my favorite birthday week surprise so far :)
Toph surprised me with family pics for my birthday!!
After Toph went to class the other day I found a note from him that said,
"Be ready by 3 to take family pictures. Happy birthday!"
Such a great surprise!
It was so fun to go out in our neighborhood and get some great shots of our little family.
I've been wanting good pictures of all three of us for a while and Toph must've been listening.
I should really talk around him more.

turning 23 in my birthday(jump)suit.
For my special day, here are 23 things about me, with commentary by me:
(Stop reading now if you want to. We'll still be cool.)
I have 6 siblings and they're all funny (funny? or crazy? verdicts still out.).
I've been a member my whole life.
I still spin the stem off my apple every time to see who I'll marry (and I cheat to make it to 'T'.)
I'm pretty sure I cried when Rory graduated from HS. (And during every subsequent viewing of the "Graduation" episode. Let's be real.)

I'm super proud of making it through 20 hours of pitocin encouraged labor naturally (the 2 hours of pushing were simply the bees knees).
I get sticker shock in Wal-Mart (freepiling has ruined me).
My fave Halloween costume ever was when I went as The Statue of Liberty (I was 11-ish).
I sit Indian style whenever possible (I think I mean "Native American style?").
I have an associates degree and a bachelor's degree but no HS diploma.
I'll take gummy bears over chocolate any. day. of. the. week.
My BF from college is serving a mission in Stockholm, Sweden. (she gets home Dec. 3rd!!)
Toph and I try to re-read the Harry Potter Series every Christmas break (tis the season!).
I love Scrabble and I love being the score keeper (cuz then I get to make up names for the players. ex: "Meredith" turns into "Hotty Mc'hotwinner." ).
Whenever "MmmBop" comes on the radio, I want to call my older sister to let her know (so we can listen/rejoice together!)
Toph and I celebrate birthday week (best thing I ever came up with).
My little brother is serving a mission in Samara, Russia (he comes home August 2011!!).
I LOVE Australian licorice (try it and you'll NEVER go back to Red Vines. Except when that's all there is available. Then you'll eat those Vines like they're going out of style.).
I knew my kid was gonna be a boy before we even got preggo (that's so Raven!).
Since moving into this apartment 15 months ago, I've changed my kitchen curtains 5 times.
If I was on Survivor, my one luxury item would be Tweezers (you do not want to see this un-tweezed people).
I read The Shape Of a Mother. Love it (It's a bit nakey though. Not in a dirty way but in a textbook kinda way. You know?).

my (very own!) sewing space.
We have this little niche in B's room that we felt all genius-y about shoving a desk into.
"What a great office! Wow, we're smart!"
But then we realized it's better to study on campus.
And the living room has the desktop in it so studying there works too ...
But what about the desk shoved in the niche?!
I got my own sewing/crafting space!
I'm in love.
(I didn't buy anything new for this space.
I just went on a scavenger hunt around my apartment for storage items. My fave.)

I'm feeling renewed creativity now.
Who knew that 3 feet by 2 feet could do so much good?

Who you gonna call??
Don't be fooled, those aren't real proton packs.
I made us some pretty uh-mazing lookalikes from spray painted trash though.
And Bronson really did attempt to cover himself in real slime/drool by the end of the night.
He's so method.
Happy Halloween!!
