I am still here!

I really am starting to feel like everytime I get on here to post I'm sitting here wishing I was keeping up with my blog more regularly. I have to remember life is life and I will get around to it...eventually.
Lots have happened since I last posted. We repainted our entire living room, bought a few more pieces for the house, planted a few trees, gone to a bunch of baby showers and birthdays, and have barely had time to sit down and take a breather. Lots of life changes are upcoming and I'm trying to mentally prepare myself for them all.

Yesterday I went to my good friend Nicole's baby shower. It was adorable- tons of pink everywhere, itchy pink boas, and cakes and cookies galore. Little baby Elliott is going to be such a well dressed baby! I ended up picking her up a cute cupcake Life is Good blanket, a pink hair bow and pink socks from Janie and Jack, a tube of desitin, safety plugs for outlets, a boppy pillow cover, and a little bathing seat for bath time. Let me just say this week was my first venture into BABIES R US- Oh dear Lord I was overwhelmed! A tad bit excited to see all these baby things in one place, but most certainly overwhelmed. I must have walked around aimlessly for nearly 20mins before I felt I should start tackeling the registry. They do not make it easy let me tell you- half of everything was not where they said it would be on the registry, but thankfully I left with my few items.

Speaking of babies- EVERYONE is PREGGO! And let me tell you I hate the word preggo, sounds like the pasta sauce, but it is appropriate for the post. Lets see a list of my close girlfriends and acquaintances and those that are trying, pregnant or new moms:

Jessica- Baby Cole
Caroline- Trying
Nicole- Baby Elliott on her way
Yasmine- Baby Jaxon
Amy- Baby Braelyn on his way
Aimee- Baby Logan and trying again
Cheryl- Baby x on his or her way
Heather- not trying- one of the few

So as you can see a lot of my girls are there or on their way to baby land. I am really fortunate to have this great group so that when I become pregnant I will have a wealth of knowledge a phone call away. Now that being said I have some news....









No I'm not pregnant.






Well I am off to do the loads and loads of laundry I have waiting for me. Since Hubby is driving back from FL I plan to just putz around the house on this beautiful Sunday... maybe go for a walk. Oh and I should say I plan on losing some major poundage before I go to baby land because, well, my boobs can't get any bigger and my waist can't get any thicker and still put on the lbs for the baby. It just won't happen lol I won't let it lol So I will be joining my local gym tomorrow and I plan on picking up a scale today. If a depressing post comes after this one you will know I have faced the scale lol
