birthday week.

happy birthday week!!! 

...to my favorite man on this planet...

hey hey. 

it's DJ's last week in this 20s!

I can't believe that DJ will be 30 this saturday.

I can't believe we met almost 16 years ago.

I can't believe we've almost been married for 2 years.

I can't believe he'll be a daddy in 5 weeks (or so).

I have lots to post about but this is what is is occupying my brain currently...

...trying to think of ways to celebrate my love and best friend.

you see, I'm quite the expert on 30th birthday parties 

[just ask my ex-boyfriend, his was amazing - no really, it was]

so I feel kinda guilty... it's almost like Big Daddy

...but I guess we're even because someone [aka DJ's ex-fiance] had a long-drawn-out-romantic proposal whereas I got - "hey, you want to stop by town hall on the way to work?"* 

....and my ex got the whole crazy surprise weekend 30th birthday bash and a girlfriend that wasn't 9 month pregnant and too tired/exhausted to focus on planning a party... 

[yeah, to say I've been distracted is an understatement]

so yes, we might have "wasted the good surprise" on someone else...

but in the end, we have each other.

....and I ordered 20lbs of crawfish.

so I guess that's pretty great, right?

ANYWAYS.....

happy birthday week to my danny j.

love you jiggs!

more birthday love coming soon.... :)

*yes, there's more to our proposal, and it was sweet in its own way.... and absolutely perfect and I wouldn't have it any other way... I'll tell you the whole story one day...
