birthday girl.

How? How is Ells 1 already? I swear it took approx. 1.5 million years for PG to reach his first birthday.

We spent her birthday up in N. Utah with the in laws and just our little family. We all went out for Mexican (beans and rice are her favorite) and she didn't once think about trying her birthday cupcake. Seriously, she doesn't like sweets. Seriously.....seriously - who's kid is this?

12 hours old.

8,760 hours old. Eating birthday beans.

I was hoping she'd look at least 1% like me.

Nope. 100% not like me. But I'll take her anyway.

a sea of biebers...

I can honestly say I had no idea who Justin Bieber was until Glee Episode #13 (season 2).

Went to the mall last week for something only the mall could offer, and instead of the normal teenage potluck of mall rats, I noticed a sea of Bieber doppelgangers. Apparently I didn't get the memo. How embarrassing.

Also - What is happening in the world?

mother's day.

Happy Mother's Day Mom!

(a day late and a dollar short - story of my life. I DID talk to her several times on Mother's Day, not to fret).

Love you mom.

And who couldn't love this lady?

Seriously, I'm a lucky gal.

this morning I.....

may or may not have ordered something from Hiphopbling.com

There's a first time for everything, right?

8 years = eternity? Maybe....

Today D and I celebrate our 8 year anniversary. This morning we both decided that 8 years has felt like an eternity (in a good way?). Maybe its because we were basically children when we got married...

love you babe.

(here is one of our engagement pics. Only a select few were lucky enough to get one in their invites.)

yup.
