My friend Nicole stalked my pinterest and gave me this print for my birthday yesterday. I just love it so much and have added it to my new nightstand. Yesterday was a good day; I'm so thankful for my husband, family, and friends that made me feel so loved throughout the day. Even though it was my birthday I still had to do homework. Say whaaaaat?!! Grad school started on Monday and I'm really excited and nervous. It's been a while since I've been in school and it feels like forever since I've written a paper. Reading text books wasn't the most exciting thing I could have done but hey, I guess that's growing up.

My best friend Megan called me yesterday to wish me a happy birthday, and then she proceeded to tell me that she was on the way to the hospital because she was having contractions. Sweet baby Caroline was born and mom and baby are both happy and healthy! It's such an exciting time and I can't wait to go and meet her in person. I'm so proud of my best friend and incredibly happy for her and her husband. Love you Meg, can't wait to meet your precious little girl.
