Ideas?

I'm trying to figure out how to celebrate my baby.

In a short 9 days, it will be the 10th and it will have been a year since my due date.

I'm supposed to have a one year old...I'm supposed to be celebrating my adoreable one year old son with all of my friends and family.

All I want is to be a Mom..to make my husband a daddy. And it kills me that that hasn't happened yet.
We're still trying, but it doesn't make this any easier.

I was wondering if anyone out there could give me some advice or ideas for how to celebrate the day a little bit. I really don't want to go through the whole day sad. I thought about releasing balloons or making a cake, but I think my husband has to work which means I'll most likely be alone for the day....

I need to do something...or I'll go crazy.

I miss you my little monkey. <3
