so poppy and nanny sent nate a letter. which i out in his mail box. it took him about 5 mins to see that the flag was up
he was quite excited
"mommy, yaya get the mail. not you! yaya get it, big boy!"
and slowly ripping the card open
ohhh what's that?!
it's a gift card to mcdee's. when he saw it, he yelled "macdonalds! mommy, we go to macdonalds? please?please!please. today. thank you"
then nate did some more painting...on the counter, the chair, the wall, the paper and himself!
chris took this pic. he asked nate to show him his picture. nice mug shot eh?!today is chris's 35th birthday. i can't believe how old we are getting! we are keeping low and chilling and will celebrate it properly next week. nate and i went in to take chris to lunch, we went to a non child friendly place...no high chairs in this place...full of main st workers, suits and such. nate did AMAZING. he was SO good. he sat and chatted, was quiet and respectful and we did not get one dirty look! ha!
happy birthday chris. i love you!!

I too, share Nate's enthusiasm with getting mail. :) Sadly, birthdays have become less exciting because there's nothing to look forward to in the mail box. More and more family members forget your birthday and stop sending gifts, unlike when we were kids... I am so thankful for my amazing Grandmother who continues to send letters and small gifts every now and then to let us know she's thinking of us. When I order something online, the greatest anticipation is opening the mail box to find something other than bills .... haha :) Happy birthday to your Hubs.
