Happy Birthday - It's a Big One
I'm turning 30 today. A big milestone, but a small day in comparison. I'm hanging out with my baby all day, then Todd and I will eat a nice dinner here at home, ordered from Fresh Direct (a cassoulet). It feels kind of pathetic after all the fabulous places I've eaten and all the options available to me. I just have no one to leave my 2-month-old with, and wouldn't feel that good about leaving him anyway. My parents are visiting in three weeks and I think I'll make them babysit while we go out one night. I've got some places in mind.
I am making Todd bring home a cake from Cupcake Cafe, which is just a couple doors down from his office. Considering the proximity he should bring me treats all the time. Their sweet potato doughnuts are my favorite.
Maybe the cassoulet will be fabulous, the cake decadent. It doesn't matter much to me as I sit here with my new baby sighing, cooing and smiling in his sleep. But I'll let you know.
Update: The cake in question;

Happy Birthday to you! I have a best friends who's birthday is today too. She is 44 today.
I know your situation because I am in the same one - have a son who we don't leave to any babysitter. Since we moved here, we haven't gotten one local babysitter. Only when his grandma visits to we go out anywhere without him. He is 9.
My birthday was spent at home too - I made my own birthday cake - an Ebingers Black Out Cake - and my hubby brought home chinese food and flowers.
So, happy birthday! I hope hubby comes home with really good goodies from Cupcake Cafe and some flowers or a great gift.

Happy Birthday! It's hard to believe, isn't it? I remember when we turned 14 and 15! I hope you had a great day :)

Happy Birthday - I hope it was a great one. A friend of mine used to tell me that "Life Begins at 30" and I really do think she was right. Now that I am the ripe old age of 31 I can say that you are in for a fun year!
