| Brandon loves strawberry cupcakes with vanilla frosting!!! |
This year, I took off a little extra time around my b-day, mostly to sepnd more time with the kids/family and to get some stuff done around the house. Unfortunately, Mason and Kevin came down with a stomach bug on Friday, which meant an overhaul of my plans. Which I have to say I am adapting to well, as I have realized since having children, nothing is on my time table anymore!
So, instead of the family going to the Children's Museum, Brandon and I had some quality time together on Friday. We had a blast, once we found a place to park! Have I ever mentioned how I hate driving around downtown...one way streets, needing coins for metered parking, and trying to remember where the parking garages are (since I never have coins in my car). Brandon really had fun exploring everything and loved the fact that he was allowed to touch everything (which we were informed of upon arrival and immediately made me question when was the last time they santized "everything").
My little helper and I made my (and now his) favorite cupcakes, strawberry of course, and immediately ate one right after they cooled off. Strawberry cupcakes have been my favorite since I was a child and I never seem to get tired of them and since Brandon is not a fan of chocolate, he couldn't get enough, I think he ate two or three Saturday.
The rest of my birthday weekend was spent recovering from illness and planting flowers in the front courtyard at my request. Brandon helped me plant a few flowers while Mason mostly played in the dirt, occasionally eating handfuls and spitting it back out. Overall, we had a good weekend and we even able to clean up the garage, give the boys haircuts, and have Grandpa over for dinner on Sunday....nothing I love more than re-organizing our clutter!!!!
