So today is my BIRFDAY!!!
It was a great day. I went to yoga class to start the day off right. After Ruthie got home from school it was time for a nap. I love taking naps the older I get. Once the girls woke up we ran a bunch of errands and then came home for my birthday dinner. On the menu: tilapia, baked potatoes, and broccoli. Yum!
Dessert was tiramisu and a chocolate brownie thing.
Next up, it was time for gifts! Ruthie could barely contain herself. As many of you know, I LOVE Christmas ornaments. Well, my birthday this year was the year of the ornaments. Ruthie picked out all of these.
The pink, glittery, high-heeled shoe ornament was her favorite. That girls loves high heels!! She frequently asks me why I don't wear high heels. Ummm, I'm a nurse honey. I wear unflattering scrubs and white, dorky shoes to work. :)
The best part of my birthday...going to the mall to shop FOR myself, BY myself. The only bummer was that I didn't have enough time to run to all the stores I wanted to. It was fun using my birthday money from my family to buy new clothes. I need a stylist and an endless supply of cash and then maybe I won't look like a frumpy mom!! hahaha
Wouldn't all that cash and a stylist be lovely! I wouldn't trade one night of a kid crying or one pair of mom jeans (not that I own any, just so you know) for any of our nights out in college. Oh I might be living in the memory once in a while but this life, this mommy thing is awesome! And you're not a frumpy mom, you're gorgeous! Love you my bestest best friend.
