Birthday Surprises

There were many! First, Greg and Danielle showed up on our doorstep on Saturday to surprise me for my birthday. Yay! Well, I guess technically they appeared well before I opened the door for them as they got in earlier and headed out the back door to hide and then reappear at the front for me to find them. It was really nice to have them here and we had a great time - if only for a few short days. Sunday night we al went to mom & Ed's for my favorite - homemade lasagne. Godparents Kate and Larry were there too so it was like a little piece of home for me!

This week has been another whirlwind of activity and today was definitely no exception. We went to the doctors where we found out the gender of our littl bun in the oven. This was not a huge surprise but a wonderful piece of news all the same. We're having a little boy! This was eveident from the beginning apparently. Still, I teared up and was very happy to hear (and see) that we know the sex now. No more "its" in this house!

So now what? We have a party to prepare for this weekend. Cleaning, cooking, etc. And then the rest - so much to prepare for in general. And I have to Christmas shop?! I might get you all "Aunt", "Uncle", "Gramps" or whatever shirt would be appropriate for you. Hope you like green and blue!!!
