Birthday Bliss

I had a nice, fun and relaxing birthday this year. I always enjoy my birthday because it's the one day a year I can boss around my family and get away with it (ha ha). Cirdan started the morning by giving me some beautiful flowers, balloons and a card. He then went and got me a newspaper and some Starbucks. My favorite! The day was spent watching football and enjoying the day with my family. My friend Kristel stopped by with some of her kids to give me a balloon and a Seahawks Christmas ornament. They know we love our Seahawks! My visiting teacher also stopped by with a gift...so thoughtful of her! Our friends Hailey and Brett also came by with a plate of brownies. I have wonderful friends!! We had my family over that evening for pot roast, prime rib, carrots and mashed potato's. YUM!
My dad made my birthday cake (including the icing) and my mom decorated it. The cake was moist and the icing turned out perfect. I was really impressed! Didn't know he was such a good cake maker. The decorating was cute...my mom has cake decorating skills.
Can't believe I am 31!!!

Playing Wii...

Kaiya worked on a birthday present for me for for about an hour. Here is the finished product...

Cirdan got me an awesome birthday present. A TREADMILL!! I used it tonight for the first time and I am pretty sure I am going to be super sore tomorrow but it felt GREAT. I have wanted one for at least 2 years and with a newborn I was getting worried about when I would be able to go to the gym so the treadmill will help! Now to lose this pregnacy weight!
