She's Having A Baby...

My best friends are expecting!!! David and I are so excited. It came at just the right time. David and I have been struggling with the decision of calling it quits (having babies) or to add one more to our family. I really don't want to be pregnant again - since preeclamsia worsens each pregnancy - and didn't want to test our finances out on providing for 3 - but yet - there's still just something about it. Well - we get to add one to our family - via someone else! Now, we'll get our baby fix and not have to go through any of it (again)! So, congrats Michael and Mal - we are so excited!!

Today is Hadley Grace's birthday! One year ago today Mal, David, Mom, Dad, and Connie were sitting in the hospital with me waiting for her to make her presence. I was so nervous - I remember dropping  Braxton off with Uncle Mike and holding on for dear life. Knowing that I was going to have surgery and that anything could happen was so scary. It was also scary knowing that our family would never be the same. God knew exactly what we needed and gave us Hadley Grace. She is the gentlest, sweetest yet still sassy little girl that ever existed. She has the perfect amount of sugar and spice. We are truly blessed! We will be having a little shindig with the M&M's for both Hadley and David's birthday tomorrow night.

cooking...

up a plan. Yep. A big plan, indeed. If all goes well...things will get pretty interesting. Cross your fingers, make a wish, and say a prayer.

Stay tuned...

Beware of the Crockadonald

Bug's newest trick to get out of time out is to suddenly become afraid of the "crockadonald" that only appears in time out. It's quite absurd, actually. But it's so stinking cute that it normally gets him out of trouble! Hadley Grace is almost walking on her own. Right now she's content with grabbing on to Braxton's shirt and toddling behind him until she bites the dust.

Life is busy busy busy right now. Friday I'm headed to Buna to help Holly get ready for the big day. It'll be some much needed friend time - but I'm hoping I can get a lot of her wedding stuff knocked out of the way. She helped me make 500 bird seed bags for mine - I definitely owe her! It's hard to imagine that all of us our married now. I mean - I know that we're not old - so I guess it's more of the history that I stand in awe of.

When I come home it'll be spring break - I'm not sure when, where, or how but we're planning on going to Corpus to hang out with our BFF's. Then the 19th is the Brad Paisely concert. I'm super excited and stil can't really believe that David pulled off surprising me - but he did! And then - in 34 days - we set sail! Life is hectic right now - but a good kind of hectic.

It is finished....

Thank the sweet baby Jesus, it is finished! TAKS Tuesday is drawing to a close...I'm one tired puppy! I can't exactly explain what makes this day so incredibly long. The stress? The pressure radiating from the kids, coworkers, everyone?? I don't know why sitting in silence for four hours is so nerve wrecking - but it is. Like I said, thank the dear Lord it's over!

I'm currently watching American Idol...and I can't exactly say I'm loving it this season. So far...it's just kinda blah. I was shocked, however, to find that Bethenny Frankel had a new show. Woot woot!

Well - cheers! Here's to tomorrow!
