I celebrated my 27th birthday last Thursday on the 18th. I just can't hardly believe it! I still feel like Brian and I should be guarding at the City Pool or Megan and I should be eating in the McMindes cafeteria. My dad always says he may be in his 40s, but he still feels like he is 20. That is how I feel... I feel like I am 19 and living in the dorms. (Oh how I loved the dorms...Really!)
Anyway, back to the present... This birthday was a special one because it was the first birthday I was able to spend with my little guy. Who really isn't all that little...
(I love this picture! He seems so proud and is like, "These are my toys!"
Logan and I took a quick trip to Clay Center and I gave myself (and Brian) this gift...
After spending the day with Logan, Brian came home from work with the BEST Chinese food from Hyvee (we're partial to the Sesame Chicken)...
and something I haven't had forever...a DQ cake...oreo...
and THIS....!
So exciting! I know it isn't exciting to most people, but I am thrilled!
I also received some exciting gifts (and cards, calls, texts, and Facebook posts) from other family members....
A mani/pedi from my mother-in-law!
A travel jewelry case and necklace (from Hong Kong) and money from my father-in-law and Pam...
...a Premier Jewelry necklace and earring set from my mom...
...a one-of-a-kind gift from my dad...
...and the BEST gift from this guy...
He slept from 7:30pm to 5:30am, woke up and drank a bottle, and then went back to sleep until 8:30am! What is even more exciting about this is he did it three days in a row!! Let's hope he'll continue to be this nice...or at least this summer!
Overall, it was a fabulous birthday! So much has happened this year that I am grateful for! I expect every year from here on out will be marked with "Logan Milestones". I can't wait to experience them!
