So my birthday is officially over... I think. I thought it was over last week.
My dear friend Fran missed my birthday when she was in Banff and wanted to take me out for lunch on Wednesday, two days ago, how could I say no? We had a great lunch at Edo and it was so great to visit, she even gave a beautiful Stella and Dot bracelet!! Fran is a great friend and I love hanging out with her, she is so fun.
Then my friend Marianne called to check up on me and realized she missed my birthday too and took me out for lunch yesterday with our other friend Kim. We went to Kelsey's and had wings and the Buffalo Chicken sandy... ohhhh so good. I have really great friends.
My actually birthday was great too! I went out for breakfast with Erin and her little guy to Perkins, I love breakfast and it was delish! I just love food when I don't have to make it, I think it tastes better. That just goes to show that I haven't cooked anything good in a long time. Although I did make pancakes at my SIL's house and thought they tasted like someone else made them ;).
Spencer had invited some friends over for dinner and ice cream cake the night of my birthday, which was awesome. Except that I made dinner, but at least he brought the cake. We had fun, ate, and played charades. Spence and Kali gave me some great gifts, so that made me even more happy, it was a great day. And I wore a birthday girl badge all day and strangers were saying "Happy Birthday" to me when I was out shopping, I loved it. When I picked up Kali from school the first thing she would say to me was "Happy Birthday Mom"... and she did it all week!!
Lastly, I am 36 weeks pregnant and getting ready to have a baby next month, or maybe this month who knows. My counting due date is April 4th or 5th, and my ultrasound date is the end of March. I just hope to have this baby before April 15th. That will keep me sane at least. I feel like my body is getting ready for this, I just have to finish preparing and wrap my head around being a mother of a baby again. I have been so selfish for the past few years since Kali is in school, time to change that mindset. Most likely I won't give it much thought and wait for it to happen and deal with it, that usually how I work anyways.
And Happy Birthday from us, too! So happy and excited for Baby Torrie to come out in the world!!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to use that line from now on: "I made pancakes and they tasted like someone else made them." AHAHAHA!! And everyone should wear a birthday badge on their birthday. That is awesome. Strangers wishing you happy birthday and everything! And you have Kali trained well to wish you happy birthday everyday for a week. I love you Jenn-you're so funny.
ReplyDeleteI love you, Jenn! You make me smile all the time. I am so glad you are my sister!
