Whenever we go out to eat, the only thing Sweetie eats is french fries. She calls them "fre' fries." So I didn't even order her anything, she just shared my fries.
Captain Adorable chowed down on some cantaloupe.
Don't you love how they have you wear balloons for your birthday? Not embarrassing at all.
And I love it when places give you free ice cream for your birthday.
If you want to draw a lot of attention when you go places, take 5 kids under the age of 4 (or 7 kids when the older ones are out of school). We ALWAYS get comments. Good thing Babydoll (remember how I am still babysitting her?) is so good when we are out places. She just drifted off for me.
I made Jeana a funfetti cake, too busy to make anything exciting.
The weekend before, we babysat their kids overnight so Fernando could surprise Jeana with a night away. It's really nice to give that option to them and to anticipate some reciprocation!! I am sooo glad that Jeana moved here and that we get to spend so much time together and help keep each other sane with all our little ones! I love the late night shopping runs, the smoothies and random outings. I love having another mom watching my kids when I go out on dates with Handsome Husband and returning to a house cleaner than I left it. I love having another adult to talk to during the day. I love being able to leave my kids with Jeana when I need to run to an appointment and being able to return the favor. I love being able to send my kids over to play or the fact that I want to go "play" as much as the kids do. It can get crazy sometimes, so I love being able to just walk home if the kids have had enough of each other. I love sharing meals and jewelry and clothes with Jeana. Happy Birthday, Jeana! I love having you as my best friend!
