Yesterday, I turned 36 years old. I was supposed to go to Disneyland with my old roommate, Rebekah and her kids, but alas my ankle injury prevented that from taking place. Instead, I went to work and had a very nice day. One of my co-workers made Frito Pie in honor of the Footloose Trailer (yes, there is a Frito pie appearance). Someone sent me some yummy chocolate chip cookies and another person sent me this beautiful bouquet of flowers!!! I received several cards with birthday wishes. Overall a low key day but it was very nice at the same time. It doesn't' always have to be a big blow out or an Alice In Wonderland party. hehehe
When I got home from work hubby took me to a nice Italian dinner where we heard a piano player play oldies but goodies in a very Soprano's type scene. The restaurant was decorated in a way that it felt very old world, very New York, very Italian. It was nice to have dinner with hubby and when the baby comes we will have to make time to have date nights.
Well, only two more days till I find out if my baby is a boy or a girl. I am so excited! Hubby and my MIL are going to be there with me so I hope the baby performs so the tech can get all the measurements it needs. I am praying my anatomy scan goes well and the baby has 10 toes, 10 fingers, a spin and all the necessary parts aka is healthy!! Also, baby needs to spread those legs so we can see for sure what they are made of!! ha ha.
I have been waiting for this day so I can buy paint and furniture for the nursery!!!! I have it all planned out on how I want it to look. I just need to have a garage sale sometime in August to clean out some of our big items in the nursery and in the bonus room, as I would like to make that back room nice for all he guests that are coming!!! My mom is going to try and get permission to come over Christmas which is very exciting since I haven't spent one single Christmas with her in the 14 years I have been in California. Why? Because I always had a job and shecurrently has a job where she is required to work on Christmas. This year, I could have a big family Christmas with both my family and Brian's! It could be very Norman Rockwell as I have always imagined.....or they could all kill each other! hahaha Then my brother rang and he says he and his family plan to visit sometime in the new year so the little cousins can meet. This is why I would like to make that back room really nice. But first the nursery!!!
