My 39th Year

Ok so I will cut to the chase!  Today is my birthday.  In our house, on your birthday you need do nothing.  You are the king or queen of the day.  It’s my favorite day.

Today started with my beautiful treasures making Momma some beautiful crepes from a recipe they found in the Organic Family Cookbook.  They came out more as crepes than pancakes but were absolutely delicious, except that I ate bacon not remembering that today is in fact Friday.

I pile of homemade cards is now sitting on my mantle and they are so sweet and some pretty funny.

 

this is Christopher spilling the mustard??  pretty funny thing to put on my card

I will be going out with Poppa tonight and leaving Lewis and Alexandra in charge of the crew.  This will be the first time I leave Matthew and am hopeful that he will drink breastmilk from a bottle which he has never ever seen before.  I know I should have tried it out firsthand but will be doing so before we leave tonight.  I have one baby bottle which I received in the mail will pregnant and put away in case something like this should show up.  A few of my babies upon being given a bottle instead of a breast highly protested and some gagged quite awfully so please say a little prayer for me?

I was given concert tickets on Christmas by Alexandra and Lewis and it happens to be to one of my favorite musicians and on my birthday.  Coincidence???  No, I don’t think so and I am beyond excited to go and see Natalie Merchant that I barely slept last night as all her songs passed through my brain all night.

So I will start my 39th year with the soundtrack of my 20’s and that to me is magical…

Oh and this year will be the second time I turn 39 : )  shhhh don’t tell !

    Tricia, I am so sorry I am late commenting on this post, just to say Happy Birthday! wow, 39 years young:-) I hope you had a wonderful day, and evening at the Natalie Merchant show! How amazing, because you totally LOOK like her!! I have been a fan of hers since her days with the Maniacs, and her origins in the upstate NY folk music scene.Have a great day, and hugs and kisses to you!!

    Happy Birthday!I know it's too late now, but Mathew is probably old enough for a sippy cup instead of bothering with a bottle (so similar, yet so different, to the "real" thing that it's so annoying for babies. Esp. if your sample bottle came with a newborn nipple). There are many types of sippy cups to choose from and each kid has their favourite. Or, you could even try drinking from a regular cup, if he's hungry enough 🙂
