"Mommy...we have a surprise for you!!" That's how I woke up the morning of my birthday. Cooper was so excited and proud to walk me to my surprise. He and his daddy, with sidekick Austin, had been hard at work that morning, while I got to sleep until 9:00 a.m.! This is what I saw in the kitchen, complete with a blueberry muffin with a candle.
After my boys sang Happy Birthday, the four of us sat down at that little table and had breakfast together. Can't imagine a better way to start my day.
After Philip headed off to work, the boys and I headed to the Arboretum where Cooper found a friend to play with. The little boy brought his bug catching gear and shared them with Cooper. Coop thought all the tools were pretty awesome and was in bug-catching heaven. He searched all over for all shapes and sizes of bugs.
Coop took a bug-hunting break for a few minutes so he could plow. Loved seeing the determination on his face to correctly push that huge "machine."
Austin had a great nap during our Arboretum outing!
That evening, we had dinner and delicious cupcakes at Gammi and Poppi's house. Coop was so excited about cupcakes, he plopped down on the floor immediately to enjoy that chocolatey goodness!
And I'm just realizing that the only picture of me on my birthday is one where I'm wearing totally awesome jammies. Oh well! I had a great birthday with my boys!!
