i picked out a birthday present! and levi already bought it for me! i've been having a really tough time picking out birthday presents...probably because i love surprises so much. but it's really nice to choose something too.
levi and i were looking at this shop together online, and we saw this print. we looked at each other, and at the same time, i said, "that is soooo me" and he said, "that is soooo you."
i know it's a little juvenile being based on a fairy tale and all, but it is just too perfect, and i love it. the princess and the pea has always been my story. you know how i told you yesterday that i was sensitive? i wasn't lying. i'm sensitive in everrrry way, especially to touch and sound. and i love noel young's illustrations. they're so detailed and quirky.
i'd really like these too:
i miiiight get these though:
j.crew again (here and here). there's a skirt there that i like too, but i couldn't find a photo online.
other things on my "dream" birthday list:
- a couch
- a yellow kitchenaid standup mixer
- a big, huge, soft, fluffy, white rug for our bedroom to cover the entire carpet
- lots of pretty skirts
- cute sandals with squishy soles
- an unlimited membership to a pilates studio
- delicious cupcakes
- a golden doodle puppy (isn't that name the silliest??)
i've missed shopping.
oh and by the way...I have a yellow kitchen aid, and its my favorite ! My mother says they are "art for your kitchen"

ReplyDeleteOH, KITCHENAID MIXER. I've been lusting after that for the longest time! and it would fit perfectly in with your new navy + yellow kitchen. I've never heard of a golden doodle puppy (who came with that name anyway?!) but I like it already (:
ReplyDeleteOh lordy, a kitchen aid stand up mixer is my .... my dream utensil I suppose?
ReplyDeleteThey are so pretty.
Someday YES IT SHALL BE MINE.

ReplyDeleteBirthdays! Yay! How I love blowing out a new candle each year, it means I am getting closer and closer to maturity!
ReplyDeleteSo Parkers surgery went great, besides him looking a little funny from swelling he is doing great!
Yay!
I am SUPER sensitive as well. It just means your a wonderful person! Hope your having a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteHave you seen the Fairy Tale Theater version of The Princess and the Pea? It's awesome!
ReplyDeletei lust for a kitchen aid mixer about twelve times a day. sigh. one day...
ReplyDeletei need a stand-up cake mixer too. That print is so cute!
ReplyDeleteMy birthday is fast approaching as well! Yay!
ReplyDeleteaww! Golden Doodle puppies! A friend of mine just got one of those - - soooo cute! Although I have learned one important thing about myself within the last year: I am not responsible enough for a dog. I thought I was until I got a cat - - talk about freedom. Cats practically take care of themselves and then come purr and cuddle afterwards!
ReplyDeleteAnyway, love your blog - -and golden doodles! {Yay for your move, too!}
Ohhhhhhh, that train case is delicious! Levi have a site yet? Ah ha.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great print. Soo funny and adorable. I love that fairy tale so much. xox
