WOW, has it really been that long since I posted something on here? Well, let me just catch you up on what's been going on with us!
Gunnar turned 4 on the 27th. I can't believe my baby is growing up! Seems like just yesterday I was experiencing the craziest of labor circumstances to bring that big baby into the world! He really reveled in the fact that he was so special all day long. Birthdays are kinda my thing, and I think I've passed it on to him too! So, the next day I turned the biggie: 30. For several years now I have realized that birthdays are like any other day, and it's more true now that I have 4 kids. I was still changing diapers, cleaning up my house, etc. However, I did prepare the older ones by making them call me "birthday girl" and making them sing to me. I even made the babies sing to me, which they just thought was so funny. We went out to dinner that night as a family, which we've never done before, then I went to hunt for a new pair of shoes at the mall. No one carried the type I wanted, so I debated over the color for a day and ordered a pair. I hated the color I got, so I'm stuck between ordering a dark red or a dark purple. I swear, the older I get the more discerning I become (I like that word better than "indecisive" or "picky"), and my post purchase dissonance becomes worse. I can make decisions at work or at home in a snap, have no problem making decisions regarding the clothes my kids wear, but when it comes to me?? Forget about it....
We had a joint birthday party at my parents house this past Saturday, and for the first time since Gunnar was born I asked for two individual cakes. I felt turning 30 was a big enough occasion to warrant my own cake, and I was absolutely thrilled with how Gunnar's cupcakes and my cake turned out! Gunnar got a ton of "Star Wars" toys, since those are about the only thing he plays with, and I will enjoy the goodies I received as well! Thanks to everyone who sent birthday wishes to us both, we really appreciate it! Hopefully I'll be able to get in another post or two by the weekend, until then, thanks for reading!
