Happy Birthday Dad!

Today is my Dad's birthday. When I was younger my parents made the error of always let me pick out the gift I was going to give. I picked out awesome gifts for me Dad, but for some reason he did not enjoy the year of the Barbie, the year of the hula hoop, or the pink poodle. I have no idea why. 

A couple months ago I got the idea into my head that on April 8th we would get our referral and we would get it because: A) it's my Dad's 60th birthday (sorry Dad about announcing it, I know you were hoping to keep it a secret) and how awesome would that have been and B) April marks being on the wait list for 9 months (granted 9 months is officially on the 23rd, but so hoping to be below average when I got this idea). So since I was hoping a picture of his new grandchild(ren) would be the birthday present this year, I haven't gotten one and am open to suggestions. Maybe we will get a referral in time for my parents' anniversary, or my sister's birthday, at the end of the month. (Sorry Edd or Kathy, we would prefer not to wait until your birthday for a referral.)


So. . . 

While we hang out at 16 unofficially for a boy and siblings and 25 unofficially for a girl, we went to the White Sox home opener yesterday. The game was great, you have to love a win, but COLD (most of the game was played with the temperature at the stadium in the 30s). We did however get a 2011 White Sox "All In" car flag. We are really hoping weather.com is accurate with their forecast for Sunday's games with the high of 80 degrees.

maybe you'll get your referral right before Mother's Day - what a great present that would be for the grandma's.....cute frame with your sweet babe(s) picture!! But remind Luc that he will still in fact have to get you a present...and not something with a Sox logo on it

HA! You would also have to add without Bulls, Blackhawks, Buckeyes, or Bears logo to that. . .

In time for Coop's birthday?
