So, I did not update you all in my last post (since it was oh-so-very-long) about what ended up happening with my birthday. As you may remember, my husband did not really remember my birthday. Even though I reminded him about 10 times bc I am so tired of having a big fight every year when he forgets.

He scrambled around the day of, and was not able to find a babysitter for that evening, so he told me he had a “big surprise” planned for Saturday night. I asked my nanny that day if Adam had called her to ask her to babysit, and the answer was yes, he did call her on my actual birthday. Okay, whatever, he had 3 days to plan something fabulous and to get me that great gift. Did anyone call him and tell him I wanted the 85mm 1.4? No. No one told him. And he did apparently did not remember that it is customary to get gifts for the love of your life on her birthday. He just totally forgot. He is REALLY bad at this. To be fair though, our lives are just crazy right now. We have a very active 1 year old, a five year old, a new house, a house we are renting out, he works like 50 hours a week, and I have two businesses I run. So it may not have been in the cards to have the best birthday ever.

We ended up going to Denver, had a great dinner, then went to a dive bar and played darts. No gift. We *almost* bought me an Ipad, but I decided against it, I just don’t think I would use it enough. So in the end, this will not go on record as the best birthday ever. Maybe next year I can just plan the birthday myself and we would be a lot happier.

And bc no post is complete without a photo…
