For my 29th Birthday...

Zander and I celebrated with a movie! We went to see an 11:20 showing of Alfie at Harkins Metro. Zander was great! I wore him in the sling when we got there, we got popcorn and a soda (a nice lady helped me carry my soda!). As soon as the movie started I nursed Zander and he fell asleep on me. I was able to eat my popcorn and drink my soda during the movie. Zander woke up once and I nursed him again and he slept some more. He never made a sound during the movie. So happy birthday to me!

Then we walked around the mall. When I wear Zander in the sling people stop to talk to us way more than if he were in the stroller. He enjoys being up at my level and looking around, too.

We had birthday dinner at Doug's parents house so Zander got to visit with Noni & Pappy, Maw & Paw, and Auntie Dani and Cousin Madi. It was fun, Zander was totally hamming it up for everyone. Here's a picture:


Zander asked his daddy to get me a nice card and asked him to write about how much he loved me. It was sweet, I cried.

It was a great birthday! Everyone gave me money as a gift, which I really appreciate! I will be using the money so I can buy a breast pump for when I go back to work. This way I can pump mama's milk for Zander while I'm working. So, thanks to everyone!
