Happy Birthday, Happy Easter, Welcome, and You're pregnant?

Yesterday, the family got together. We were celebrating Dad and Ashleighs birthdays. Also, being the Easter weekend, we brought home a garbage bag full of chocolate for the kids. Grandma once again gave the gift of Avon. My cousin arrived from Calgary yesterday and will be staying for a while at my parents place. We haven't seen her in about 15 years. I remember her as a child. She's all grown up now - making me feel old. I went, prepared not to like her. She's a model and therefore, I kinda expected her to be stuck up. She was not. In fact, she's not only beautiful, but also very sweet. I hope to get to spend some more time with her.

Dinner was amazing. Mom went all out, and there was tones to eat. The he-ex showed up for a few minutes and brought gifts for the kids. It was a bit awkward, making Hubby feel uncomfortable. He left before dinner and things returned to normal. Then there were the whispers about a baby. Not an outright announcement - just a quiet acknowledgement. Our family will be growing this year.

All in all, it was a good day. A little bit of everything. The only thing we were missing was an engagement. I'm sorry Phil - I'm trying to back off. I just couldn't help it.
