We had Micah's birthday celebration here a few weeks ago.
We had chili and cornbread,
and a baseball cake.
Micah enjoyed opening presents,
but still managed to give us a few classic "2 year old attitude" poses.
It is a well known fact that Micah was born exactly nine months after my Mom and her husband kept Noah and Jonah overnight for Joe and I to have some alone time. Since then every time we go on a date there is endless teasing. We decided that on Micah's second birthday it was time to turn the tables.
As soon as all of the family arrived, Joe and I stood side by side in the kitchen and asked to have every one's attention. I put my arm around him and said, "I'm sure all of you know that two years and nine months ago Mom and Pa kept Noah and Jonah for Joe and I to have a date....and here we are celebrating Micah's second birthday. I'm sure most of you know as well that they kept all three boys for us to go on a date a for valentines day, and now I want you to know that WE ARE EXPECTING.......you all to have as much fun today as we had on that date!
The looks on their faces were priceless! I think it may have been the best joke I have ever pulled off. Most of them were so shocked that I said we were expecting that they did not even hear the rest of the sentence. Ahhh, fun times!
