32 and ...

In just over a week I will be 32.

For my 30th two years ago I had a nearly three week old baby who was permanently attached to my breast. It was a very low key event. It was lovely but I decided my 31st birthday would involve a lot more Champagne to make up for the lack of it at my 30th birthday.

For my 31st birthday I was 7 months pregnant. I had not imagined that would be the case 12 months earlier but we were excited that that is how it turned out. My birthday card read
Dear Mummy
Thankyou for letting us draw and play. We love you. Daddy said to say that he promises you wont be pregnant for your birthday next year so you can drink Champagne.
Love from Jackson, Millie and Lola

That card cemented the baby in my bellies name as Lola! I started planning my 32nd birthday party in my head. I thought a Champagne fountain might be nice!

BUT I guess sometimes it is great to break a promise!



YES I AM!!

Disclaimer: I most certainly do love all of my children much more than Champagne! (Just in case you were wondering)

Yay!!! A huge congrats to you and your lovely family. You could always drink non-alcoholic Champers and pretend, though I'm guessing that being pregnant for your birthday is a much better present! We are so happy for you guys and a little brother or sister for Jackson, Millie and Lola will make them all very happy. <3
