We always know. but anyways my dad this year got me a separate card only from his htis year and wrote something really sweet in there...so not sure if he's getting all sentimental because his little girl is finally getting married!! ha You know it's funny too because I'm already thinking of plans for his birthday because it's the day before our wedding in Mexico. Oh well..I guess that's just how he grew up. I think his family at least calls him but they don't make a big deal about birthdays in his family. But when you know how much it means to me you think you'd know better to at least tell me Happy Birthday and get a card.

my dad often calls the week before my birthday. mine is the 15th of nov. but my sister is the 8th of oct. - exactly one month and one week earlier. so my dad screws up on a regular basis, forgetting whose is the 8th and whose is the 15th! i just tell him he's old and that's why he forgets

Tell me about it!! That's ok..right now I'm adding a bunch of stuff to our registry that he'll probably hate but I wanted..ha Prices to pay....

Happy Birthday

 

My family has always made a big deal out of our birthdays, but FI's never did. He doesn't get why I get so excited every year and seriously start counting down the days starting about a month before. There's no way he could ever forget my b-day b/c I'm so obnoxious about it...lol!

 

Seriously, you need to milk this one. He's going to feel bad when he realizes he forgot.

That's so funny..my sister's birthday is the 19th so she is a week early than mine too...thing is my mom's birthday is Feb 19th so dad knows that we are both in April and that one of us is the same date as my mom. One of his best friend's has the same wedding anniversary so he always reminds my dad of that.

BTW right now I'm making FI watch Bachelor with me for his punishment...
