I went shopping today... and totally forgot that today's Saturday. The stupidity, what was I thinking. I was just about ready to turn around and leave once I realised that but yea, this shopping was for my big girl's birthday so it had to be done since I don't really have much time going to town coming two weeks.
I bought loads of fun stuff for a relatively small price since they are downpricing the mid-season sale items everywhere. I bought some cute packing paper, some coloured crêpe paper for decoration later on, balloons and the usual birthday stuff. Even clear plastic cups were on sale. Why? Are they totally out of fashion next season? Is their expiry date coming up? Who knows... In these cases, I don't ask questions, I just fill up my cart and go ;)
Also bought some very cute wooden bookmarks that were on sale, only 40 cts each! They will be for the kids-gift bags that will be given after the party. I adore those gift bags. What woman doesn't like a goody bag! Even as a kid I think the handing out of these gift bags was my favourite part of the whole day. So I'm thrilled to be making some of my own now for my birthday-girl. (despite the fact that she's only turning two and she won't really miss them if we didn't hand anything out...)
Aaaaah I'm so much looking forward to this day! Much more so than a year ago, I was really dreading her first birthday, my little baby turning one. But now, she's seriously ready to be a 2-year-old and I think I'm ready too.
