Happy Birthday Mama!

Yesterday was Becky's 32nd birthday!!! I had to work but she and Ally had a fun day together doing normal stuff around the house. Ally is really into imaginative play right now. There is an elaborate Lego mansion in our living room - seriously this structure gets bigger everyday, its now 3 floors and I think there are 6 rooms! That is bigger than our house.


We met up for lunch at Whole Foods.


Becky and I went out to dinner by ourselves, but when we came back it was time to have Mama's cake! The day before Ally and I went to the store to get flowers. Ally picked out the flowers behind my head - yellow sunflowers because yellow is mama's favorite color. Then there are orangey-red gerber daisies too. I told Ally she could pick whatever she wanted - 2 bunches. The florist tried to get her to change her mind, but Ally would not be deterred. It was pretty cute. Then Ally said we had to get more presents for mama. So we got some red cherries and a cherry pitter. Becky thought they were pretty neat.


Ally was pretty excited to give her mama her presents. (Can you tell its hot here?)

The Birthday Woman!


Becky picked out her dessert - she wanted lemon bars. So Ally and I made lemon bars, and Ally actually ate some! Becky got some very nice cards - one from each of her Aunts, our parents and from Ally and I. 31 was a pretty big year for Becky - lots of changes in our life, but every year together and with Ally gets better and better.
