Birthday Bash!

I love birthdays. I love my birthday. I cannot deny it, it is one day where I love to be spoiled and don't mind being a teeny bit selfish. It is probably because my parents always made my birthday super special or because I hate attention the rest of the year, either way its the best day !!

This year I turned the big 25. Surprisingly it didn't bother me at all. My life is amazing, I have a wonderful family and tons of fun friends. Cameron threw me a surprise party with all of the many people in my life. For once I had no idea what was going on, usually I'm pretty good at figuring stuff out even if I don't want to. When I walked into the room and heard everyone yell surprise I felt so much love. He made it so special with food and table decorations and balloons. Who could ask for more? Then he took my actual birthday day off and spent the day with me and Elliott. Those are the little things that make me all warm and fuzzy inside.

Other than that, we are cheerily (well I am) getting ready for Christmas. I am having a blast buying decorations and trying to figure out where to put them--unfortunately I'm quite indecisive. I am looking forward to the Christmas tree...my fav-oh-right part of it all. The smell is intoxicating. It will be Elliott's first Christmas! I am in awe of how fast the little bugger is growing. Only 4 more months until he is one! How could that be?? He's standing up while holding onto something and starting to make sounds that actually sound like something. His hair is growing even if you can't tell...he's just got super blonde hair. At the moment he is going through a clingy stage and doesn't want to be away from me. I love it and get annoyed by it at the same time. Is that normal?
