I just wanted to share. We added pink walls (Brinn’s were green), changed up the furniture arrangement, and added a pretty chandelier. It’s time to get Brinn out of the crib, and into her big girl room!

Kelly and my mom planned an awesome baby shower for me! The

theme was a tea party.

I was so excited, because I hadn’t had a shower since my Juno-style

one back in August 1994 for Bryce!

The menu was amazing. We had mimosas (well, they did), fruit salad, finger sandwiches, baked brie (my FAVORITE)

my lemon pound cake tea pot cake

I think shaye must’ve received 20 outfits!

And she also got 3 pink bouncer seats that I registered for from Target. By the way, I will never register for anything at Target again.

Their return policy sucks.

Bob and I took the girls to the neighborhood Easter Egg hunt. Our neighborhood does a really nice job with this festivity for the children. Of course, I was a big, fat pregnant hog and would rather lay on the couch and stuff my face with Cadbury Eggs than go but alas, I stuff my swollen body in clothes that barely fit, get the girls dressed, and head out.

I am WAY too fat to walk to the Green, so we drive.

The first thing Maeve does, is ditch us for her friends. Thanks.

Second, Brinn has a major meltdown when she sees the giant bounce house.

Sigh. I hate those. Kids get killed in those. Brinn is extremely accident prone. I am too gigantic to fetch her out of that death trap.

After 20 minutes of screaming and running away from me, I finally drag her far away from the other children, and just let her start playing with those stupid, plastic eggs all over the ground. For crying out loud, what the hell are they waiting for? It seems to take an eternity for them to announce “go and get em”.

Brinn was too precious once it started. We let her stick about 10 eggs in her basket. If she’d grab more, we’d wait until she ran off, and throw the rest back on the ground for the other 400 kids. Then she decided she’d be a helper. She was picking up the eggs, and placing them in the other children’s baskets. I hear this desperate, pathetic voice behind me, “no, no!!!!…don’t touch his eggs!!!” Oh. My. Gawd. Seriously lady, she’s sharing, not STEALING. Crazy mom realizes Brinn is being sweet, and THEN smiles at me and tells me what a doll she is.

Right, 30 seconds ago she was a freaking kleptomaniac, wasn’t she?
People are nuts.

Here are pictures of the girls, and the bows are the best bows EVER!!!
BEST BOWS EVER! Shannon makes ALL of my bows, because she rocks!

I just got back from my appointment. I was in the God forsaken office for 3 hours!!!
According to my ultrasound the baby is growing just fine with the SUA (just a little below 50%), and she’s approximately 2.3lbs. All of her organs look great!
The placenta previa has corrected itself, YAY!
I failed my gestational diabetes test! BOO!!!!!
So I’m sitting here drowning myself in a bowl of jelly belly’s. My next GD test is Monday so send me good luck vibes!

Bob, my mom and I left for the doctor’s office first thing the morning after Christmas.
Today was the BIG determination day.
Bob was sure it’s a boy, I’m thinking girl.
Bob is ticking me off and taking calls during the entire ultrasound.
What a beautiful baby. Measuring perfect. Long legs. Over a pound. Oh wait…w a i t. I see it. I turned to Bob and said, “looks like you’ll be paying for another wedding.” He looked at me, my mom laughed, and the tech finally says, “I’m tryinreaaaal hard to find you a penis, but this baby is 100% girl”.
I did find out I had placenta previa, and a condition called SUA. Single Umbilical Artery. http://www.womens-health.co.uk/sua.asp
Basically, a reason to freak me out for the rest of my pregnancy, and for them to constantly monitor me. I was put on a high fat diet to be sure she’d gain weight. I was encouraged to stay off of GOOGLE and the internet.
Right, the first thing I did, GOOGLE. Big mistake!
