Happy Birthday Stu!!!

Well we got to celebrate Stu's Birthday for an entire week.  The weekend before his actual birthday my parents took MacRae for the the weekend.  Since I can no longer travel our plans of golfing in St George had to be postponed, but we did get to spend a relaxing weekend just the 2 of us.  We went out to dinner every night, saw to movies, slept in, and enjoyed a couples massage.  It was so nice to just be together with no added stress.  We then had a little party at Stu's parents house for him. 

It was so cute to see how excited MacRae was for his daddy's birthday.  He came with me to get his presents and he kept it a secret up until the day before.  Pretty good for a 3 year old. The day before we decorated the kitchen and bought him a cake and of course balloons, MacRae was so excited to pick them out. The morning of his actual birthday MacRae woke up at 6:30 am and the first thing he asked was if it was his Daddy's birthday yet.  When I told him yes he ran to his room and got the presents that he had stashed under his bed (so Daddy wouldn't see them).  I am so mad that I forgot to take any pictures.

This man is truly amazing.  I often wonder what I did to deserve such a incredible father and husband.  The day we found out that we were having 2 little girls, his main concernn was that he didn't know how to change girls diapers or do their hair, when most Dad's would have been freaking out.  But that is just his personality, he always looks for the positive in things.  I love him so much and I am so grateful for all that he does for us.  Since I have gotten further along, he has become our new housekeeper.  I have never seen my toilets or showers look so clean.  He puts lotion and my socks on for me every day, since I can't reach them anymore.  It is the little things that he does that make me fall in love with him even more.  I know that I have been a roller coaster of emotions the last 2 years, but he has been there for me every step of the way.  I cannot imagine my life without, I am so lucky that I don't ever have to.  I love you so much Baby, and I hope you had a Happy Birthday.
