Andrew's Birthday

I didn't get a chance to blog about Andrew's birthday before we left, because there was just too much to do that week. So here it is, a little bit late!

Here he is opening his first present:






He needed a good food processor, and he thought this was really his only present. Well, except for me cooking DINNER for him the night before his birthday. I did chicken in a skillet with vegetables. And I did a salad with a homemade Dijon dressing that had lettuce, tomatoes, basil, and chicken and cheese filled tortellinis. It would've been great, if the dressing wasn't too vinegary, and if the chicken hadn't been so thin (it cooked quickly and became like a piece of leather).

But Andrew ate it all. I love him!! I ate the pasta from the salad and the skillet veggies (they were seasoned beautifully, if I do say so myself!).





Then after dinner came his big surprise...the main present that I was so careful to hide from him!







He's been wanting a Wii for awhile, and I kept telling him we should wait until Christmas, blah-blah-blah. I was so worried I was going to come home one day and he was going to have impulse-bought one, and I was going to have to figure out a different birthday present, hahaha! But he didn't really suspect it anymore, once he saw the wrapped food processor and knew that was too big to be a Wii. I kept the other present hidden, so he didn't suspect a thing. I think it's the only time I've ever pulled off a surprise!

And what would a post be without a little Dewey?? He had fun opening presents with Daddy!







I hope that you had a fantastic birthday weekend, babe, I know I had fun watching you open your presents! I love you!
