Cincinnati and my birthday

We enjoyed a wonderful trip to Cincinnati for New Years. We were able to see our friends from college (Jim and Sarah). We also made a quick trip up to Columbus to see Todd and Jenn (friends from Residency). On Friday, we saw Anna, Cris, and James for a fondu meal at my parents house. Maddie loves James so we can't get enough pictures of them hugging :).

I had a great birthday on Monday. It was so much fun to get emails and phone calls all day long from my friends. Thank you so much! Maddie and I went to lunch at Puffy Muffin (Yum!) and then Jon and I had a date to Stoney River that evening.


"Why do they always want us to hug?"

Helping Pappy with the pancakes.

This is what happens when you let a two year old dress herself.

Mommy's birthday lunch.

We split a cupcake to celebrate.

This is the dessert Jon and I split later that night (notice the 2 shot glasses of milk)

Mmmmm, more cupcakes from my Nashville friends.



Trying to catch snowflakes on our tongues.

"Look what Mommy snuck in my hair this morning."

"but I'm going to take them out in a minute."

"Just kidding, I wouldn't do that."

"or would I . . . "
