Happy Birthday to me 🙂 I like this particular birthday, (it would have been a good one to be 10 on!) as the date was 10.01.10 – i managed to look at the clock at 10.01am too.
Had a lovely day, with a breakfast of egg and bacon muffins made by Fran and some lovely presents of pyjamas, smellies etc My main present is the mounting, framing and hanging of a picture i bought a couple of years ago but has been behind my chest of drawers ever since, but it isn’t ready till next week. And the microwave was a joke (i hope!) – Max organised a surprise babysitter and he and i have been out for dinner, my parents came over and i had two really wonderful cakes made for me by the 4 girls, which made me feel very special.
My present to myself was to go yesterday and have a 4d scan of the baby. It was kind of weird to see something so intimate, a bit like being a peeping tom really; Max said it was a bit too odd, like seeing your birthday presents the night before. But i loved it – it felt a real privilege to get a peek at this little person.
I wanted to be sure i would have no regrets about this last time being pregnant and i wanted to do this, much like having found out what we are having this time, having never known before. I’m not regretting any of my choices to do things differently so far 🙂

Happy Birthday Merry. :o) I wish 4D scans were about when I did my pregnancies, what a lovely way to meet your baby.

Happy Birthday for yesterday, and AWWWWWW! 4d scans are amazing.
(Am I the only reader squinting at the baby’s face trying to decide whether it looks more like a boy or a girl? *grin*)

lol, possibly not. I’m not letting on though 🙂 Although, i will say that i can see all the other girls in that little face – so it definitely belongs to us anyway!!!

That picture of your little one is amazing. I also wish 4D scans had been around when I was pregnant with my little ones. What a neat birthday present. Hope you had a fantastic day!
