Adorable First Birthday

I feel like I’ve talked about this before, but I don’t really like babies.

I know, I know, I am a horrible person.

I mean, I don’t HATE babies by any means, and I want babies (one day very very very very far in the future), and have babysat many a very nice baby, but I don’t really go all crazy for babies like other people seem to (like my boyfriend, much to my horror). I go crazy for puppies! just not really babies (though I do take very good care of them so if anyone needs a babysitter, I have references).

but I looooooooooove everything that comes with babies besides the baby. Like clothing and furniture and decorations and events.  Baby Halloween costumes make my heart melt just a little bit. They are just so damn cute.

But Melissa over at Ruby Press threw the most adorable party for her kid’s first birthday.

I want to go to this baby birthday party! I never would have even thought of making the baby’s face into a cupcake decoration, ingenious!

Happy birthday Sammy and very well done Melissa.

I have about 7 coats, no joke. SEVEN. When you move from California to Toronto,  you tend to accumulate a lot of cold-weather clothing. I do not even want to know how many scarves I own. And even though THREE out of those SEVEN coats are black, this coat by Steven Madden  in so cute (just look at the collar!!!).

I have a problem.
