Today was my birthday, and it was a great one! I was woken up by three different phone calls from people singing, "Happy Birthday!" and bombarded with texts. My mom took me to lunch at American Table (I love their cheeseburgers) and then we spent the afternoon shopping in Fort Wayne. The evening was spent at Austin's softball game. After the game though, Austin and Hadley celebrated my birthday with me!
Hadley helped me open up my birthday card, and she tried to eat it too!
...and then she helped me open my present. In my card I got a note from Hadley telling me that she wanted to order my Adidas sandals (I found some like the ones I had in High School that I LOVED), but she didn't know the size. I can't wait to get those ordered!
I think Austin was a little disappointed that he felt like he couldn't come up with something good to buy me for my birthday. I am VERY hard to shop for. What he doesn't know is that he is very good at paying attention to me and knowing me. Everything he buys me, no matter how simple or small, is usually something that displays a little bit of my personality or style. So, for my birthday present, he bought me Absolut and Kahlua. Now before you judge...Do you know what my favorite mixed drink is? Do you know the last time I had an adult beverage and relaxed? Probably not, but Austin does. I love you dear and I can't wait to enjoy a nice White Russian while relaxing on the boat tomorrow night!
I have truly had a "Happy Birthday!"
I'd say that's the best present a new mother could have! (Heehee) Something that everyone knows you miss just because you've been told that you CAN'T have any for who knows how long. And of course those White Russians. Mmmm. I'm coming soon to join ya!
