Happy birthday to me (this is our 400th post)!

This birthday has been pretty low-key.  I wasn't really anticipating it, it doesn't feel like any kind of milestone, and it doesn't really feel like a birthday since HARPER IS DRIVING ME CRAZY AND WON'T TAKE A NAP.  But we did go to Santa Monica this morning to celebrate by getting some cupcakes.  Yum.  We had a groupon that I had purchased a few months ago so we got 6 cupcakes.  Since Tom isn't a big fan and I can't be a bad mother and let Harper eat a bunch of cupcakes, I guess I'm going to have to eat most of them.  Actually, what I meant to say is that I have already eaten most of them.  Oops.

Tom did take one of the junior mint cupcakes off my hands and Harper and I split the other junior mint and also the hostess-looking cupcake this morning.  This was her reaction when we realized that we weren't eating all 6 cupcakes:

 Full on tantrum.  Probably the worst tantrum she has ever thrown.

I didn't plan on making our 400th post on my birthday and it really just feels like I was making our 100th post.  I recently formatted our blog into books and had them printed for 2006-2008.  One book had our posts from 2006 & 2007 and the other from 2008.  The first book was a lot smaller than the second, so having kids has definitely increased our posting frequency.  I am hoping to do books for 2009 & 2010 this year, but for 2011 I am doing a daily photo project.  Basically I am taking a photo every day.  Mostly they are pictures of Harper and Jonah, but I am trying to focus on doing something interesting every day.  I feel like so many day pass without anything significant happening and they all blur together, so I am hoping that this will help me appreciate each day a little more.
