this week started out great! monday was my 24th birthday! is it weird to think that i feel so old... i remember being younger wondering what my life would be like at 22, 23, 24... would i still be in college? would i be married? have a kid or two? it's crazy that i'm the age i always wondered about. i'd have to say that life is pretty great at 24 even though i don't feel like i really am this age. is it just me or are birthdays just weird once you get older?
thankfully brian had the day off and we planned on a date out without the babe. my poor quinn had her 12 month doctors appointment that day and got a shot in each leg and arm. :( FOUR shots and a thumb prick for a blood sample made for one very sad sad girl. i felt bad leaving her at brian's parents after all of that but thankfully she got a good nap in and always has the time of her life playing over there being spoiled by them so she was set! we headed off to ikea to grab a few things (our nightstand lamps have been without working bulbs for almost a year! am i slacker or what?! ...not really thaaat much of slacker just hate going all the way there for one thing with a very needy baby that HAS to have her naps at home!), had a late lunch/early dinner at the cheesecake factory (delicious!!), window shopped while waiting to see a movie, and then ordered some cheesecake to go after the movie. after we picked up and got the babe in bed for the night we enjoyed our cheesecake and caught up on our shows. it was sooo nice just to get out only the two of us! it was a much need day!
the rest of the week was all about getting ready for quinn's first birthday party! i've never thrown anything by myself but i'd say it was a success! everything turned out great and without going toooo overboard i was happy i spent the time i did on the few things that made it a little extra special. (i know, she won't remember a thing. but it was still worth it and i had fun doing it!)
i loved having a great beginning to a busy week. and loved that it ended perfectly with a little party celebrating our favorite one year old with our favorite people!
