2. I'm always reminded on my birthday how thankful I am for my Mom and my family! She had me pretty young and had a ton of support around her to help me grow into who I am today. With so much
3. We've got what we're calling "baby camp" this weekend. Really not looking forward to it, but hoping they understand when I start asking them about VIP rooms and other perks. For the record, I will not watch any TMI (too. much. information.) videos and I'm not really feeling the practicing of my breathing either. For two people that have been around kids and babies all their lives, but that don't want to see the inside-out of labor & delivery, I'm really not sure why we're going...oh wait, the VIP list. That's why. Plus, who knows, maybe we'll make some new friends!
4. We have somewhat finished Little B's tree and it looks awesome! I'm so thrilled with how it turned out and can't wait for the finishing pieces to come in sometime next week. Tim enjoyed watching me paint all the leaves on the tree and then asking, "what if Little B doesn't even like trees?" Umm...that's just not an option. I don't know if you can tell by my picture, but there are some awesome shelves that are sort of hidden in the branches. They turned out awesome! Big thanks to my Aunt & Uncle for making a pregnant ladies wish come true! (I'll post better pictures of the nursery next week so you can all get the full effect.
5. Tim called this morning asking me if I knew of a liquor store around where he was because he needed to pick up a bottle of wine for a client. Excuse me? You're going to ask a girl who hasn't had a drink in almost 8 months (on her BIRTHDAY mind you) where the closest liquor store is. Did he do this to me on purpose? Needless to say, I told him to ask Siri...
6. In Texas (most of the time) and sometimes in CA too my birthday kicks off Spring Break. This was always awesome when I was a kid because I felt like I was getting a vacation for my birthday. I still like to pretend that life is this way, at least when my birthday falls on a weekend that is.
7. I'm beginning to really dislike my maternity clothes. I sometimes sit in the mornings and look at all the jeans I love that I can't wear right now. Thankfully though, I only have 9 weeks left in these clothes, or at least that's what the calendar tells me (we'll see what Little B has to say about timing, he or she is part Tim). In a perfect world I'll be able to jump right back into my loving wardrobe that's waiting for me, I know that's not the case really, but a girl can dream! Oh it's wonderful to day dream about!
8. The beach has been calling my name recently. It does that from time to time. I don't know when I'll get the chance to get there soon, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Of course, I'm not sure that this baby bump is going to be exposed...am I that girl? Either way, I was very excited to have a beachy dream last night. I didn't want to get out of bed...especially when I realized/remembered that the temperature had dropped and the cold front had arrived. Oh and did I mention that this girl that prides herself on still being somewhat naturally tan in the winter is pasty pale? I need some sunshine!
9. Here it is...the baby bump...a bad camera-phone picture, but regardless a little baby bump love on my birthday is a good thing! :) My sweet sister-in-law asked if I was going to do a maternity photo shoot. There are lots of people now that do these full on shoots of their belly's and the glory of pregnancy, but I think I'll just stick to the funny photos that Tim captures of me for now. It's much more me.
