lucy's 29th birthday

it was my birthday last wednesday, 28th Sept and to my big surprise, bryan got me a kindle!  whoa!  i'd been wanting to get a kindle ever since its release like almost 2 years ago.

alan grabbed the knife with lightening speed and tried to cut my cake.  but i, the birthday girl, had to do the first cute!

here's alan enjoying mom's birthday cake.  he loved it!

and after he made a mess on his face, everyone wanted to have a picture with him.

as far as i could remember, this was the first time i spent my birthday with my mom.

time flies.  alan's one year old.

and this is him a year ago, when he was born.  he was so tiny then.  look how much he's grown!

now he eats his birthday cake!

my first birthday with alan

these photos aren't very good due to the lack of natural light, but i want to share them with you anyway.  they were taken a while ago, on my birthday night, 28 september 2010.  

it was my first birthday with alan!

he had a tiny bit of my cake, too.
