So I must admit I have been spoiled these last few days. I had my birthday today, and Mother's Day yesterday. Sunshine asked me today at dinner if it was going to be my birthday every Monday, and I just said that would sure be nice!
Most Sundays, Thunder is gone the whole day. But yesterday, we all slept in, we ate breakfast together, and then Thunder casually mentioned that he had canceled all meetings for the morning. What a nice surprise.
The kids helped Daddy pick out what every preggo lady needs- some fat clothes. I've never had a baby in the spring/summer, so all my post-baby stuff is for the winter.
And a small addition to my
Valentine's gift.... Thunder totally surprised me with the wedding band to match my ring. Love it!
After breakfast yesterday, Thunder had me sit down in our big cushy chair... and gave me a Chinese foot massage! Yes, in a home depot bucket :-) He rubbed and soaked and pressed and poked and scrubbed and lotioned up my feet for nearly an hour. Wow, that was the highlight of my day. I darn near fell asleep. After church, Thunder grilled some delicious steaks and took care of everything after dinner. What a fulfilling day.
And then this morning, it started again! We were all awake early enough before school that we did presents then. I was excited to open up a blender! Ours broke a while ago, and I have missed making smoothies. I also got some more clothes and a ring sling for the baby (who should be here any day now!!).
As a present to me, Cloudburst got up, got dressed and checked in her backpack for homework, all without me bugging her. And I got so many hugs from Sunshine and Tornado.
We enjoyed another of Thunder's divine grill offerings... BBQ chicken. He does such a good job. It's what I wanted more than anything else. He also made potatoes, rolls and cut up strawberries. The poor guy was worn out by the time bedtime rolled around tonight! I got many phone calls and messages online... it's so nice to be remembered!
Don't you just love this time of year?
And oh yes... a funny story. We were eating Friday night and Thunder happened to look in Cloudburst's mouth, and notice that a tooth was missing! The poor girl lost her 2nd tooth and didn't even know it. She was a bit distraught that the tooth fairy might miss her pillow that night, so she wrote this note, complete with an explanatory drawing. And even though the tooth fairy was very tired that night, Cloudburst received her bounty :-)

Poor Cloudburst! I am glad the tooth fairy remembered her. I love her little note. :) Your bushes and tulips look great! Spring is the best time of the year. (Maybe I just feel that way because I have a May birthday, but it is my favorite season). What a good husband you have! Well done Thunder.
What a fantastic couple of days! I'll have to share Thunder's good deeds with some Pelissie hands... i'll take a Home Depot bucket like that any day! ;) Hope you get to go into labor soon. Will you have help? PLEASE let me know if I can take the kids for a play date. Truly.
WOW! What a great mothers day and b-day you had! I love the note to the tooth-fairy! Gorgeous ring! Good-luck with the baby and happy belated birthday!
I am so glad to know that mine aren't the only ones who've swallowed their teeth!!!
