One of those days....

...so as I sit here and think about everything I have on my plate, it is hard for me to think about work. I will go ahead and forewarn you that this is my avenue to vent today so if you don't want to hear please quit reading.

  • It's Tuesday which means our Tuesday morning meeting was today. Wasn't bad but the meetings are NEVER good.
  • I had an orthodontist appointment today. (Will add to that in a minute)
  • Right before my appointment I get a call from one of my RBI's (which in laments term is one of the kids that was DEFINITELY coming to school) decided she wanted to go to school somewhere else! REALLY after I have fought for you to get an $8,000 scholarship?!?!? REALLY?!?!?
  • Then I get into my appointment and might I add my orthodontist is so very nice. i am very happy with him. But I wasn't expecting him to tell me I had really 2 options of fixing my teeth. 1. JAW SURGERY....and not even lower jaw surgery, which they say is easier but really IS ANY SURGERY EASY?!? But it's UPPER MAXILLA SURGERY WHICH IS WORSE! Then he say that my teeth really aren't that bad....but if I need jaw surgery something is BAD! Option 2. HAVE 4 TEETH EXTRACTED!! Does that not sound awful to anyone else? I feel like my mouth will be full of gaps then and space....I am so worried about this. I know I am very vain and that my Dr. knows what he is doing but I won't lie I am very nervous about all of this. I am worried about money, pain, and least of all looks.
  • I am just very stressed and worried. I know I shouldn't worry I am just ready to be to "THAT POINT" in my life....and No I am not really sure what "THAT POINT" is. I am just worried. Period.

It's a GIRL!!!!

Yep you guessed it! LOUISE IS HAVING A BABY GIRL!!! AND WE COULD NOT BE ANY MORE EXCITED!!
We went on Thursday with Louise and Dustin to find out if we were going to be having a little niece or nephew! Me, Laurie, Michelle, and Morgan were beyond ELATED about being able to see the baby on the screen and watch the baby move. After Louise and Dustin found out that brought us in and let us go through the whole process again to see what it is! AND I WAS RIGHT....IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE BABY GIRL!! I cannot tell anyone the amazing feeling I got when I saw her little cha! (I just love that I know it's a HER NOW!!)
So after we got the news, it was time for Louise's regular appointment and so that meant me, Laurie, Michelle, and Morgan had to occupy ourselves til they got done and we could go eat! We decided we would go look for gender specific stuff since we were throwing her a "sex party, gender specific party" :) on Friday at lunch! Michelle wrote all about that with pictures so click here if you would like to read about our party :) We went to children's place and got Ellie her first dress.
Needless to say that this precious baby girl has 2 Aunts that are so ready to meet her, a plethora of Great Aunts, Uncle's, and Grandparents, and GREAT grandparents that are ready to meet her!!

Ellie we are so excited about you and your arrival!! You enjoy your bonding time with mommy when you get out because when you get here there will be endless lines wanting to hold you and love you. You are already loved more than you can imagine! I love you little Lizzie Lou and I pray for you and your mommy daily! :)

My playdate with Morgan and Nate :)

So yesterday Nate and I got to watch Morgan while Michelle was working and Justin was doing school work! I was so excited! I hadn't seen her in a couple of days so I needed my Mo fix! :) I went with Michelle to pick her up, went to my house to pick up her Easter basket, or as I would like to call it her "14th Month Birthday Basket", then to drop off Michelle back at work. She wasn't really sure about leaving mommy at first but I turned on some music and we started dancing and all was good in the world of Mo again! :) 1st thing we did was go get some McDonald's. WE picked up dinner and headed to Nate's so we could "help" him wash the cars! Needless to say me and Morgan ate and watched Nate wash the cars! It was fun! Louise and Dirt stopped by on their way home to see her too! The photos below were captured throughout the night....I will narrate where needed :)

She loves helping drive Nate's truck!







Next step was to help wash it! She wasn't a big fan at first but she warmed up to it. But she kept getting distracted by Charlie, Taylor's dog. (Who is quite a bit bigger than Sadie and Splatt so she REALLY wasn't sure about him :))


She was fascinated with the suds in the water....I think she thought they were pretty.

Next we took a field trip to see Laurie and take her some food while she was in class. Morgan liked being able to get out and she knew who was supposed to be in that building...DADDY!



So to entertain Laurie and Morgan played chase around the columns :)


She liked playing with Laurie. Burned some energy.


Riding on Laurie's shoulders are always fun!

Michelle called called back as soon as we were heading over there so we need to pacify little Mo a little longer so we let her drive us around campus! She loved it!!

She was so proud of herself!

That is the little cup I brought her back from Disney World! She loved it! The little part in the middle turns and she really likes the straw!
She was beginning to wear down....
But she was so happy to see mommy!! :)


Thanks for letting us watch her Michelle!! She is so much fun!! I just love her to pieces and so does Nate. :)
