Birthday

Today is my birthday and we had a lovely time celebrating.

I woke up to a living room filled with balloons. They were quite the hit.

Jack especially liked them.

He would throw them up in the air and say, "Surprise! Balloons!"

We went out for a celebratory brunch. Although it was a very different experience than the last time we went out, it was still pretty fun.

Shawn and I waiting for our food.

Daddy and Jason waiting for food. Jason
was so hungry he was chewing on Daddy's cheek!

Jack was all over his cup of milk. You'd think we never
gave him any at home or something. I guess he agrees
with what they say: Everything tastes better when you go out to eat. ;)

It looks as if we need a little more work on how to use utensils...

Jason ate a TON. He thinks going out to eat is awesome.

Shawn had fun, too. He's giving me a birthday kiss.

Notice how my plate is the only one mostly untouched?
Even Isaac's plate is clean (and gone)! Such is the life. :)

Jason found more to eat...

And did not want to be bothered. lol

A lemon smile for good luck.

This evening we went to the mall to see the Easter Bunny. That went amazingly well! (more on that later) The boys also got to play on the coin operated rides.

Shawn and Isaac went cruising around the mall while these two played.

Shawn was up for one more adventure. So...we...went to go through the automatic car wash! We are wild around these parts, I tell you!

We ended the evening with some singing and cake. As Jason reminded me several times, "This was the best birthday for you ever, wasn't it, mommy?"

He's right. It was pretty great. :)
