Birthday Highlights

Yesterday I turned 29. For some reason, that number seems so much older than 28 :) Next year will be the big one!


The birthday fun started on Saturday when Elissa & Rosanna took me for a shopping day at Metrotown. It was great to have a day away from the kids and the shopping trip was very successful - new maternity jeans and some cute new tops. Plus, the girls brought me into lululemon and told me to pick out a pair of pants for my birthday! So exciting. I love the pants and they just might be my best friend during this pregnancy (and after).

Yesterday was my day to babysit Caleb and all three kids gave me the best birthday present ever by having super LONG naps! I even managed to get them all sleeping at the same time for at least an hour. Long enough to talk to both my parents on the phone without interruption!

Last night was our regularly scheduled clothing group (a group of us girls who do kind of a clothing swap). We decided to go out for supper together at Red Robin (so I could get the mushroom burger I've been craving!) and then have dessert at Rosanna's. I ended up with two desserts since the staff found out it was my birthday and brought me a free sundae. They also made me stand on my chair while they sang. Good thing there wasn't a weekend supper crowd :)

Looking pretty hot there Jamie (like as in the look not the temperature...that will come!)
Happy Belated Birthday...you may feel old but having 3 kids and not even 30 yet..that seems pretty young to me :)
When's the big move?
Hope all is well

Happy Birthday. I am glad you had a fun day of shopping and getting together with friends.
You look great and I love that top too.
Jamie, once would never guess that you will be 30 next year. You look great for being 29 and having 3 kids.
I remember being young and thinking 30 year olds were so old looking. Now that I am nearing that age I realize that 30 year olds don't look as old as I once thought they did!

We do have a zoo pass. I wrote about it a few posts down. Our organization gave us money for the families since we all didn't go on the team building hiking trip. We put that towards the zoo pass.
How is Keziah liking the dog? Isaiah missed his dog today at day care since he had a hard time falling asleep. The other teddy I brought didn't do. Hopefully he'll be okay until he's at your place next. :0)
