So as of this morning, I’m finally 28 years old! It’s an even year so its bound to be a good year, right!?
The day started with Miles wanting formula (sippy) around 5 am… Lucky for me, he went back to bed until about 6:15 am. While I got ready for the day, Nate played with and changed Miles. I opened a few fabulous gifts from Nathan (secretly a great shopper), shared a blueberry waffle with Miles, and shuffled my stuff to head out the door.
Meanwhile, Miles played with my cell phone, playing the music and dancing with his elbows (see previous blog for a visual). When the music stopped, Miles lost his temper and shot a beautiful right hook right into Cooper’s water dish. How disappointing! I would have snapped a photo, but my concern was directed towards the phone instead of the blog at that instant. Nathan retrieved the cellular device and shook out as much water as possible. Over the course of the day, the phone dried out and is now working at about 90%. Good enough for me!
Work was ok, but I ended up leaving early as Miles was having stomach/teeth issues. Though it was not the ideal ‘leaving’ situation, I had been trying to think of a reason to leave a little early. I was actually able to play with Miles for an extra 2 hours. That’s what I needed!!
When Nate came home, he swept Miles and I off to a great dinner at the Cheesecake factory. Miles’ moodiness kicked in. Nate and I took turns pacing in the hallway with him and eating our dinners. While Nate was pacing, I was able to talk to the businessmen next to me. I ended up explaining how Nate just wanted to take me out for a decent dinner on my birthday, but Miles apparently wanted us to celebrate his presence instead.
Finally, Miles fell asleep on Nate’s shoulder allowing Nathan to sit with me to enjoy the last few minutes of my birthday meal. The business guys showed off their iphones to Nathan (bad idea!!) and then secretly paid part of our bill. At the very least, it was great to see that decent people visit New York !!
When we got home, we put Miles to bed and then had a lovely cake that Nate picked up on his way home. Didn’t Nate do a fantastic job? It was really good!
Ohh.. take a look at Nate’s find!! The cake is sitting on the new addition to our kitchen. It was in the free-for-haul pile on the dock. It was in GREAT shape. We may just have to keep it…. :)
Thanks, Nathan, for a lovely birthday!!
