My oh my am I really that old? I know... 20 is not that old, but it's still a big age for me. I was thinking today that if someone told me 5 years ago that by age 20, I would be married and have a son I would have flat out laughed in their face! I know now that the lord for sure understands and knows each of us and what will make us happy. I had such a great birthday! Zach has been planning what we would do for like a month now and I had no clue what was in store. First he surprised me with a sewing machine (early) which I was super excited about and haven't stopped using since! Than this morning we went to Mimi's for breakfast and than he surprised me with a mini shopping spree to wherever I wanted. It was perfect.. since I desperately need new clothes and have been kicking myself for donating all of my pre-pregnancy jeans after I had Jonah. If there's any advice I can give to those of you who are pregnant it's DO NOT THROW AWAY ANY OF YOU"RE NON-MATERNITY CLOTHES! YOU WILL LOOSE THE WEIGHT EVENTUALLY! Anyway, So after we went shopping we dropped Jonah off at home and his Uncle Ben babysat. Zach then surprised me with a Movie! We saw Horton Hears a Who. It was perfect for the mood I was in and I actually really enjoyed the movie! After the movie we went to Tucanos for dinner and stuffed ourselves with grilled pineapple, beef brisket, turkey wrapped in bacon, and sirloin. (I am definitely NOT a vegetarian ;)) I think we were done eating in like 15 minutes. I wish you could have an all day pass to that place because you get so full so fast but an hour later I wanted more! But I really NEEDED to get home and nurse, or else I would have been really miserable.
When we got home Ben was holding Jonah in the bathroom sink, letting im splash his feet in the water. It looked like they had a lot of fun together!
I was really sad because I wanted to take pictures of the whole day because I was really curious to what we were even doing since it was a surprise. Unfortunately, I forgot so here is the one and only picture of my birthday. Thanks to Zach for making it such a memorable day! (I love how Jonah is of course not smiling in the picture. Will he ever learn?)

Happy Birthday! I can't believe you're 20. I still remember the day you were born (and cutting your cord!) like it was last week. I'm not joking about that either. Time flies by so quickly.
