\"\"<\/a>It might just be a miracle! It’s 65 degrees outside today and just beautiful. Charlie and I met our very good friends Lindsay and her Mommy, Ms. Megan, at Cafe Selmarie (our resident yummy bakery\/cafe) for brunch and a nice stroll. It was the very first time we have left the house without a coat, and Charlie was NOT happy to come inside. I have been letting her exercise her independence (or maybe just rest my arms) by walking up the back stairs by herself (with a spotter in back, of course)…and she loves it….especially when I direct her towards the screen door and she actually follows direction. She did not love the fact that I closed the door behind us and started carrying her to her crib for naptime. I think this little girl is going to love being outside this summer. It’s a good thing, too, because some sunshine is very much needed. <\/p>\n
So my birthday is next Wednesday, the 11th. Yup, I’m gonna be the big 31. I think because last year was an actual milestone…30 felt like a big deal and I really wanted to celebrate it. This year, I’m shocked at how it snuck up on me. And if you know me, you know that I LOVE my birthday. What better chance do you have throughout the year to actually make it all.about.you? <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Anyway, this year I asked Daddy and Charlie for a new pair of running shoes and some new workout pants from my favorite splurge store, Lululemon (www.lululemon.com<\/a>). The pants are pricey, but doggone it if they aren’t the MOST comfortable things you’ve ever put on your body. It was a resolution last year to buy a new pair on my birthday every year. Considering that I have worn them at least 3-4 days a week since last March, I would say they are a worthy investment.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Other than those two things, I don’t really know what to ask for this year. Daddy says I am super hard to buy for…I can’t help it that my love language is “gifts”, can I? That’s just how God made me. \ud83d\ude09 I told him to surprise me with something thoughtful and sweet…something that lets me know he’s thinking about me. That’s not such a tall order, is it?<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

I will leave you with my latest find. Yesterday, Charlie and I popped into Whole Foods for a treat. I don’t frequent WF, but I do like to stop in there once a month or so to check out their “hot” bar and buy a few indulgences, like pesto deviled eggs and coconut macaroons. Now that I’ve discovered Trader Joe’s, I can never return to just any grocery store. But Whole Foods, that’s for special days! Anyway, on our way to check out, I was craving some dark chocolate. I found THE MOST AMAZING dark chocolate you will ever taste…seriously…it is phenomenal. And they have a website, aren’t we lucky?? It’s www.chocolove.com<\/a>. Check it out. If you love dark chocolate with raspberry, you are in luck…<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
