Phil. He is 40 today. He is my best friend and lover. He is my husband and father to my children. He is everything I ever wanted in a mate and friend. How wonderful it is to enjoy time with him on his special day. His parents sent him a gift card to the Macaroni Grill and we went and had lunch today. I must have the Italian influence on him, as he isn’t Italian! lol…
Here he is with his huge piece of birthday cake, provided by MG. Thanks!

Asher came into the world on Jan. 31, 2008 at 3:16 am. I wasn’t there but we did go out yesterday for a visit. He is a cutie pie, but grandmas are biased, I guess. Here are some first shots. He’s not yet 24 hours old in these pictures! Click on the picture to see a bigger version.

Here is our Christmas tree, in negative view! Cool, huh?
Last week we were at Brit’s for Elizabeth’s first birthday party. Here are a few pictures from that day.
She wasn’t sure if she liked the hat…
“No, grandpa, you can’t have my cake!”
Grandpa was helping her walk…”don’t you love my dress?”
Today is Lauren’s birthday. She is 22. We all told the boys that she is pregnant. They seem fine with it. Not too many questions for now.
Last night I had a hard time sleeping or should I say falling asleep. I did all the tricks I knew to try and fall asleep and none of them worked. Phil was snoring a lot, which didn’t help things. I prayed, I asked myself what was I feeling, I tried to make a mental list of what I was thinking of, what was stressing me out and no such luck at that getting things off my mind. If anything it made it worse.
Today I had nursery duty at church and talked with the other helper about adoption. She adopted her son 14 months ago. She gave me information about a place to call or have Lauren call. I am not sure she can do it, but we have to look into it.
Finally, I am doing something special for Phil for our anniversary later this month. I am having our wedding pictures, or some of them, reprinted and put onto a CD. Then I will get some enlargements and frame them. We don’t have any wedding pictures up. We have few pictures of us as a couple. We had one taken with the fake Niagara Falls backdrop when we visited about 3 years ago. I will frame that one too. I have to get over the fact that I look fat in pictures. By not putting them up won’t make me look any skinnier. Hiding them is not the answer. I might as well have them up and displayed because it’s who I (we) am. Ok time to go make Lauren her birthday dinner of steak.
