So many things to blog about, so little time. The past two weekends have been packed full, R is sick again, and blogging has taken the backseat, but at least the dishes are done (for now) and I went running today so #priorities.
But July 10, 2016, is a day that must be documented. It is my thirtieth birthday and the day R turned eleven months.

^^^ Please note the bowtie hair bow because girlfriend was not having it. Also, please note that I tried to sit in the gray elephant chair and it was, how do you say, a giant fail. These hips don't lie.
For my birthday, Jordan and I met up with our church friends for breakfast before church, and then later in the day some friends came over for games. R hasn't been feeling well this weekend, but she has been really sweet and snuggly, which I don't hate.

I think birthdays are so fun and always make a big deal out of them. I feel so very blessed by friends and family who make me feel so special on my birthday!
Please be praying for R that she feels better. We aren't quite sure what's wrong with her, but she's definitely not feeling 100%. Maybe another ear infection? And of course be in prayer for our country and our world. I wrote this post on prayer a few weeks ago that is still applicable in these current events if you haven't read it yet.

I hope to find time this week to post pictures from last weekend, but I make no promises. My whole family came up from Texas to surprise me for an early birthday weekend, and it was so fun! And of course I want to post R's 11-month update. Just one more month until I am officially the mother of a one-year-old. HOW. I still don't know what I'm doing, in case you thought I was all knowledgable about baby stuff now.
Have a great week! May you find joy today in whatever circumstance you find yourself.
p.s. A little something for those of you who want more Jordan on the blog. R takes no prisoners.

Happy birthday, friend! I'm glad you got to spend time with family and friends. I'll pray R feels better soon.

Happy happy Birthday! Hope R starts feeling better soon!
Happy (belated) birthday, Amanda! Hope you have a blessed year ahead and that R's health improves rapidly.
Ahhh - you make 30 looks amazing momma!!!
Happy Birthday and welcome to the 30 and up club!!! I think we need to see some outtakes of fitting in that tiny little elephant chair, which is totally adorable by the way. Sounds like you had a great birthday!
Happy Birthday! I'm so sorry R isn't feeling well. G is in the same boat, says the mom who got no sleep last night.
Happy birthday! Sounds like a lot of celebrating going on! Hope that cute baby is on the mend soon.
Happy Birthday!! I love that you celebrate with a birth month. I also love that you attempted to sit in R's chair for your picture. Lol! I hope R gets back to feeling better so you can continue celebrating Birth Month!
Happy 360 months!! And happy 11 months to R! You two are both adorable. :) So glad you got to celebrate with so many people you love! :)
Hope it was a great day celebrating. Praying for R right now!
Aww! Happy Birthday to you! 30 looks AWESOME on you! (Bummer about the elephant chair, though! I think it looks pretty comfy! Haha!) Sending some good vibes and prayers your way for little R!
How fun that your family came up early to surprise you! I also love that you refer to yourself as 360 months ;) hilarious! I'm so happy you had a great birthday! Caleb and I love to make birthdays a big deal, too!
Happy belated birthday! Welcome to your 30's! Hope R is feeling better.
