Birthday, somewhere in the Thirties

My birthday was on a Sunday this year.  Which meant I didn't get my free food this year. But I guess I kinda did because my friend brought me dinner!  Well I invited them over for dinner, and then a few hours later I said, "Uh...it's 10 PM and we still haven't gone to the grocery store.  Do you have any food?" To which she said, "Yes! I will make the dinner!" pretty tacky of me, huh!  So she brought us baked ziti, salad, and peach cobbler. It was so delicious.  And we love their company.  Especially when they bail me out of making dinner! 
Also, Don cleaned the house for me and made me made me food throughout the day, so I got to be lazy the whole entire day! It was awesome!  Also, Don bought me this outfit:
I just informed him afterwards! He just asks, "Is that the outfit I bought you?"  And that's the way I like it.  I actually bought something made for a pregnant person.  You know it is much less depressing to shop in a maternity store when you are 29 weeks? (I am trying to forget) pregnant, as opposed to saying to yourself with normal people clothes, "Oh I bet I can fit into that...Nope! Can't even get it over my shoulders."

Chloe was more excited for my birthday than I was. She likes any excuse for a party. And cake.  And she made me a "keepsake box" out of a cereal box and Christmas wrapping paper to 'keep all my special things."  She is the best.

Friday night we went out to eat at Manuels and then came back for some chocolate cake.
So I had a pretty great birthday weekend. The weather even had a huge cool down!  We went to the young women fundraiser Saturday night which was held outside, and I was actually chilly! It was a small miracle.
Anyway, I am grateful for wonderful family and friends who made me feel special on my birthday!
