Tummy Tuesday #4

Tummy Tuesday!!!

Let me start off by saying a few things today.

1. I took a tummy tuesday pic this morning, but I have at least 45 chins in the picture so I'm not posting it. Yes, I know, by next week I will probably have 46 chins, but I will have to find a better angle. :)

2. My work blocked me from Bloglovin'. Oh the horror!!!! So if you don't receive any blog comment lovin from me, it's not because I'm not reading...it's because I'm reading from my phone and it's just too complicate to comment on my phone.

Okay, time for the weekly update!

How far along? 13 weeks. I feel like time is flying by!

Sleep? awful. and I know it will just get worse. But FH bought me a maternity body pillow which should come in the mail today or tomorrow, so I'm hoping that helps.

Maternity clothes? yes, yes, and yes. I guess the good news is that since I am in them so early, I will get lots of use out of them.

Best moment this week? going to the doctor today and hoping this is the best moment! we should hear the heartbeat and I am praying that she has my test results back so she can tell us the results in person.

Miss anything? the sun. I laid out this weekend and I only lasted about 30 minutes. I got burnt and the heat seriously kills me....normally by now I have a great tan, but this summer I'm vampire-status.

Movement? I swear that on Friday I felt movement. I know it's kinda early, but I read that with your second pregnancy, you can feel it a lot sooner since you know what it feels like. It was such a cool feeling!

Size of the baby? a lemon

Food cravings? pizza, all day, errday. still not loving Mexican food, poor FH.

Morning sickness? nope

Gender? finding out this week! I still feel like it's a boy, but I have honestly decided I am super good either way. I would love a boy because FH needs another man in the house.....but I know exactly what to do with a girl. Plus I love the idea of 3 sisters, even if they are 10 years apart. Not to mention, I have tons of girl clothes already...

Bed rest? no. but I do nap a lot still.

Limitations? I cannot move fast. I sat on the floor last night while online shopping and I swear it took me an hour to get back up. My back kills me when I lay down or sit on the floor so I have to wait until the pain goes away to get up. It makes me feel like I am 900 years old.

Pregnancy symptoms? just my back.

Wedding rings? I've been tempted to take them off since I try to walk often and each time I walk, my fingers swell a good bit. But I'm just not ready to give them up yet.

Looking forward to? finding out the gender! And finding out the results of the downs test.

That's all for now! Happy Tuesday! Pin It Now!

A Day in the Life of....

A day in the life of a pregnant lady.
Because I know you are all interested.
This is what happens when fat people get fatter, and blame it on a baby bump.

5:00 AM Hit Snooze.

5:20ish roll my big self outta bed, holding back in full on pregnant lady stance. and high tail it to the bathroom. as if I didn't get up to go about 14 times during the night. Then proceed to get ready.

Do I wash my hair today? Probably not.
Do I dress up cute for work today? Probably not.
Did I shave my legs this week? Probably not.
Should I get ready in 5 seconds so that I have more time to eat breakfast? Definitely yes!

6:15ish leave for work

Today is going to be a good day.
I have lots of energy.
I will NOT nap when I get off work today.
I repeat I will not take a nap.

6:30 work, work, work.

My back hurts.
I have to go to the bathroom.
Is it time to eat yet?
Is it time to go home yet?

10:30 breaktime. One mile walk with my work BFF, who is also pregnant. We are a sight to see when we are walking.

I can't breathe.
It's hot outside.
My thighs are rubbing together.
Can I take my bra off?
How come we are so much slower now?

11:30 lunchtime. Holla! I normally eat in the breakroom alone reading my book. I'm lame....but I like to read while I eat. Or else I leave the building which normally results in bad decisions, like Taco Bell.

12:00 work, work, work.

Oh my goodness, I'm so full!!!!
Wow, I'm sleepy. I can't wait to get home but I am NOT going to nap. I repeat, I am not going to nap this afternoon.

2:30 breaktime. Time to walk again.

Seriously, is break time not over yet?
I feel like we have been walking for hours.
Gossip, gossip, gossip.
I have to go to the bathroom.

3:00 time to go home.

I should probably go run some errands.
But it's just too hot.
If I could go home and put on some comfty clothes, I could run errands then.
I have to go to the bathroom.
I will not take a nap.

3:30 I'm just going to sit in this recliner and read/watch tv until FH gets home. Just relax.

I will not take a nap.

5:00 wake up from a nap.

Whaat?? How did that happen?
No clue, but man that felt nice.
I'm pretty sure I can't get up, my back hurts.

6:00ish Time to feed my face. More than likely going out to eat because cooking = dirty dishes. And nobody likes dirty dishes.

OMG I'm so full.
I can't even walk.
FH, I swear I am never eating again.
Will you get me a piece of cake while you are in the kitchen?

7:00 TV time, lazy time, UNO time, maybe walk around the neighborhood but probably not. I'm still tired from that nap I took.


9:00 time for bed. I'm gonna read a little before I go to sleep.

9:03 okay that's enough reading, I'm exhausted.

Please note, this is a day in the life of a pregnany lady while her kids are not at home. This is not a typical day in the life of a pregnant mom of twins. That one includes a lot less napping and a lot more refereeing and pulling out my hair. I'll save that one for later.

Happy Thursday Y'all!
I am soooooo ready for Friday! Pin It Now!

Father's Day

Okay, okay, so I'm a little behind.
But I knew I had a lot of pictures and for some reason I have been too lazy to upload them until now.....so I am just now posting about the weekend. It happens.
And now my computer is being slow. #firstworldproblems

So we celebrated Father's Day on Saturday because Sunday the girls went with their Dad.
And when I say went with their Dad, I mean they are not coming home for two whole weeks! It's so quiet in our house right now!

We started out the morning with presents.
And guess what FH wanted?
House shoes.
Did I mention that it's June and HOT outside.
House shoes are not sold ANYWHERE in Memphis.
And I didn't even think about this until like the week of so I keep telling him I swear his house shoes are coming eventually in the mail.

Kate picked out a sweatshirt for FH because they share a love for TN. I let her get it because it was on super duper clearance, mainly because no one in their right mind buys a sweatshirt in June.
She was proud of her gift.

And I must say, her gift was much better than what I got my stepdad.
But what can you buy the man who has everything he could want?
He asked for socks so he got socks!
And the girls are killing me in this picture....

Then it was on to breakfast and puzzle putting-together.
This puzzle has taken over my table.
I can't say I'm happy about that, but I love when the three of them do projects together so I'll survive.


They are pretty hardcore about putting that thing together.

We decided to celebrate Father's Day at Incredible Pizza.
Because we all love playing games and I wanted to blow $100 in like 25 seconds.
We had TONS of fun.
FH and I spend ALL of our money on this game.

We always try to win an iPad. Which we already have AND we have spent enough money on this game that we could have bought another iPad by now...but it's fun and I am DYING to win it!
Seems impossible, but I saw a girl win once.

Saturday night we spent some time planting flowers for the front porch.
And by "we" I mean I watched, FH instructed, and the girls planted.
One of the nine million reasons why I love FH, his patience.
He sat there and let them do all the work while I was cringing thinking the money we spent on flowers was going to go to waste because they were killing them....but they turned out great. And I know the girls had fun planting them.







Kate drew a picture and made a prediction about the baby.
Please note, this is just a prediction, we don't know yet!

And FH had fun goofing off with the girls.

All in all, it was a GREAT father's day.
We couldn't ask for a better stepdad and future dad!!!

Love you FH.
Thanks for being the glue that keeps us all together. :)

Happy Hump Day Y'all!

Tummy Tuesday #3

It's that time again!

How far along? 12 weeks

One of these days, I swear I will look decent in a bump pic. This is right after a nap, I woke up and was like "holy bump!" so I had to snap a pic. That explains the hot mess express hairdo going on.

Also, sorry if you saw this pic on IG already. I informed FH that I put a bump pic on IG and you know what he said? "What? It's not even Tummy Tuesday!" Haha

Sleep? Not so great lately. Word on the street is that FH is getting me a maternity body pillow for my birthday so maybe once that gets here, I will be able to sleep better.

Maternity clothes? Funny you should ask. Of course I have been wearing maternity pants, but I've been holding onto my regular shirts. This helps because I normally just wear tshirts....and this morning, I put on a tshirt and had to change. It was a sad day. Luckily I have tshirts of about every size you can think of....and then I can move on to FH's tshirts.

Best moment this week? Being old. So apparently, if you are, ahem, older, the down syndrome test is not as accurate. I opted to have the test done just because if the baby does have downs, I want to prepare myself. Not because I would ever terminate for that reason, I just think it's nice to be prepared. So, anyways, the test didn't work. Yesterday, we went in and did a more advanced test which should give me the results for downs....but this advanced test also tells me the gender!!! Seriously! So within the next 2 weeks I will find out if it's a boy or a girl......sometimes it pays to be old! :) #Louie

Miss anything? sleeping on my stomach.

Movement? None that I can feel, but according to our ultrasound that baby is moving lots.

Size of the baby? a peach, about 3 inches long

Food cravings? none really, I am doing my best to eat healthy and avoid sweets. I'm not doing great but I'm trying hard.

Morning sickness? nope, not anymore. knock on wood.

Gender? Will know in two weeks! And I already have a gender reveal party plan......unfortunately it requires me to keep it a secret for about a week. That should be interesting....and my BFFs might kill me in the process for not telling them.

Bed rest? no.

Limitations? I get out of breath so easily. I am still walking a good bit, but have to pay close attention so that I don't overdo it.

Pregnancy symptoms? just my back hurting, but nothing too badly.

Wedding rings? Still hanging on, but getting tighter.

Looking forward to? finding out the gender! I can't wait to be able to start buying things.....

Happy Tummy Tuesday Y'all!!

the StYoungs do the ER

So, remember that time we went to the ER?
No, no, not the first time we went, I mean the second time.
And just in case you are keeping track, that's:
K: two trips to the ER
A: zero trips to the ER
And both times A got ridiculously jealous, because the ER is SO MUCH fun.....

So, the girls have been at my brother's house this week.
And my brother's house is like a farm.
They play outside all day long.
And they play hard.

Apparently on Tuesday, Kate fell off the four wheeler.
And no, she wasn't wearing a helmet, just so you know.
The four wheeler was also NOT moving yet.
Which is what makes this story sound so ridiculous.

So she was leaning on my brother's redneck gun rack that is attached to the four wheeler and it broke.
And down she went.

She was crying when I got there to pick her up.
But kids fall often, especially when they are playing hard, so I didn't think much of it.

When we got home, she wasn't being herself at all.
I figured she was just hot and tired.
But there was no huge bump on her face or anything, just a big red spot that actually kind of looked like a sunburn.

I should stop here and tell you that if there is no blood, we don't go to the doctor.
We just aren't doctor people unless completely necessary.

But the spot she hit when she fell was her temple.
So that's kind of scary.
And then she threw up.
I was able to convince myself that she threw up because she was hot and then drank a lot, so I still wasn't freaking out.
I talked to some friends and of course my mom, and decided I would just watch her. She should be fine.

And then she puked big time.
I felt like it was my sign to take her to get looked at.
I just knew I would NEVER forgive myself if something was really wrong and I just sat there while she napped and didn't do anything.

So off we went.
And I had to keep her awake in case she had a concussion.
Which was impossible.
We got to the ER and there was more puking.
There is nothing in the world worse than seeing your kid sick.

And then we waited.
And waited.
And waited.

The doctor ordered a cat scan to have her head looked at.
We found out TWO HOURS LATER that the cat scan in the ER was broken, so we were waiting on an ambulance to take her next door.

Please note: if I get a bill for this ambulance ride, I am going to go crazy on them. We literally could have WALKED her over instead of waiting on a ride. I refuse to pay for it.

We got to the ER around 7:30 and didn't leave until around 11:30.
The cat scan was clear, which was AWESOME.
But then I felt like we came for no reason.
Better safe than sorry though.


As you can see, she eventually perked up and this is around the point where I was wondering why we were still there since she seemed fine. Here she is with my nephew playing around. And eating french fries while we waited on the results.



We got home around midnight and were exhausted.
Did I mention that this pregnant lady didn't get a chance to eat dinner?
That never happens.

And I kid you not that Alex was jealous.
She said "Mom, why didn't I get to go to the ER with Kate? I was the first witness when she fell. And I have known her longer than anybody, even you since I met her in your belly!"

Can't argue with that.

I took off work the next day so I could stay home with her and needless to say, she was perfectly fine. I'm so grateful this was just a scare and nothing major.


Dear ER,
Thanks for being there for us when we need you. But I sure do hope we don't see you again for a LONG, LONG time.

Oh and just so I never, ever, ever forget a funny moment:

the baby is the size of a fig right now.
but of course the girls have no idea what a fig is.
Kate says goodnight to the baby every night.
Last night Kate said "goodnight little she meant to say fig"
I'll let you imagine what she actually said, trading the 'i' for an 'a' and adding a few extra letters.
And then she said "or whatever size it is right now"
I contained my laugh and corrected her.

And she said "oh okay, well what is that other thing then??"

Never a dull moment raising these Steppe sisters!!

Happy Friday y'all! Is it time to go home yet???

Tummy Tuesday #2

Okay, here we go again!

How far along? 11 weeks

Sleep? last week to sleep on my back! I'm slowly training myself to sleep on my side....but it's not pretty.

Maternity clothes? I'm happy to report that FH took me all over Memphis this past weekend and I finally found some maternity clothes that I don't hate. Just in time too, I'm busting out of my normal clothes. I'm grateful also because for some reason when I have on my maternity clothes, I look pregnant. When I have on my normal clothes, I just look like a chubster that needs to diet more.

Best moment this week? Definately walking out of the dressing room with more than enough clothes to buy.

Miss anything? My energy. It's slowly coming back to me though. I'm not coming home from work and going directly to my bed, so there's that.

Movement? Not that I can feel yet but from what I'm reading, the little bun is moving tons.

Size of the baby? a large plum

Food cravings? none really, thank goodness. I eat enough as it is, we don't need to add any cravings in!!

Morning sickness? No, hallelujah!

Gender? I feel like it's a boy. I'm not sure if this is wishful thinking or if it's just because this pregnancy feels so much different than last time. Of course last time there were two babies and I was ten years younger so obviously it's going to feel pretty different!

Bed rest? No.

Limitations? I haven't been able to exercise like I want to. I finally walked last night and my back was killing me afterwards.....I do walk 2 miles every week day on my breaks at work, so at least that's some exercise.

Pregnancy Symptoms? MY BACK. I know it's nothing more than a normal pregnant lady feels....but man, it's not fun.

Wedding Rings? Still on, but after I finish walking my fingers are super swollen. It quickly goes away though.

Looking forward to? the second trimester....almost there!!

Oh, and just so you know, we found out last week, there's only one baby! And he/she is growing healthy and looks great!

It's amazing the difference between the 6 week ultrasound and the 10 week ultrasound. Grow baby, Grow!




Happy Tummy Tuesday y'all!!

Five For Friday

Seeing as how lately, I am loving some lists on my blog posts, this link up is perfect for me! The goal is to write about five things from the week......easy peasy.

 

1. My kids are nuts. Apparently at Vacation Bible School the other night, they asked the group of kids "What is something that makes your life difficult?"

Kate's response: "Alex"

We found this out the other night driving to VBS. Alex informed Kate that what she said the other night was not very nice and that it hurt her feelings. "I was just joking, I thought it was funny" said Kate. "But not everyone knew you were joking Kate, and it hurt my feelings."

First off, I love hearing them "talk it out". Makes me laugh.
Second off, I think her answer was kind of hilarious, but I agree with Alex, of course.
Third off, my absolute favorite thing to do is listen to conversations that happen between the two of them in the car.
And last, I always wanted a twin. Now, after living with them, I'm so glad I don't have a twin.

2. Alex came home from summer camp yesterday and said "Mom, I have a crush." Me: "It's not that boy I saw with the flat bill hat on, is it?" Alex: "No, I was wearing that flat bill hat." FH: Eyeroll. Me: "Is FH going to have to have a talk with you??"

Lord help us with these boy crazy girls, 10 going on 16.

3. I am so bummed that I am not running the 5K tonight, but super excited that I get to see some of my blogger favorites. And happy that I can be some assistance as their designated pregnant driver to get them home safely. {Don't drink and drive kids, just find a pregnant friend.}

4. I have so many fun things planned to this summer, but for some reason I can't find time to do them all. This is a good problem to have though.

5. I'm going out to eat lunch with two of my favorite co-workers today and I get off at 3, that is the way to start a weekend!!!!

***gosh, this blog post did nothing but make me realize that my week has been lame and uneventful. oh well!***

Happy Friday Peeps! Hope everyone has a great weekend!!! Pin It Now!

Things We Aren't Going to Talk About

Things we aren't going to talk about today:

1. how much weight I gained over the last four weeks.

2. the fact that I just burnt my poptart in the toaster. I didn't even know  that was possible.

3. my poor husband that doesn't realize that he is going on a maternity diet with me. The maternity diet consists of not eating everything in sight.

4. my best friend lost her Aunt two nights ago and my heart is just breaking for her and her family. Death is all around awful but when it is completely unexpected and kids are involved, it takes on a whole new level.

5. there is a blogger meetup this friday night and I have nothing to wear. not to mention, y'all know bloggers take 400 pictures per second. I'm hoping I can volunteer to take the pictures and that will get me off the hook of actually being in them.

Things we can talk about today:

1. the ultrasound yesterday went perfect!!!! the little dude (or dudette) was waving at us and moving like crazy. It was such a shock because we weren't expecting to see that.


2. FH as a dad. it should come as a shock to NO ONE that he is going to be an amazing dad....he rocks the stepdad role like nobody's business. but just hearing him talk about this baby is amazing. I tried to tell him he didn't have to go to the next doctor's appointment with me since there would be no ultrasound and he looked at me like I was crazy.

3. this one is totally random. you've been warned. let's talk about how almost 85% of texts are followed by LOL. I mean, I do it too...but why do we do that? I'm not LOL'ing at every text you send, so why do I respond with it? I can't be sure.

4. I'm praying that a few more of my friends get knocked up soon. I won't name any names, but I'm looking at you.

5. We announced on all things social media yesterday that we are expecting. We got lots of love and it was fun to see who all was shocked. Is it because my kids will be 10 years apart?? See also, for everyone that was shocked on IG, I kinda wanted to comment back "So I guess you don't read my blog, huh?" lol <-----please see #3

Happy Hump Day!
Here's to hoping I don't fall asleep at my desk today. Pin It Now!

Tummy Tuesday

Okay guys, I think it's about that time.
I have always said that if there was a bun in my oven, I would do Tummy Tuesday each week to track progress.
Mainly because I have not one single picture of me pregnant the first time.

And just so you know, I'm sure these questions were a part of a linkup at some point, but just so I give credit where credit is due, I am stealing these questions from this blog. Make sure you go check her out as her story is much more interesting than mine.


How far along? 10 weeks but I look like I'm 20 weeks

I know what you are thinking:
Hey Lora, why on earth would you post that picture??
Where is your makeup?
Are you sure that's not just a food baby?

Sleep? Lots of it. But I'm counting down the days until I can't sleep on my back anymore....which will be HORRIBLE. Apparently I am safe to sleep on my back for 2 more weeks. After that, I don't know what I will do.

Maternity clothes? ....will be the death of me. No, but really. I'm busting out of my normal clothes but I don't look right in maternity clothes. I highly encourage anyone that is even slightly overweight and wanting to get pregnant to lose weight now! I would be so much less miserable if I had. Trying to focus on the miracle growing inside me instead of the fact that I am living in tshirts and jeans and not feeling cute. #firstworldproblems

Best moment this week? I'm hoping this will be today. I have my second ultrasound this afternoon. Please pray with me that there is no hidden second baby and that the baby is growing and healthy.

Miss anything? Sweet tea. And as dumb as it sounds, dieting. I miss working out hard to lose weight.

Movement? Too early for that.

Size of the baby? the size of a lime this week and growing fast.

Food cravings? None really....but I can tell you that I have lost interest in Mexican food, which was my main love before pregnant. It's weird. and FH is really sad about this. I'll still eat it, I just don't crave it ever other day like I was before.

Morning sickness? Not too much anymore.

Gender? Long time to go before we find that out.

Bed Rest? No, thank you.

Limitations? Nothing major yet.

Labor Signs? Obviously no.

Pregnancy Symptoms? Just so sleepy. All. The. Time.

Wedding Rings? Still on.

Looking forward to? Making sure there is only one baby.

That's all for now!
Happy Tuesday! Pin It Now!

Weekend Recap

Ummmm, hey new blog design!
Thanks Holly for my makeover.
If you are looking for a blog makeover, PLEASE contact Holly or her other half Hubby Jack. They are pretty great....and I'll be hanging out with them this weekend. Heeeeyyyyyyyy.


I haven't done a weekend recap in FOR-EV-ER.
And we had one of the best weekends ever so now is a good time.

Friday night, the girls got their trophies for softball.
I'm so sad it's over!
This was our first year in kid pitch and we loved it....always sad to see it go.

I can't wait until they get older and don't despise pics so much.

After the softball field, the girls BEGGED me to drop them off at the skating rink.
I have always said I would never do this.
Mainly because when I was little there was NO WAY my mom would drop me off.....but they have gotten really strict there now.
No sneaking out and going to the pool hall like when I was young.
They won't even let you leave the building without a parent.
So, I did it.
And the girls LOVED it.
And I had about 2 hours of free time which was GREAT.
Win-win.
BUT it is up in the air whether or not they will be going back.
Mainly because of 3 reasons:

1. Kate asked if she could wear mascara next week.
2. Kate asked me how old I was when I got my belly button pierced.
3. Kate came direcly home and picked out her outfit for next Friday.

I'm sure Alex had the same thoughts.....so we'll just have to see about that. If it were up to FH, he would have them dropped off in turtlenecks and pants while he stands outside holding a shotgun.

Saturday.
Morning time involved sleeping in and a breakfast buffet.
Need I say more??
Then Kate wanted a friend to come over to play.
I figured this was a great idea since it was raining and I didn't want to hear "I'm bored" 9,863 times that day.
Plus FH and I were cleaning house so they needed a distraction.
Please note I said "come over and play" not come over and spend the night.
And then we went to pick the girl up and her mom said "Okay so I'll call you around noon tomorrow, is that okay?"
Ummm, what?
Too bad I'm too nice so I didn't say anything.
Oh and then around 4, the girl informed us she never ate lunch.
{We picked her up at 1......}
Alex tried to find a friend to spend the night with her (3 is a crowd!!)
but everyone was busy or not answering the phone,
so she proceeded to pout all night.

All-in-all it was a fun time though....and it made me realize I am SO glad that I don't have triplets. Three pre-teen girls are LOUD.

Sunday.
We couldn't go to church because the little girl didn't pack church clothes.
After we dropped her back at home, we were going to take the girls to the movies.
And they both acted like we were making them go to school on a Saturday. I have no idea why...but they weren't interested.
Which really bummed me out because I wanted to go see Hangover 3 while they were watching their movie.
So instead of spending $40 on a movie to torture them with, we decided to go to the fair.

A tiny traveling fair.
You should know that I am scared to death of these tiny fairs.
I blame this on my Mother.
But seriously, the huge rides are on wheels.
How safe is that?!

We decided to risk it though.
And I told FH that if any of the rides collapsed while K&A were on them then he was to blame.
He is use to me blaming things on him though so that was fine.

We ended up buying them wristbands and let me just say this was $30 well spent. Especially when we were about the first ones there so there was NO line waiting at all.
Unlimited rides with no waiting...what more could a kid want?!

The girls rode every big kid ride several times.
I was shocked at how brave they were.
I was almost in tears when they went up in this huge ring thing that went upside down. Mainly because I could tell Alex was scared to death. And they were the ONLY ones on the ride.
And neither of them screamed. AT ALL.
But even from the ground we could see their knuckles turning white from holding on so tight.
And then they got off, ran up to us and said:
"We are so skinny that we thought we were going to fall out!"
Mark that down as something you will never hear me say.
Their legs were tiny compared to the buckle thing.
And then they said "Let's do it again!"


FH photo bomb.





And while they were running all over the place riding the rides,
FH and I thought we would do what normal people do at the fair:
EAT.
Unfortunately the HUGE difference between a tiny traveling fair and a "real" fair: the food.

This pregnant girl got an ice cream cone and threw it in the trash.
If you can believe that.
I didn't even know you could mess up soft serve ice cream, but they managed it.
After that, we were scared to try anything.
Not to mention, it was EXTREMELY difficult to order because the workers didn't speak English.
And when I say they didn't speak it, I am not exaggerating.

The rides made it totally worth it though.
And the wristbands.
I knew it was a good time when they came up to me and said "We're tired." and then when we got in the car and Kate requested we turn the music down for quiet time.
Whoa, what?!


After a small recovery nap and some quiet time in front of the TV,
we were back up and going again!

The girls went to Vacation Bible School.
To a church that we have never been to before.
And they knew absolutely no one.
Walked right on in without a problem.
I'm always impressed by their boldness.

This means FH and I had two and a half hours of free time.

I swear to you I am almost finished with the longest post of all time.

So, we went to eat Mexican.
And then ran in the grocery store.
I told FH we only had 30 minutes until we had to pick up the girls so we had to double team that grocery store....and we did.
I had the list and I sent FH around the store.
And we finished in 10 minutes.
Got to the church.
Waited about 15 minutes.
Wondered where the heck all the other parents were.
And then I was all like "Miiiiiichaellllllll, it's over at 8:30, not 8"
Pregnancy brain.

What a fun weekend.
I love fun-packed weekends exactly like this and can't wait for more.

Happy Monday Y'all.
Is it just me or is anyone else in shock that it's already June?!

PS
FH purchased our first baby item on Saturday.
How could we possibly pass this up??
