Happy Birthday to Me

Image

Yes, I'm turning 29 today. The big 29. Almost 30... but not quite.

I feel good today. Not as grumpy as I've been the last few days. Abigail is still as clingy as ever. But today, that's ok. I'm liking all the cuddles and kisses.

I slept in till 8:30am, and Abi slept in till 9:30am which meant I had a nice quiet morning to read birthday emails.

I had lunch with my mother-in-law and gran-in-law up at the local nursery, which was lovely. They have a little indoor cafe with play equipment next to it, so Abi was in heaven. She refused to eat anything for lunch, even TINY TEDDIES, and wanted to slide and run and climb. She is now quietly tucked into bed, drifting off to sleep before we head out to dinner tonight with my siblings at a family restaurant in Baulkham Hills.

Below is a photo from 1987. That's me on the left, my younger sister in the middle then my brother in white. This is how I remember birthdays. Although it wasn't mine, I just remember birthdays were the best thing on the family calender.

My sister and I don't even look possibly related in this photo. And my facial expression is awesome. I hope I look like that tonight at dinner.
