that has been pregnant once can vouch. Symptoms tend to include:
- Forgetfulness
- Train of thought loss
- Concept of Time loss
- Loss of Patience
Today is a prefect example. We were invited to a birthday party a week or two ago for a friend's daughter who is turning 1. I RSVP yes, told Mike, and even volunteered to make the Smash Cake. This morning the boys went off to work on the boy car, I cleaned the kitchen, got dinner in the crock pot, started laundry and went to chill with the computer and FB. One of my girlfriends, who is also invited to this party, replied to my post that I missed "baking a cake." This comment put me in a panic. I called my friend to confirm the party is today at 3pm. Mind you this all happened around 10:30am or 11. Needless to say I have been running around the kitchen like a mad cake baker! Within the hour I got the cake baking in the oven and the frosting made. I have not been able to get a hold of Mike to make sure he is home by 2. Right now I am just keeping my fingers crossed that in the next two hours I can:
- Shower
- Wrap birthday present
- Cool Cake
- Ice and decorate cake
- Get to Party on Time
From now on I will remember to write these things on the Calendar in the hallway. Thankfully I had everything needed in the house to get this cake made. I would feel AWFUL if Jayla didn't have a smash cake for her party. Come back and check to see if I manage to pull this off!
