Oh, and I totally am 24 now

I forgot to mention this in my last post, but I'm 24 now. My birthday was on the 15th and although Mike and I aren't quite up to taking the baby out to dinner or some big fancy date, it was still very enjoyable. Mike stayed home from work and helped me take care of the baby- I don't think I had to change one diaper. My mom also brought over some treats for me in the morning (egg and milk free, hooray!) and then my mother-in-law came and picked me up after Mike left for class and we got food from Cafe Rio and watched a movie at their house until Mike came and picked me up. Mike gave me most of my present at midnight of my birthday (it's a tradition with us- we both hate to wait to give each other things) and I watched most of said present the next day. He got me some movies I really love (Emma, Ever After, and Pursuit of Happyness) and since I've been doing a lot of movie/show watching lately, it was perfect. We celebrated with my family on Saturday, which was really fun. My mom made my favorite dinner and came up with an awesome dessert that I could eat- being off eggs and dairy really limits your dessert options, but she made a lemon pie that was awesome. Overall, it was a most excellent birthday. I'm excited to stretch it out even a little longer, since Mike and I will still go out to dinner for it, we'll just wait until we're on a more regular schedule with the baby.
