A Very HAPPY Birthday

Turning 31 was better than expected. I didn't know how life could be better on my birthday. I have an amazing husband, adorable 2 year old son, and a healthy baby growing inside of me, which is another boy. Life is good!

I woke up at 4:40 am, to the house festivally decorated with streamers and balloons. The whole house, all levels. A very nice surprise! I was instructed by Joe that I could not enter the living room after 5:00 pm. After school JoJo and I layed on the couch and watched 2 episodes of Sesame Street. I usually won't let him watch two hours of TV, but I figured, why not, it's my birthday. Which he was fully aware of. He kept saying "Mommy it's your birthday" more like a question, then a statement.

A little before 6, Joe handed me a message in a bottle type of invitation. After retrieving the invitation inside I unscrolled it to read about Bernadette's Birthday Beach Blanket Bash, it was being held in my very own living room, and given by My Boys. As I walked into our living room there were beach towels all over the floor, inflated palm trees, beach balls, crabs and a bucket and shovel (which will make it's way into JoJo's sandbox). I was given a lei to wear and an ice cold lemonade drink displayed in a palm tree cup with a paper umbrella sticking out of it. A delicious dinner followed, picnic style on the floor and the dinner celebration was topped off with a perfect rendition of Happy Birthday around a yummy carrot cake, which Joe also baked! Yeah, it was a great birthday!!!

A very special year 31 is going to be. I will give birth to my second son! Life is great!
