Happy Birthday Sean!

Sean's birthday was Wednesday. He took time out of his studies and we all went out to Ruby Tuesday's and ate a yummy dinner! It was so fun! Tate had a blast and Sean and I stuffed ourselves! We hung out when we got home for a little bit before Sean descended into the basement to get back to his school work. He seems to live down there these days. I feel for him!
Amazing the difference 2 years makes! 2 years ago we were celebrating Sean's 30th birthday in Muscatine with a big surprise birthday bash. Sean had a blast, he attended the IA vs. IA State game (the Hawks whooped up on the Clones!) and had his entire head painted half gold, half black. We drank and ate and went to the bar and stayed up until the wee hours. Just 3 short weeks later, we had a son! My how birthdays have changed...no more drinking and partying and going to the bar. We would much rather use our time to be together as a family. We like being in bed by 10 or so, it's hard to survive with little sleep! We prefer it this way, it's so much better than we thought being a family would be.
Sean's 30th birthday hilight...partying and drinking with friends and family that he doesn't get to see very often!
Sean's 32nd birthday hilight...the sounds of Tates belly laughs as he plays with Daddy on the couch after dinner!

I know Sean wouldn't go back in a million years!

We love you, Sean...HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
