Happy 29th Matt!

So yesterday was Matt’s 29th birthday but since we’ve been a bit um… preoccupied we didn’t have any plans for it. At all. So when I wasn’t in labor yesterday I decided what the hell – I’ll throw him a surprise party!

Clearly all you need for that is a DQ ice cream cake:
Matt's Bday

Wine:
Matt's Bday

And some friends:
Matt's Bday
Totally doable on like 8 hours of notice. It was a super fun time even if it was low key. Plus Matt was beyond surprised so that’s fun.

And yes – that is our kitchen in the pictures. It is about 95% done. I’ll post lots of pretty shots of it when it’s totally 100% finished. But we’re still waiting on some trim pieces that are ordered… and we have to finish up some painting details… so we're close but not quite there. We worked our asses off last week getting it to this point. Everything is put away. Everything is functional. And thanks to my mom spending all day Friday (and the weekend before that) helping me clean our house is no longer covered in a film of construction dust. So yeah – just about ready for this kid to show up any time now…
