Happy Birthday...to me

Today is my birthday. Even though I'm old enough to know better, I still wake up hoping that something will make the day extraordinary. Well, this morning, Jack and Spence didn't get that memo. It started off well with the boys playing in their room after they woke up - it was very cute. Things quickly dissolved to fighting over trains and then arguing about getting dressed. All good fun.

Friends at work helped me celebrate with a gathering and cupcakes which was very nice (and it is really funny to have people sing to you at work).

When I got home from work, this lovely surprise greeted me on our door.


I also had a lovely flower arrangement from my mom, many nice voice messages from family and friends, a plethora of birthday wishes on Facebook, and a yummy cupcake that I split with two of my most favorite people. To top it off, Spence sang a rousing and custom rendition of the birthday song. Now for you to enjoy.


This weekend, Justin is treating me to a night out on the town and a spa day. Sounds like heaven!

Mother's Day weekend, we planned a little trip out of NYC. We headed to Lancaster, PA - close enough for a night away, but far enough away to feel very different than NYC. The weekend was a lot of fun (and honestly a lot of work). All in all, the boys did well. Highlights below: Dutch Wonderland Lancaster is home to several tourist things. We picked one: Dutch Wonderland family amusement park. My cynical self really doubted that we'd enjoy this experience. I was worried that it would be cheesy. But I was wrong. Well yes, it was kind of cheesy because it was a family amusement park. But it was so fun. The place was very geared to families with young children. The rides are categorized by height so it's easy to know what rides your kids can ride. Jack tried several rides: big trucks, bulldozers, leaping frogs, the monorail. He even drove a car! He had a really good time. Spence was a good sport as there wasn't much for him to do. Maybe next year. Justin felt right ...
