Birthday, Grumpies, and Bubbles

Spring has finally made its appearance- though snow may be in the forecast for Sunday...we'll see what happens. We were able to enjoy the outdoors without bundling up or fear of being washed away. Izzy thoroughly enjoyed the ability to play with bubbles by herself and ride her train outside.

I celebrated my 25th birthday this week. Whohoo! I finally at least feel like an adult- though people still confuse me for a teen sometimes. Oh well, maybe the young genes will help me later in life. I had ok birthday. I spent the day at my parent's house up in Pentwater. Izzy was a major grump (she is cutting 4 canine teeth, I'd be grumpy too). She was such a mess that no one could enjoy her, and then I ended up being so tired and stressed that no one could enjoy me either- or vice a versa. Oh well, my mommy made me my favorite dessert- Boston Cream Pie!!! I got some nice gifts too. A new robe ($80 on clearance for $8- yeah for yellow dot sales!), travel coffee mug, and frames from hubby. Gift cards, Jelly Bellys, and Happy by Clinique from Paul's side of the family. Jewelry, a shirt, tupperware, and Dove Dark Chocolate!!!!! I'm hoping Paul and I will get out to celebrate on our own sometime soon- but with Izzy being such a pain, I wouldn't wish her presence on anyone! I keep telling her I'm going to ship her off to Timbuktu- oh well. I'll enjoy these precious moments when she actually wants me around all the time because in a few short years I'm sure it will all change!
