65 Degree's In March...We'll Take It!

Long Day Today!

Today, we spent the day outside! It felt great~ We're hoping this "Spring" like weather is here for good (even though we are very familiar with Michigan weather) we can still hope!

Friends Before They Were Born

Lilly has many friends that were already her friend before she was born... does that make sense? Well, let me explain. When I was pregnant, I knew 10 other girls that were pregnant at the same time. They were either a family member or a friend. So, Lilly had many playmates before she was born. The unique thing about these friends, Sophie and Will is I've been friends with their mommy for 34 years. She was a friend of mine before I was born! And, we've been best friends since. If you ever here me talking about my friend, Julie, I refer to her as my cousin just because she's not only a friend, but she's family.
Sophie and Will came over this weekend to play with Lilly while Julie and Tony had things to do. It was so much fun to watch the kids all play. They played so well together. Will and Lilly are days apart and then Sophie is the oldest, turning 6 in the Fall. Lilly LOVED having someone over that enjoys dressing up in princess clothes just as much as she does. When they had to go, Lilly asked if they could come back and have a sleepover with her next time.

Coloring in our Jammies

In my bed (different Jammie's)

Ryan was gone Saturday for the day and night, which meant it was just Me and Lilly. We had a pretty lazy day. It was the first time in a while that I stayed in my Pj's until 1 in the afternoon, and it felt great! Lilly also enjoyed it, she was in and out of dresses, dance clothes and Pj's all morning! We did manage to get dressed and head out for a bit, but for the most part, we spent the day home. I think it's fair to say that our slumber party in my bed was her favorite part! We snacked on carrots and dip and watched TV. When she woke up the next morning, she was all smiles saying that she had so much fun! It's a special treat for her~ and me too.

Kids gotta Play

Today, we took Lilly to Kids Gotta Play. It's a great place for kids and even better that it's indoors and free! Lilly reminded me of this place yesterday, so I promised her we'd go.

Happy Birthday to Me!!

Headed to dinner to celebrate my birthday!

Aren't we silly?? We were getting ready to leave for dinner, I love Lilly's hand on her hip just like her momma!!

I turned 34 this week! I didn't feel old until my students sang happy birthday to me! An old tradition is clapping as they count up "are you one, are you two...." when they hit 27 and started cocking their heads and looking at me like wow keep going, it was at that moment I realzied that, yup, I am getting old! I may be getting older, but I feel fabulous! Getting old doesn't mean a thing, right??Ryan was the best husband this weekend. He took us out to dinner on the night of my birthday and then the next day he cleaned the house, brought me lunch and prepared dinner and made a cake. I came home from work and literally had to do NOTHING! It doesn't end there, he even did all the laundry! What a man! Lilly couldn't wait until my birthday party! She had her party dress on and was ready. My family came over and as always we had a great time! They spoiled me with gifts!
It was definitely a great birthday!
