I'm 28!

Wow! I can't believe I am 2 yrs. away from 30! It just seems impossible! I am actually a little nervous about getting to 30! There are times I feel like I can still do all the things I use to do, but then there are times I am like wow how did I ever do those things! I know I have had 2 kids in 3yrs. so my body isn't in the best shape! I am working on that! I do believe I will be back to running before long! (I just hate that my bum jiggles so much)!

Celebrating my birthday is always lots of fun. I'm not big on a lot hoopla or anything. Just keeping it nice and simple works great for me. Probably, the best present was having a nice dinner at The Keg Steakhouse on Wednesday. It was just Byron and me! I think that was Jackson's first time staying with his Nana and Papa! YAY! At the beginning I was nursing so we just didn't leave him. Then around 5 mos. I would leave him with a bottle, but in no time he just realized I wasn't there and would just cry! So it wasn't fun for him or Nana & Papa. Now, that he is mobile I think it has helped tremendously. Also, he eats other foods and he is on the bottle now! It was so nice to have a couple of hours with my hubby! I know it meant a lot to Nana and Papa just having Jaycee and Jackson!

For my birthday, Byron got me new Rachael Ray pots and pans! I was so happy! The ones that I had were from my college days! So YAY! Then I got a dozen red roses and some chocolate candy! From family in Oklahoma I received money, which is always nice! My sis got my PJs from Victoria's Secret. Phil and Amanda got me a gift card to Chili's! Which they aren't up here, but as soon as we step off the plane in OKC I will be sprinting to a Chili's! Then Andy and Marilee got me some very fun and stylish jewelry, a really soft leopard blanket, a ring holder, and a new 3 position candle lighter. Also, Marilee cooked a fabulous meal. We had Lasagna. Which is at the top of my lists of favs! My absolute favorite dessert CHERRY PIE! She knows me so well, and I really appreciate that she cares for me that much to make my day extra special for me!

There is no stopping the birthday every year, but when you have family that spoil you I guess getting older isn't too terribly bad! So Thank you all for making me feel special! I love you!
