The Ghost of Birthdays Past
I'm 31 today. I never thought I'd be this old. Or this old + somebody's mom! This year is incredibly low key. I had lunch at home with David and Georgia. We had red velvet from Crave cupcakes. Tonight David and I are going to dinner. The only bottle service (#29) will be for Georgia!
In lieu of something fancy, like Reef (#29), I think we'll try a new Tex-Mex place which, coincidentally, is owned by Bryan Caswell of Reef.
Instead of taking the afternoon off to buy myself a new handbag & shoes (#29 & #30), I took Georgia for her four month doctor appointment. My, how life has changed!
Rather than waking up sad because I don't have a baby (#29), I woke up to my very own baby laughing while her Daddy sang happy birthday.
Instead of celebrating a new pregnancy with (fake) champagne (#30), I'm celebrating with my daughter as she rolls over (both ways!) all around her bedroom floor. I honestly never knew things could and would change so much in just one year!

awww. I teared up. I'll admit things have changed so MUCH and I never knew before how awesome all that stuff you listed (from our "new" lives) could actually be. THIS is what life really is about. Isnt it just awesome? Glad your low key b-day was awesome!
Ah, we share the same birthday! And this, too, is my first birthday as a mom! It definitely was a different birthday, but the best one I've had so far! Nothing like spending time with your baby on your birthday. A new favorite thing of mine!
