28 is Great!

28 weeks pregnant....
...and 28 years old!

Yesterday was my 28th birthday! We celebrated the big day with a yummy dinner and cheesecake afterwards. Aaron and the boys made me this delicious chocolate peanut butter cup cheesecake (Aaron must have been practicing because it was a big improvement over last years' attempt). Yum!

Usually my birthday isn't my favorite occasion because it always makes me feel this need to reckon for each year of life and, well, essentially, its kind of a gloomy/stressful feeling. However, I have this theory about birthdays: every 4th year, I have an epic year....and this is my year!! As far back as I can remember, most of my major life events have occured during a multiple of 4 year: baptism, entering YW, driving, dating, college graduation, engagement, endowment, marriage, law school graduation ceremony, passing the bar exam, home buying, child birth, etc. I don't know what is in store for me this year, but, according to my theory, its going to be great!
