It was my birthday last week and my mom and sister, Tyne, flew out to see me! It was so fun having them here for a week. We took no pictures together because, well, we don't think of those things. My mom paid for me to get my hair done and her and Tyne both bought me some shirts (I haven't been able to have new clothes FOREVER). We did lots of stuff together like make jam, pick out material for the kids' Halloween costumes, go to IHOP for breakfast, and one night Daniel stayed home with the kids so we could go to dinner and do some window shopping at the outdoor mall. My mom and Tyne also watched the kids the night of my birthday so Daniel and I could go out. We went to dinner and then he bought me an exercise bike. I have been wanting one because I need to exercise more and my rheumatologist said that a stationary bike is best for my joints. We found a real cheap one at Wal-Mart. It was a great week and I miss them so much!
This birthday has made me feel older. I finally feel like I am not 18 anymore. I mean, I hope I am a lot more mature then I was at 18, but even with that I still felt no different then I did 10 years ago. I am now starting to feel like I am old enough to have 3 kids. Maybe its the spider veins in my legs or the endless amounts of stretch marks from having kids or that all my joints hurt including my toes... I am very happy with where I am in my life so getting older is a good thing.
Staucie and Tyne made my Birthday sign.

Bensen is
climbing everything, but he is not very stable.
He
climbed into his toy box.

Staucie insisted that it was
SNOWING so her and Parker bundled up.I am pretty sure it was over 90 degrees outside :)
