I have entered my 31st year. It was a fantastic day. Kevin and Corinne got up and I slept in until nearly 10 AM, crazy late for our household lately (since Corinne was born). It was great. Presents were waiting as soon as I was up. Corinne and Simba decided I needed a new little green iPod. I was confused by this gift, I admit it. I already have an iPod and an iPhone. Then Rufus gave me his gift, which is the Nike+ kit. It allows your iPod to track your mileage, time, all sorts of great stuff to help me workout. But...I like Asics, not Nike. It is a good thing Kevin knew that and got me the carrier for any shoe to use the kit. How thoughtful!
Once Corinne woke up from her nap we headed out for an afternoon of fun. First stop was Castaway Cafe in Howell.It is a huge indoor kid playland (it rained for my birthday).
Corinne had a blast and went up and up and up, then down and down and down. There were tons of kids, she did great. I think mom was more tired than she was when we left. As long as we were there we stopped by the outlet mall for a bit of shopping.
Next, we went to Stillwater for my favorite meal:

Next, we went to Stillwater for my favorite meal:
- glass of water
- Bell's Oberon
- Spinach Artichoke Dip, it is dreamy
- Cajun Tenderloin Tips, medium
- Caesar Salad
- Free Birthday Brownie / Ice Cream / Hot Fudge Sundae
It was spectacular. Corinne made lots of friends and was perfectly behaved until we were done eating. Then she decided she was tired and fussy. So, we jetted out of there.
We relaxed for the evening. I thought we would see if Corinne will sleep at the drive in, but they only had extremely loud movies playing. It seemed they would not be conducive to sleeping. So, we laid low. Kevin made me a spectacular carrot cake. I may be on sugar overload, but I am happy and full. It has been a great day. I was sung to multiple times, and feel the love with all the birthday wishes.
It has been a busy week here in the Nicholls house. Friday night we got to share in the celebration of Megan and Dave Bangos wedding.
Kevin and I had a great time at the Whitney downtown. There was even an excellent rainbow.
Corinne had her first overnight without us. She stayed with Granny and Grandpa Sniderman. They followed her regular routine and she went down with ease and slept all night, YAY. She did get to attend the rehearsal for the wedding the night before. So, she didn't miss all the festivities. She had fun.
Wednesday was jammed pack full of fun. Corinne and I meet Grandma, Grandpa, and Great-Grandpa Nicholls for breakfast. Then we went to a Musical Movement class at the library. It was awesome!
They had tunnels, parachutes, songs, and tons of other kids. Corinne was very independent, crawling all over with or without me. Again, she had a blast. This was an excellent program. We went back to visit more with Grandma Nicholls and go see Great-Grandma.
