Happy Birthday! I treat myself to multiple day special things/experiences during the week of my birthday too! And I love that ring – very cute!

Aw Happy Birthday! My bday is in a little less than a month and I treated myself to my birthday present this past week – 2 new pairs of 7 for all mankind jeans, LOL! Haven’t found a pair that fit right since #2 was born, and I found TWO at Nordstrom Rack this week. Couldn’t pass it up.

Love the ring by the way!

Happy Birthday! Great idea on the gifts!

For my birthday this year, I’m spreading my gifts to myself out over the whole year.

1. Get more sleep – check
2. Exercise and get MY body back – next on the list
3. Finish our bathroom remodel – in progress
4. Eat better – check
5. Get a social life (I tend to be a home-body) – in progress

All these = happier me!

You can definitely fit 5 more gifts in over 24 hours!

Happy Birthday Eve. Sometimes the smallest things are the best. For my birthday in 6 months I want to get pregnant. You know you could split up all these things and celebrate a 1/2 birthday in November. Just a thought

A VERY happy birthday to you, Whitney!!

I loved every single one of your birthday treats. =)

What I want most for my next birthday is a gorgeous sweater. I forgot to buy something warm to wear before I stopped shopping and I’ve been freezing my butt off for the past few months. Not just a sweatshirt or a humdrum utilitarian sweater, but something fabulous…preferably with a little bling.

Happy birthday! I like your way of thinking!
(I also wanted to share with you that I also love Wacoal brand. I generally get mine for about half the price of MSRP at Stein Mart so that I can get 2 instead of just 1. Wacoal does wonderful fittings and it is true, most women wear the wrong size! Impressive!)

I always forget my birthday, so, for this Mother’s Day, I definitely took the time (after I cleaned the house and worked at my job) to do something for MYSELF.

I think you could totally fit 5 more gifts in the next 24 hours!

Happy birthday! I love that ring! And also, I love love love fish tacos. Pretty much if it is on the menu, I eat them. They are never the same as good California fish tacos.

Jon’s birthday is the day before mine so it never feels like a celebration. Instead I bought myself an Allora necklace for Mother’s Day and a Nook.

And my Us Weekly subscription is my yearly gift to myself. Read it cover to cover as soon as it shows up every week.

Happy, happy day. I love that you’ve taken the initiative to give yourself the birthday you want.

I say this as I need to start planning the party I’m throwing for myself next month

What a great idea! I love your “gifts” thus far.

I’ve been thinking incessantly about this fingerprint necklacke that I saw on amalah.com and fell in love with. I’d love to get my kids or my parents or my husbands fingerprints.

I also would like a day of solitude in my own home. It’s something I desperately miss. THAT would be a great gift.
