ok fine. i am 29.

my birthday was almost a month ago. i turned 29. it was a ca-razy day. wanna hear about? oh good, cause i am going to tell you about it! i woke up and started crying. i don't know why. maybe it was because i wasn't feeling very well, or maybe because i turned 29.
and that is old. old. old.
i went into the kitchen to find a wonderful birthday poster that evan makes for me every year. i smiled and then i got the boys dressed and got them some breakfast. i took a little time out to go and throw up, and then i started to cry. again. cause who wants to be throwing up on their birthday?
so then, still in my jammies and wearing mis-matched flip flops (one was evan's, one was mine!), the boys and i piled in the card, which took a while cause i couldn't find any shoes for orion and merrick so i had to carry them one by one, and we took conner to school!
and then i threw up again once we got home. and then while i was in the bathroom i heard voices, freaked out a little, and then realized that it was nana (evan's mom). she had come over to surprise me and take the boys for awhile so i could rest. so then of course i started to cry. because that was just so nice and exactly what i needed since i wasn't feeling well at all. they left, and then i cried some more, and then took a much needed nap.
much. needed. nap.
side note: i got so many phone calls that morning that i didn't answer because i was embarrassed i was crying so much! pregnancy does so many weird things to me. especially excessive crying. i hope i am over that phase soon!

then, my sweet sister-in-law camila and my mother-in-law marlena got babysitters for all 6 little men and we went out to lunch. just us girls. it was great. so very great.
and once evan got home, my day was going much much better. especially since he had a super awesome present for me! he got me a guitar...something i have wanted for quite a long time. i was so excited...i started to cry! i have been trying to practice every other day or so. and am still awful, but am excited to get much, much better!

then that friday evan had a birthday party with family and friends for me, which we didn't get any pictures of. but trust me...it was so fun.
thanks so much to everyone that made my 23rd 29th birthday so totally awesome!
