I'm good, and it's my Birthday!

So I thought I should make a happier post since my last post was so sad. I was just having a bad day last week... things aren't as bad as they seemed... I think. It is getting easier and I'm getting the hang of things. Both babies are asleep right now, but I hear Jillian starting to wake. Hopefully I can get a few things in before both wake up. Today is my birthday... yeah! Maybe that means when Jason gets home I'll have a break and get all night to myself without having to feed and change babies. That would be awesome! My mom is taking me to lunch (with the babies, but minus Derek) to Claim Jumper. Hopefully Jimmy and Jillian will sleep the whole time and we can have a very enjoyable lunch.

So now I am feeding Jillian and typing with one hand... but hey, I'm doing it! This is progress. Lets just hope James stays asleep until Jill is done.

Our weekend was great. Friday night Jason and I got to go to dinner. It was so nice! We went to Northwoods Inn... I love that place!

Valentines Day was very mellow. Most of us were sick with colds, so we just hung around the house. I did get a 2 hour nap, so that was he highlight of my day. Sunday was even better. Jason's mom took Derek for the day and that's always such a huge help! Thank you! They went over to Jason's sister, Cindy's house. Cindy has horses and goats and just got a baby bull... Derek loves it over there! He is such a big helper feeding the animals. And he won't stop talking about the baby bull. I want to go see it before its a big bull! I think he's pretty cute right now.






While Derek was with his grandma, Jason got some time to himself at the driving range. Then I got to go to the movies with my mom and my cousin, Jackie. We saw Confessions of a Shopaholic... great movie... very cute! Great clothes!

To prove I'm doing better, here is a picture Derek took. See, I have make-up on and I'm very happy! Derek thinks he's quite the photographer these days.


Here is my favorite outfit of Jillian's. I think it's just so girly!



OK.. so it only took me an hour and a half to make this post! Now it's time to go to lunch! Have agreat week!

You look great. It is amazing what sleep can do. I still can't wait to get my hands on those babies. Thalia is out of school all this week. Maybe next week- Of course, that depends on you we can come see you. We can always decide that day. Call me when ever you get a moment. And I love the outfit on jill bean ( such a cute nick name)

SO happy to read that things are better.
I will stop by one day this week, or those outfits won't fit the babies!!!!

So glad things are getting a bit easier. That is a cute outfit on Jilli Bean. And you look great in the pic of you and Jason on date night, and in the one Derek took! Make up on even, way to go.

Can't wait to see you tomorrow. You'll feel even better with fresh hair!!
