25 Weeks

Well this week has been a milestone. Not a pregnancy one but a milestone in my own adult life...today I mailed in my bar card along with my request for inactive status...It was a little bit more painful than I imagined...I mean that gold card cost me and continues to cost me (and Kyle) quite a pretty penny. Right when the panic attack set in I quickly realized what I was trading it in for...once that realization hit I laughed to myself and thought, Hell they can keep it if they want to...I'm most definitely on to bigger and better things!!!

Gardenias

Our gardenia bushes are blooming and I've got gardenias all over my house. I'm in heaven!!!!

24 weeks and a HUGE announcement

So heres another picture of the bump in my work restroom (I know I know it's getting a little ridiculous). I'm getting rather big and so are the girls (DD)!! Went to the doctor and got weighed and I'm up to about 15 pounds total weight gain but I think I could shave at least 1-2 pounds off that since it was a late afternoon appointment...duh one can use pregnancy math when calculating her weight gain...it's a privilege earned during pregnancy.

So on to the big announcement because the 15 pound weight gain although BIG is not the HUGE announcement. Today I told my boss that I would not be returning to work after the baby is born. I was so nervous and I still am about what the future will hold but I'm really excited for this new phase in my life. I know it will be the absolute HARDEST thing that I'll do in my life but I'm so ready for it. Spending at best 1 1/2 hours with C a night simply wasn't enough. I'm also blessed that I have such an amazing husband that works so hard to make this move to STAY AT HOME MOM possible.

Check back in on my after the adrenalin wears off and see if I'm still this excited. Stick around and check out the shenanigans we get ourselves into...me and my expanding brood.

23 Weeks

So I realize that most of my pictures occur in various bathrooms (be it at work or home) but that's where I find the largest mirrors.

This week I had my dreaded glucose testing. Just hate that stuff! Hopefully I won't have to worry about that again.

Here are a few pictures of me in different outfits this week. Obviously I have a thing for green but watch out I've got some turquoise skinny pants/jeans heading my way that I couldn't be more excited about.

I hope that everyone has a fantastic Easter and is careful if they're traveling.

22 weeks

I suppose all bump related pictures will occur in my work bathroom although I hope not

20 weeks...half way there

Thought I'd share a bump picture with you guys. Truth is I got bored at work and picture taking in the bathroom is the next logical step...right?

I know I know...

It's been forever since I've authored a post BUT things have been hectic around here...I'm growing a baby for crying out loud.

I just stopped by to wish everyone a Happy Valentine's Day and to share a funny C moment that happened this morning....so per her new usual...she got up and walked in to our bedroom around 6:15...tripped over some of Kyle's dress shoes (it's her way of making sure we're all awake) then fell over Vivian (this lets me know to get ready to scoop her up and put her in bed with us...under the cobers of course). She got in bed and asked where Daddy was as usual and I pointed out where Kyle was laying. She smacks around face for a little and then after a bit she says, "Daddy's face is so soft...Mommy's face is not..." and Kyle breaks out laughing...where's the love?

Daggers to the heart....
