Lou’s birthday was May 25th. We went down to the Taste of Cincinnati, twice in one weekend! We had a loverly time and ate lots of food. We discussed the new meaning of birthdays, now that she’s soon to be a mommy. It’s a big difference between a birthday and a Birth Day.
I remember my baby sister’s Birth Day. I was twelve and she so graciously has provided me with good stories forever after. Rebecca’s birthday was on June 3rd. Ben and I celebrated with Becca and her boyfriend at Carrabas. We drove home dodging tornadoes. Eep!
One other recent birthday to celebrate: my dear Christy-friend and her husband Josh welcomed their daughter Clara Anne into the world on June 2nd. Happy Birth Day teeny one.
Funny coincidence: Exactly nineteen years before Clara, I waited at Christy’s house for Becca to come. Becca was born the day after I finished 6th grade, and I had spent the night at Christy’s house, as was the tradition at the end of the school year. The next afternoon, my aunt picked me up and took me to the hospital. We made it time to watch Baby Becca being wheeled out of the delivery room. The Doctor quipped, “She’s a Fields! Look at the chin!”
And that was only the first of the stories. :)
Lovely memories!
Congratulations Christy and family!!! The pictures Rusty forwarded to me were precious.
If i was the the doctor i would have quipped, “She’s a Fields, she’s cute, look at her sister and Mom!” :-) Not to mention their friend Jason…..
Of course she’s cute! And, of course, trouble has ensued because of it! And, Agent 79, since I don’t even have a chin, I appreciate the compliment! Right back at ya big guy!
For some reason, this didn’t show up in my RSS reader until today. Thanks for the congrats on Clara – she is just wonderful and prettier every day!
Happy belated day of birth to both Lissa and Rebecca. June must be a good month to be born since two of my favorite people were born then (Clara and Josh). I can’t believe that the roly-poly baby that was Rebecca is now a 19 year old woman. I feel old, but not in a bad way. :)
Lissa is next! I can’t wait to hear when your little love makes her appearance. She is so gonna rock your world!
