Happy Birthday to ME!

33! Can you believe it? As of 5:16am, eastern time, I am THIRTY THREE years old. I don't feel a day over 32! :)

This morning started off well, the kids woke up and we all snuggled in bed together. I love the mornings with my kiddos and hubby. Although it still amazes me how such little people can take up so much space on a bed! I had woken up early and then crawled back in. Then, without me really knowing, I fell back asleep. When I woke up, it was 10am! Wowsers! Lee was kind enough to get the kids out and let me have a nap! Such a great guy- and apparently I needed it. 

We don't have church until 1pm, so we got the kids ready and took a few pictures. Amy is wearing a dress MeMe/Papa got her for her birthday. It was so cute on her and she loved it. 

Lee was behind me doing heavens knows what to get them laughing this hard. 

So we were all ready for church, I was having a great hair day.... and boom- Amy threw up. Right in the carpeted entryway of our room. Will and Lee both had a stomach virus last week and I guess Amy was next on it's list (although thankfully neither of them threw up!) Lee had to do some clerk stuff at church, so I stayed home with the kids. I was kind of bummed out about it. I had been cooped up all week and really wanted to get out and see everyone. Plus, yes, I'll admit it, I actually like going to church.  

So the next 4 hours were spent with me and Amy on the air mattress (Will was around too, he wanders). Let's see, we watched "Cheaper by the Dozen," about 6 episodes of the old cartoon "Heathcliff," and an episode of the tv show "Psych." We used our Netflix subscription cost today! Lee then had some more stuff to do, so he was later than usual. Thankfully I had a freezer meal to cook. The twice baked potatoes, and they were delicious! 

Birthday girl at her finest

the "sicko"

Actually, Amy was fine all day. Never even seemed sick. So I just figured that something didn't settle right this morning. This evening I was talking to Mom on the phone and boom- she threw up again. {insert SIGH here} The poor thing. The funny thing about it was it was in the exact same spot as this morning. Lee walked in and exclaimed, "IN THE SAME SPOT???!!!!" It made the whole situation kind of funny. So we tucked her in bed and hopefully she'll feel better in the next few days.

We were going to go out to dinner tomorrow night, but we'll postpone that for now. That's ok, we'll celebrate eventually. I'm also saving/putting any birthday money received towards a fancy new camera. Hopefully that will come in the next few months.

So that was my birthday... it consisted of an air mattress, movies and puke. :) If anything- we'll definitely be cleaning our carpet this week! Which YAY- I've been meaning to do that since we moved in!
