old fogey

I hit the big 2-7 yesterday.

All the days leading up to it I couldn't seem to get excited.

I felt this same way when I was pregnant with Lo and turned 24.

It must be pregnancy hormones or the fact that I am huge in the midsection 

so shopping for clothes is less fun than normal 

and what other gifts does a grown woman get if not clothing?

But you know what, it was a really great day.

We spent our afternoon with friends eating lunch and playing at the park.

Then when Cory got home from college I had a perfect family celebration.

Delicious dinner, tasty ice cream cake, a whole lotta reading 

and NOT a lick of cleaning.

Cory and Lo spoiled me rotten:)

All day Lo would get all excited and say,

'It's our birthday mom!'

So she had to help me with the candle blowing out and such. 

My favorite gift was the watch band Cory got me because my original was hammered.

Either that or the Belle pez dispenser from Lo...

And for posterity purposes,

this is what I looked like the day I turned old:)

p.s- when I am 27 and 10 weeks old, I am going to have a new baby.

HUH???

10 weeks until this little toots makes her grand entrance.

Nutso.
