I turned 35 on Thursday, May 3rd.
My day started with terrific hugs and kisses from my three boys. Then Matt lovingly sent me back to bed to enjoy an extra hour of sleep (sigh - wonderful!). As I ate breakfast I opened my birthday card from Matt. Inside were words that made me cry, a Jamba Juice gift card to use this summer (yum!), and what I'm most excited about - the gift of Thursday evenings to myself this month!! (One Thursday night includes a date night with Matt while PopPop and Nana babysit the boys.)
Out the door we later went to the bi-monthly MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) meeting at church while Matt went to work. At MOPS my tablemate/friend Beth announced to all the Moms present that it was my birthday that day. About 5 or 10 minutes later a box of 12 mini Cupcake Royale cupcakes was given to me. I later learned the cupcakes were delivered from my thoughtful husband for me to share with my girlfriends.
There were some mini cupcakes left over so after the boys and I returned home for lunch, we dived in and enjoyed one mini cupcake each. Below are pictures of David's enjoyment of his chosen cupcake.
For dinner Matt treated us to Pagliacci pizza and salad (I loved not having to plan dinner!), plus a regular sized Cupcake Royale cupcake for dessert.
I decided it was probably about time to post a mid-pregnancy photo, so here I am with my birthday cupcake at almost 26 weeks along (out of 40 weeks which is August 11th). YIKES! I'm sure I'll start hearing "you're due any day now, right?" But that's okay -- you just continue to grow getting big and healthy baby girl!!
