My Birthday

Sorry guys. I've kind of been out of my blogging mojo so unfortunately I've let 2 weeks slip by without updating. I'm happy to say however that I am back, at least for now. So anyway, a lot has happened in the past 2 weeks. It's amazing how you never really think about all the things that happen until you actually sit down and try to remember them. I guess I'll start off with only the best day of the year, MY BIRTHDAY! Yes, that's right, as you all know from my egg post my birthday was the 26th of February. I am happy to say that I am now 24. Crazy, I know. I had such a great birthday! First of all my amazing mother (who really should be the one celebrated) took me out to lunch at Popeye's (mmm... mmm.. did I mention that I have an infatuation with anything chicken, it's just so good). It was fun to get my mom's perspective on what it was like for her when we were growing up. Sometimes I guess I forget that my mom was once in the same situation that I'm in now. I know what you're all thinking "well duh, of course" but it's funny I've always viewed my mom as "my mom" and not as "a mom" (if that makes any sense). Anyway, after my lunch date with mom and *no kids* thanks to Andy who graciously watched both the kids so I could have some free time I went home and completely blew off cleaning the house so that I could spend some quality time with the kids. Later on Andy and I put the kids in the car and headed out with absolutely no idea where we were going or what we were doing but with just the idea that we were going to do something. Andy's mom and dad were totally awesome and ended up watching the kids for a few hours while we went out on a date. We first went to Baha Fresh and ate some delicious (once again chicken, can't get enough of it) burritos. And then as if we weren't totally stuffed already we decided to overindulge and get some ice cream from Cold Stone. Afterwards we watched "Be Kind Rewind". Usually I'm not really a big Jack Black fan but I really liked the movie. It was great! Overall I had such a terrific birthday. Thanks everyone for all the birthday messages. You're all very sweet. Now it's only T minus 355 days until the next one.
