I had Noel fill out a questionnaire last week to help me plan the “Perfect Day” for his birthday. To get an insight into what makes this wonderful guy tick, here’s what he choose:

• Wake up a little early to fit in a run.
• Eat creme brulee french toast and a glass of orange juice.
• Work (Okay, this was not necessarily part of the “perfect day,” but Noel really does love his job.)
• Lunch at D’Deli. (If  you ever visit remind me to take you there. I don’t typically like sandwiches, but thinking about theirs makes me salivate.)
• More work.
• Dinner of croissants (the real ones that seriously took 3 days to make), fruit, and creamy pasta with veggies and steak. (The pasta tasted way better than the picture lets on.)

• Play with Cooper (and field a dozen birthday phone calls).
• Open presents

• Raspberry cream cheese cake with vanilla ice cream.

• Put little boy to bed.
• Watch a movie while snuggling with prego wife.

Cooper and I did our best and hopefully made some of his wildest dreams come true. Happy Birthday Noel!
