Happy Birthday, Daddy!

Daddy celebrated the big 3-6 yesterday! Miles told him "hab day da-dee" as he left at the crack of dawn to go golfing. Sounds like a fun b'day outing, but was with clients, so technically "work." Ha!

Yesterday was also Miles' first day back to school with his new class. He and Eli welcomed two little girls to their room. I think the girls have just started taking their first steps, so will be a change for Miles from the rambunctious 2 year olds. Ms. Candi said he was a real sweetheart with the babies, even patting their heads when they took their naps.

With the two boys occupied for the day, I set out getting ready for the birthday dinner and cake. Well, actually pie. Wayne has celebrated with Baskin-Robbins Grasshopper and Turtle Pie (yes 2 pies) since forever, but when I asked for them at the new BR, they looked at me as if I were crazy. Thankfully they had one close enough to work. Also had to take the dogs to the vet for a 2 hour annual check-up. Apollo is getting on up there - he'll be considered geriatric at his 7th birthday in December!

Then I went and got myself a new 'do! I mean, you know, I had to suffer at the salon to look good for daddy. It's a lot shorter than it has been in years, but I like it. We'll see how it does the first time I style it, though! [no, Erin, Amy didn't do it. she called in sick so Zelda did it.]

Then daddy got to open presents. I made him a book of our pictures and journal from the Italy trip. I had a lot of fun making it, but Wayne's reaction made it so much better. I think I may have actually seen tears as he looked through it! If you want to check it out, you can flip through the pages here.
