Greetings friends. Over the weekend, we packed up the car and went to Madison for a beach birthday party for my 6 year old nephew. It was lots of fun swimming and kicking the soccer ball around. Mia, once again was not a fan of the sandy beach, but we remedied the situation and put a blanket down for her to sit in comfortably, while still being able to shovel sand into a bucket. Genius idea Grandma! Well, later we headed to my brother's apartment and had cake. Mia was way more interested in playing with her cousin's legos and his adorable cat Cosmo. Sunday, I worked the night shift and missed soccer. Boo! This week, I turn 30 on Friday. Not too excited about it (Mia even reminds me "Daddy, you're gonna be old) but with some family and friends coming in to town to celebrate with me, I can't help but feel the love. I tend to focus on the negatives lately with this whole turning 30 thing. Not having the job I want plays a big role in it. I want to be able to get up every day and go to a job that I love. That I feel like I make a difference. A job that I can use creativity to my full potential. It is too much to ask? No, but honestly, I can't complain about the cards that were dealt :) I've got a beautiful family, a great house. a supportive family and my health is still pretty good. So I can't complain. Mia and I were dancing in the kitchen earlier today. It was incredibly cute. Makes me a bit sad thinking that some day I'll be dancing with her on her wedding day. While cleaning the kitchen tonight, I thought about how incredibly amazing my wife is. How she's been here for me through everything. She's been there for me in times of great and times of terrible. Through every failed job and been to just about every show I've played (even while pregnant). I couldn't ask for a better wife.
Nothing too exciting to report from my day off. Mia slept in till 11:50AM! ALMOST noon. Easily the latest she slept in her life time. I could be wrong, but I'm almost positive this was the longest she's slept. Missed a nap today too, but was quite tired driving home from our usual adventure visiting Grandma at work/Grandpa at his house and eventually Jill at her studio. At one point she desperately wanted me to find the Beatles on the radio because "Beatles are Grandpa Chicago's favourite Daddy!" While watching Masterchef tonight, Mia took a break and was "making food" in her little kitchen. "Mommy It's really difficult what I'm making!" Hilarious.
Other then that, nothing else to report. Birthday dinner this weekend. Hopefully some soccer action as well. This time I'll try not to run into anyone getting the ball. Cheers, and thanks for reading!
