Brewster Birthday Bonanza!

My birthday (July 27) starts a narrow succession of events in our family: our wedding anniversary on August 2, my mom's birthday on August 7 (one of Craig's cousins has the same birthday as my mom), Craig's birthday on August 11, and my brother's birthday on August 19 (and if my dad were living, his birthday was August 15!).

Just got tired reciting all that.

We didn't do anything special for our anniversary this year, just went out to family restaurant for dinner (a local joint called Sharis). My mom and brother are coming to visit this coming Sunday for a little over 2 weeks. Yay! Really excited about that. Gabe can have other people to pal around with and I get to see my mommy (and my brother, too, lol).

Craig got me some hair products I wanted to try for my birthday, from Qhemet Biologics. Can you all tell I am disturbingly into my hair?



But I can't wait to try them. I joked with Craig and on Facebook that they smell so good, I want to eat it! However, I mistakenly told Craig to order the 2 oz. Detangling Ghee instead of the 5 oz. The 2 oz will pretty much get used up in one detangling session! But that's ok, maybe I won't like how it performs, who knows. I can always get more.

I got Craig his birthday present early. It's a CD of a band whose music is out of print, The Producers. He has the cassette tape, which is useless. So now, he has the CD!

While my family is in town, we all (including Craig's mom, Deb) plan on going out to celebrate the birthdays. I was thinking of taking them to Philadelphia's, a Portland restaurant that makes cheesesteaks. And they are goooood, okay? Better than cheeseteaks in Philly.

Here is the daily pic of Gabe. He was eating some Honey Nut Cheerios while I was taking pics of the hair products. He has one molar that is almost completely emerged. Another is just slightly poking through and the other two have not surfaced. He has really been a trooper about it because I know at times they hurt a lot. So far, he has not had a lot of trouble sleeping at night, but naps are bit fitful. We can't wait until all the molars are done coming in.
