My Cup Runneth Over...

Today (April 2) I celebrated my thirty (gulp!) third birthday!
Last night was dinner & cake with my parents, brother, Brian, & Blake. It was a traditional Griswold celebration with the blowing out of candles, then a re-enactment of the blowing out of candles because of "camera malfunction".
For my actual birthday, I spent the day with Blake. It was a typical day with feedings, burpings, diaper changes, & naps. But I swear he smiled at me more today than he ever has. It's as if he knew it was my birthday & was giving me little gifts all day long. My mom (LaLa) came over in the evening to watch Blake so that I could meet Brian for dinner & a movie. We had a delicious dinner at PF Chang's & then saw the movie, "Taken". It was a great night. After we left the movie, Brian presented me with a very sweet card. I also got a heart shaped necklace from him & matching earrings from Blake. I was so surprised & touched! I have a wonderful husband & family. Last year at this time, we didn't even know about Blake & how our life was soon going to change forever! Now, we can't imagine our lives without him! I am truly blessed!
