Birthday 2010

I turned 29 this year, and realized something that shook me just a little bit. I can remember when my mom was 29! More accurately, I remember her birthday because she got a coffee mug that said "29 and holding" and it had a little lady holding on to the 9 for dear life.

Turning 29 hadn't bothered me in the least, I mean, look at my mom. If I follow in her footsteps, I'll just get hotter as I age.

But then I read this little gem from CNN: By the time we turn 30, women have lost 90% of their eggs. You know.. baby making eggs.

The next day I got this text from Tanner: "I thought I saw you earlier, but turns out it was just a younger girl who still has some eggs".

Sigh...

If I'd followed Mom's EXACT footsteps, I'd have an 8 year old and a 6 year old right now. No thanks... but still... I gotta wonder about the products that come from expired eggs...

Below, please enjoy some pics of the par-tay. (and note the adorable cake mom made!)
