birthday

yesterday was my 36th birthday and my daughters 2 month birthday. 2 of my good friends came to visit. my son and hubby made me a cake. there were many balloons and i got 2 gifts that i was wanting muchly.

:: the first--the new Duran Duran album. album titles and artwork have never been their forte in my opinion. but i'm psyched to have it none-the-less.

:: the second--a book i have borrowed from the library 3 times in the last year, so i'm totally jazzed to finally own it!

the best gift of all? my sweet, 2 month old babe continues to sleep really well. nothing like her brother. thank GOD. if she was, this mommy'd be in serious dire straits.

so, im a pretty happy birthday girl!

we're sleeping!

there is much joy in the house.

the baby sleeps.

she sleeps from 7 or 8pm until 4 or 5 am with only *one* feeding in between.

there are nightly happy dances going on in our living room. hubby and i have actually had time together. we sit on the couch all giddy that our kidS, plural, are asleep AT THE SAME TIME-- UPstairs.

and we're down stairs enjoying a slice of apple pie and watching shows on DVD! it's amazing. it's awesome.

it's going to keep up, right?

last night i told her she'd get a car on her 16th birthday if she keeps it up. yes, i do love my sleep.
