For my birthday...

Gary treated me very well. About 15 minutes after I posted how I just wished he would do something special for me, he walked in the door with a dozen red roses and an ice cream cake. He also told me we could order out from anywhere and he would pick it up. So, we got Outback. Yummy. It was really nice to pick up a good meal like that and be able to eat it at home. So much easier than going to the restaurant with the kiddos. Plus, we didn't have to pay for Alyssa's hot dog and applesauce...LOL!

My birthday was really nice though. It came and went as usual and now I am just another year older. I got to spend it with my three favorite people in the whole world and that is what is really important. (But I did love getting the flowers, it was a wonderful surprise!!)

Needless to say, my diet has been shot this week. I am even too nervous to weigh myself this week and I don't even want to post on my other blog. These guilty feelings, but all I keep saying is "It's my birthday week, it's OK"...

My work friend didn't end up having the baby on my birthday. She went nowhere with dilating, and Thursday morning (5/4) her baby's heartrate started to drop. She went in for an emergency c-section. He was born on May 4th at 11 (something) am and weighed 6 pounds something. I know terrible. I can't remember the exact details. He was born on my nephew's 2 year birthday though, so it is still very special!! Congrats to them!!

I am down to 3 weeks left of maternity leave. Where in the heck did this time go?? Morgan just had her 2 month birthday yesterday. It is already flying by way faster than I want it to. I think she is doing better on her new formula. Now the only time she gets real fussy is when you are not holding her. So yeah, she wants to be held ALL.OF.THE.TIME! At least now when you hold her, she calms down. Before there was no consoling her.

I'm not weighing in either this week. NO WAY! The weekends are still creating a problem with us eating BAD! Always some party to go to and bad food to eat (I mean good food but bad food, ya know?).

Glad you had a good b-day!

Happy birthday! Glad to hear your birthday was filled with surprises and people you love!

I'm so glad to hear that Alyssa is doing great on her new formula. Alexa is doing much better herself. The only time she cries is when she wants to be held too. I know I shouldn't spoil her, but I just can't help it...LOL
