Its that time of year

I just read Mama Marshmallow's reasons why she loves this time of year and now all I can think about is peppermint ice cream drenched in hot fudge :) Anyway so I am now 28 and the day is off to an amazing start. I went shopping, which always puts me in a good mood, and found some great deals at gap which I pre-ordered for Thursday when my 30% off coupon starts :) I even found a cute $8 maternity cardigan- I just love deals! Neil ordered me a yummy lunch from Katz's deli, complete with chocolate cake and after nap time the kids and I are having a movie fest. I rented Toy Story 3 and the latest Tinkerbell movie. And I am suppose to get three packages of birthday goodness in the mail today!!! I love getting mail. Since Neil can't be here he is sending stuff and, lets face it, my love can totally be bought. And tonight I am going to the mall again with the Young Women. Grace and John are coming too so lets all pray they take good naps. My game plan is to let Grace run wild with the girls, she loves them, and to buckle John into his stroller and shovel snacks into his little mouth to keep him happy. If the stars all align he may even fall asleep. Cross your fingers!
