This year my birthday consisted of me driving Conner to work since we share a car. Then eating a FREE Denny's grand slam! Thank you Denny's. Then I took all my returns that I had been saving for the next time I ran errands and some of my birthday money from family, and decided to use all the return credit on stuff that I wanted! How fun, a self-made shopping spree that I previously had paid for. Sounds like guilt-free shopping paradise to me! I spent the entire day at Kohl's, Ross, and Target carefully selecting things that I wanted. Then Conner informed me that he had gotten a ride home from work, so I wouldn't have to pick him up. He comes through the door with a sad look on his face, so I assumed he had a bad day,(he had been sick all weekend) He asked if we could find his wallet and go to the store. He had gotten a ride home to pick me up some flowers, but had left his wallet at home. Poor Conner he can NEVER catch a break. I reluctantly agreed (the flowers are already dead btw) and because I am pregnant and STARVING I didn't protest when he offered to make me a steak for dinner. Yummy. We spent the rest of the night dancing, laughing and hanging out with no electronics! MY FAVORITE BIRTHDAY to date.
It is weird now that I am kinda grown up, all I want to do on my birthday is have a day free of responsibility and to hang out with my husband with NO distractions. If you had told me that all I would be doing on my birthday was eating breakfast by myself and staying in all night, I probably would have been HIGHLY disappointed. I am a social person who LOVES parties and fun! However spending my last birthday before I become a full-time parent "just" hanging out with Conner & relaxing was the best! I know that times like these are soon to be lost once this little one comes, so I am soaking up every second of it!
Here are 22 things about myself since I am 22.
1. My middle name is Amelia.
2. I have my Associates Degree.
3. I am Mormon.
4. I love getting the most for my money, even if I don't need it. Clearance=I NEED IT
5. Quilting is something that I love, but am not yet patient enough to master.
6. I drink a ridiculous amount of water.
7. Boneless Buffalo Wings are my kryptonite. Buy me some and I will be your BEST FRIEND
8. Decorating is a passion of mine, but my wallet doesn't support my endeavors quite yet, therefore I love DIY projects that let me get close.
9. TV show characters are my closest friends. Not true, but I do feel pathetically sad when a series ends.
10. I hate my Iphone. I cracked it really bad a few months ago and now DESPISE using it for anything.
11. Conner and I usually stay in 6 out of 7 nights a week watching movies and eating. We live a boring life.
12. I have found a love/hate relationship with ironing thanks to Conner's uniforms.
13. I want a French Bulldog Puppy REALLY REALLY REALLY bad.
14. I like being busy and stressed out. If I have nothing to do I get anxious very easily. I feel like there is something I should be doing.
15. I love cleaning, but despise straightening up. I can clean a bathroom in 10 minutes flat, but picking up my bedroom, thats a 4 hour job at least. I just don't understand.
16. I hate talking on the phone & texting. I prefer the real thing please.
17. People watching is a hobby I highly enjoy.
18. If I was a millionaire, I would have REALLY nice handbags, and nails. I associate those two things with high class for some reason..
19. A clean kitchen after dinner makes me so happy inside.
20. I love living in California and am sooooo happy to have moved back!
21. I love my best friend/husband/love of my life & can't wait for him to be a DADDY!! He will be the most adorable dad ever. I fell in love with him because I saw his dad potential! I couldn't have picked a better example for my children to follow!
22. By this time next year I will have a 9 month old.. SAY WHAT?!?!
