weekends rock

This is what I have been waking up to almost every Saturday morning.Siena and the man making breakfast... like full on eggs, bacon, pancakes, toast, and coffee (can you tell how happy the last one makes me?)It's the most amazing new tradition because it means that 1. I got to sleep in AND 2. I can eat a ginormous amount of food without having to lift a finger to make it!

Sometimes he even cleans up... I know...something crazy is going on out here.

suprise!

Last week someone actually had the nerve to surprise me...can you believe it!?! I know...me and surprises usually don't mix, however, this was such a nice surprise, I actually didn't mind at all. Some of the gals threw me a surprise baby shower! It was suppose to just be a regular playdate but it was all a ruse... I think Siena was as shocked as I was. When they opened the door and yelled surprise she turned around and high-tailed it back to the car! We had a soup and salad bar and some amazing cupcakes- which I ate about half a dozen of (I'm allowed it's my shower). They also surprised me with a video chat with my bff in Russia... which of course left me bawling because apparently that is what hormonal pregnant women do...ugh. It was such a nice day and now I feel like we are officially ready for baby to make an appearance. Yes- I am giving the baby permission to come. I have control issues- did you seriously think I'd be ok with her coming any old times she pleases??? Ok I like the "illusion" of control...don't judge.

happy v-day

We love Valentine's day around here. I love it because it's an excuse to decorate the house and make a bunch of random crafts, and Siena loves it because everything is pink! We decided to have a party again this year as sort of our last big hurrah before the newest shrimp arrives in a few weeks. We decorated treats, exchanges valentines, made crafts, and ate a bunch of food- it was a little crazy at times (20 kids will do that I guess) but so much fun! Luckily, I have amazing friends who helped clean up before everyone took off....and I left everything else for B to clean up later...happy valentines day honey!!!! I know how much vacuuming rocks your world!
