Twenty-three weeks, 5 days

It’s my birthday!? I’ve had a pretty good day so far. :)? Last night went well, some moms stayed and some didn’t.? I ran the “Pin the Tail on Blue” game.? It was actually fun and went well considering no one had played it before. ;)? H was moderately well behaved.? Terri really outdid herself.? The party was amazing.? And there were a lot of little kids there.? Wow!

H didn’t come in with us during the night.? That was a vast improvement.? My little birthday present, I suppose.? We did lunch with K of course.? We had to wait for him for about 45 minutes.? He was in a meeting.? but we had a good lunch and fun was had.

I actually fired up my game this afternoon and started to make a Christmas house.? Amazing, huh?? I haven’t done that in a long time.

This evening the fun began. :)? K got home and gave me 2 bottles of cider.? Then he gave me this great wine rack to go with it.? it’s really awesome.? He also gave me a beautiful PURPLE journal that I just LOVE.? I can’t wait to use it.? I also got some wonderful earrings, the stone is mystic fire topaz.? It’s really pretty and set in white gold.? He really did a great job on presents.? Wow!? I can’t imagine what I’ll be getting for Christmas.? I feel like I already got it all!

After that, it was time for dinner.? We all drove over to Red Lobster.? I’d been craving lobster and steak for a while now.? My dreams were coming true. ;)? We got there after 6pm and there wasn’t too bad of a wait.? We had two coupons, one for $4 off 2 entrees and one for a free appetizer.? So we ordered some artichoke and lobster dip that came with chips.? Yum!!? Very tasty.? Plus, it was all about the lobster.? Too good!

I ordered a virgin margarita and they brought back this HUGE margarita glass, complete with lobster beads.? I began to wonder what people sitting around me would think.? A pregnant lady drinking what looks to be a very massive ALCOHOLIC margarita! Oh well, it was yummy. ;)

I ordered the Rock Lobster tail and Sirloin Steak.? Oh baby.? And it was so good.? You could all but taste the salt water in the lobster tail.? So I was more than pleased.? On the way home, we drove around looking at Christmas lights.? At least, until H fell asleep and the baby started to kick my bladder. ;)? Then we drove home.? All in all, a great night.

My parents sent me a card with $20 so we used that towards our dinner.? So it only ended up costing us $30.? And we have more than enough food for dinner again tomorrow night.? Ahh.? Tomorrow.? That’s a whole nother entry in itself. ;)
