Brayden and Kaitlyn's First Birthday Party

It went GREAT! A lot of people showed up. Not as many as I invited but still more than I could have expected. Even Gabby was there! The only thing that really pisses me off is that I had no time AT ALL to take pictures of my son at his birthday party! I've got a few pictures that my brother in law took of him destroying his smash cake and I'm sure other people took some pictures too. I'll just have to get them from everyone. We got a lot of wonderful compliments on the house and our paint choices. I was loving it. Brayden got tons of toys which is great but what he really needed was clothes! We just bought him a bunch of 6-9 month clothes a few months ago when he FINALLY grew out of 3-6 months and he decided to start growing super fast. Now he doesn't fit in his 6-9 month clothes anymore. Babies are a pain! Haha. Anyway, I'm really glad the party went well and I wanted to thank everyone that came. I'm glad we made a big deal out of it! Love you all!

Why can't anything go right?

First of all, Brayden's father is a jackass. I made a huge mistake by having a child with him but I wouldn't take Brayden back for anything. He has been slacking on seeing brayden since the day he was born and hasn't paid me a cent in child support. I gave up on trying to get him to see his son. Lately he's been calling once a month or so to ask if he can take him. I never say no unless we already have plans and I made sure to talk to him about notifying me in advance. He's pissed because I won't let him take Brayden overnight. Brayden doesn't know him well enough for that. I would like him to get to know his son before taking him for a long period of time. This is for my son's sake, not to make Mike mad. He thinks I am being completely unfair and that I treat him like shit. I think I'm being completely reasonable considering he's a deadbeat dad. He just pisses me off.

Second, Steven's ex-wife is at total BITCH! When they were going through their divorce she didn't let him see Gabby for a whole month. She even tried to get him to sign over his rights at one point. She told the judge she was afraid Steve was going to take Gabby and he set it up so that he could have supervised visitation for the first few months, he could take her to his apartment for a few hours the next few months, and after that he would be able to take her Sunday noon to Monday noon. Well, just recently we started taking her 10:00am to 5:00pm on Saturdays which is better than before but the court date was a year ago. We should be getting her overnight by now. She claims that because he missed a few days of seeing her that he should have to start all over again. She also claims that Gabby has been sick every time we bring her home which is total bullcrap. We are very clean people. She just tries to come up with every excuse possible not to let us see her. I'm so sick of all this shit.

Anyway, I just had to get all that out. Hooray for baby mama drama.

Rant complete.
