Whoa Mamma!

If this photo frightens you, don't worry, you're not the only one! Dillon took this picture and the poor thing is not a little bit squeemish when it comes to my protrusion. He literally will run and hide if I threaten to expose it, so he was very brave. I think having to bring him to my Dr. appointments has had something to do with his issues. Oh, and maybe my wicked awesome (probably world record breaking) stretch marks!

I just figured that now that I'm officially more pregnant than I have ever been, I'd post a belly pic... Here she is people. I'm glad Dillon didn't get my head in the picture b/c I'm sure I was wincing. I usually am. Most of the baby's movements cause me a certain level of discomfort, oh and sitting and standing, bending, walking etc.

Really, though, I feel pretty good and that is such a blessing.

I got THREE packages in the mail today! You know you're destined for a good day when that happens!

I am one of those "very particular about my bag" types of people. I do tend to have a bag fetish. However, part of the fun of shopping for purses, bags etc. is getting a totally amazing deal. It wasn't so much the case with this bag. When my sister in law was visiting, she had one similar to this and I loved it. Soo... I went to the website, and as soon as I saw this particular one I knew we were destined for each other. It's the perfect bag b/c it does not HAVE to be a diaper bag, but it will work GREAT as one. It's just the right size, and will last forever! I know b/c I got James a Timbuk2 bag his first year of med school and it still looks new! I hunted the web for a bargain to no avail and ended up spending as much for it as I've probably spent on all the bags in my closet combined (might be exaggerating a little.. a talent of mine)! Anyway, it produced a huge smile on my face.




I also got an order of scrapbook paper (for baby announcements) and my very first issue of this magazine..

We're dog-sitting for my mom this week. It's been fun.......... for the kids. I love Watson, but I just don't love having another person to look after and feed and yell at. Yes, yell at. Luckily, he's pretty low maintenance and GREAT with the kids.



Like I said, the kids are loving having him here and will probably really miss him once my mom comes back to fetch him.

Ok - I'm off to say hello to my husband who I haven't seen in a couple of days! And I may work in some scrappin' time today wahoo!
