.440 happy b*day tyti ❤

my baby cousin, tytiana, turned 12 and had a epic, "turn down for what" type of party that i am sure she will remember for years to come. truthfully, i didn't even know who the dollar boyz was until this party and i am still a bit perplexed by their fame. yet, the moment they hit the stage, tweens, dripping with neon jewelry from fingers and arms and necks and ears, screamed and twirled and cried out excitedly as a group of hip-hop youngsters danced rhythmic circles around bass infused beats pumped out by a dj perched in a corner. it was überly awesome, this party was, and exceptionally exhausting. we came. we saw. we danced. we glowed. and when all was said and done, we had a blast and a half with not a bit of energy left over!

with all of the "running around like a chicken with my head cut off" chaos that comes with toddlers and birthdays and gifts and decorations, i didn't, quite, have the time to take any real photos during toots party (that was supposed to be just cake and ice-cream). in fact, if it wasn't for my friend, kim, i wouldn't have any pictures of the monumental moments you're supposed to get as a mother, to assure future cooing when your sweet, tiny toddler becomes a hormone controlled teen. these are just a few that i was able to get early on, pre-party madness...
