If you didn't know, it was my birthday a couple of weeks ago (June 21). I love birthdays!! I even celebrate my 1/2 birthday... even if it's nothing more than me telling myself "Happy 1/2 birthday". :) This year I turned the big 29. Truly, I felt a little old. Now, I don't know about you, but when you are an adult, birthdays tend to not be as much fun as when you were a kid. For me, it's namely because I usually have to work on my birthday. Even with working, it was still a great birthday.
Since I've become a Mom, I've become very bad at spending money on myself. Particularly when someone gives me $ or a gift card... most of the cash usually gets dumped into the bank account and spent on groceries or bills... gift cards, since they're usually for Target, get spent on diapers. Not really a lot of fun. However, this year I have made a committment to myself to spend my birthday $ only on ME.
So I'm faced with a tough decision: (I'm already saving up to buy a Northface fleece) but with the rest of the money should I buy some fun jewelry or fun stuff for my kitchen?

Happy birthday, again! I love some kitchen stuff....that's my vote!
Jewelry of course, a woman can never have too many diamonds or too many shoes :-)
I totally do the same thing. This year, Josh forced me to buy myself something on amazon. I bought super expensive face cream. It sounds silly to type that out, but the fact is, I love skin care products and I never buy them now because of other more pressing expenses in my life. ;) So splurge E, splurge!
kitchen stuff!
(Happy belated birthday, Ehlan!)
Kitchen stuff counts as stuff for the family--jewelry is all yours, baby (at least until Olivia is old enough to sneak it from you!). ;)
