26

yesterday, i turned 26. i still feel the same as when i turned 23. except i'm a lot more achy and i just figured out that i could only eat a row of the Samoa cookies instead of a whole box in one sitting. (it's getting too sweet for my poor teeth.)

i'm not really big on birthdays so i just went about my day. slept in, worked, yoga, followed by a nice and quiet dinner with my work friends, and ended with a 3 way call with my besties. it was stress free and no one got hurt. a good start to 26 for sure.

birthday in Georgetown...in pictures

one of my favorite things to do is to go into Anthropologie to see the beautiful displays. i have so many random keys that i think i could totally do this to a wall in our new place!


while there, we ran into a familiar face. Katie, a girl J and i both knew from Shepherdstown was working. she's been interning at Anthropologie in the display department. i love her work! i hope she gets the job!!


we walked down to the new location of Georgetown Cupcakes and waited in line for what seemed like an hour (it was worth it if you asked me). J kept sitting every chance he got and enjoyed his phone's company.


furiously working with cupcakes, these girls are like cupcake elves!


i got extras for friends & J's parents...and plenty of Red Velvet cupcakes to last me til mid week!


we visited the market as well. everything...and i mean EVERYTHING looked so good!


creeping by the canal


i couldn't wait to eat my little cakes, so J and i sat on a bench by the water and i gorged!

i guess i should start watching what i eat! my metabolism is probably not what it was at 25! ha!

25 aint so bad.

today i turned 25. J took me down to Georgetown for my favorite cuppycakes...YUM!!!



woo! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

Happy 3rd Birthday!

what a beautiful fall day to turn 3! for little C's birthday, we donated a book to the local library! i thought it was a great way to give back, and teach him the kindness of giving/sharing, even on his own special day.

"Gator" is about a forgotten carousel alligator who goes on a journey to bring laughter back to the carousel and his friends. C and i read the other book to this series and i remembered him loving it...so why not add another to the library's collection.

i still can't believe that he's three. i mean, i still remember my first day with him so vividly. now he's this little man who loves Pad Thai (we celebrated his birthday with having some for lunch) and sleeps on a big boy bed. wow.

in celebration.

time with the family is always a good thing. isen't it? i had a lovely day helping my yai with the little things in her tiny kitchen (it used to be sooo much bigger!) and hanging out with the family. today, we celebrated my little cousin's 3rd birthday...and J's too!

Happy Birthday Love!
