My 26th Birthday Re-Cap!

My birthday was a little different than planned but that's okay. I was looking forward to a quiet day at home until Tim and I went out for dinner, but after waking the girls up and seeing how terrible Madelynn and Claire felt, I decided to take them to the doctors. They had colds but their coughs just really sounded bad and their eyes just didn't look right.


I packed everything up and headed out. It was FREEZING out, like 19 degrees. SO cold. I hated taking them out, but I knew it was best to get them checked out. It was also my FIRST time taking TWO babies out by myself. I always "take" all of them out, but that's when meeting Tammy, just going to my parent's house, or meeting Tim somewhere. So I have no problem leaving the house with all three, but I have never gone into a store or done something with TWO of them by myself yet, but with one of our new double light-weight strollers, it was super easy! I was happy it was manageable, even at 36.5 weeks pregnant and super sick myself! I barely had any voice! Holla!


After diagnoses of RSV, which I talked about in this post, I picked up Natalee from my Mom's house and went home to put these sick babies to bed. They had been refusing to eat and only wanted bottles, so a bottle and to bed it was. They slept great and I was able to get some things done and rest a little myself, it was my birthday after all! 


Later after they woke up, Tim took some photos of me and the girls to compare from last year on my birthday.

Last year!

This year....they're in the same order as above...Claire, Natalee, Madelynn!

The girls were acting crazy and want nothing to do with sitting still!

Who needs toys when we can have to wipe bag!?!?

We then got dressed and headed out to one of my favorite restaurants, Clyde's Tower Oaks Lodge. My best friend gave us a gift card for Christmas and immediately I knew I wanted to go for my birthday dinner. 

Thanks to Aunt Christine and Uncle Nathan for babysitting our sick babies so we could still go out! When we got back at a super late time of 8:30pm, haha, Claire was still awake and wanted some snuggles from Momma!

All and all it was a great 26th birthday! SO happy to have my health and a beautiful family!
