27 Years...

Today marks the 27th anniversary of the day (as she puts it) my moms life ended.

She went into the Hospital to have a baby, first came me, then, 5 minutes later, MUCH to her surprise, out came another little baby girl.

Can you imagine?

BTW: some might be hurt if their mom told them this, but I am not...you have to know my mom to get it, and to be quite honest. I totally believe her. She had a 18 month old, and twin newborns. You think I am bitching about how stressed I am...can you imagine?

Today my plan is to try to get out of the house. I actually got out of the house earlier for a Latte. Baby steps. The problem is that I am limited to where I can go because Brynn is getting over a cold. So I don't want to be "that mom" that takes their sick kid out to spread the yucky germs across the land.

So maybe just a quick drive in at In n Out Burger, as a friend suggested.

I did something really funny to by Husband last night...first let me say that Chad is a *pick up a gift from the gas station on my way home* kind of guy. last year I got Yellow Post It Notes for me birthday...seriously....I wish I was joking.

So last night I said "Babe, you know what would make me REALLY happy tomorrow for my bday? I want to open my gift before I even get out of bed, so when you wake up, just bring me my gift!"

Now, I did this knowing he hasn't got me crap yet, nor has he even thought about it...I just wanted to watch him squirm! But he caught on and we laughed about it.

So, if anyone reads this...please have a glass of wine tonight and lets all celebrate the day my moms life ended (figuratively speaking) and mine began! :-)

Your poor, poor mom, LOL! Happy birthday. I didn't know you were a "surprise" twin. I am sure your mom handled it much better than I would have!
