Making Little Things Count: {How to Wrap it UP all in one}

Sooooo......as some of my loves have pointed out, I need to UPDATE this lonely little blog, it's sad and totally needs some TLC. So here goes it, my spillage of words, pictures, thoughts, rants, anything and everything that is going to come to my mind on how to update you on this whirlwind I have been living for pretty much the last year or so. I will warn you I may leave things out only due the lacking of quick memoranda of things. As some of you may love or will cringe...but grammar will NOT be followed correctly here, there will be spellcheck done (maybe), and this will ensue of the longest run-on sentences at times!! I am giving you my deepest apologies now....hold it close, it so totally means everything ha ha!!!

So do I start waaaaay back? Or do I go backwards? A part of me wants to start backwards just so you know...it appears to scroll chronologically since I am so OCD, but that the same time that pesky ADD kicks in and I get all confused... soooooo let's just go from the begining....Did you get all that??? Get it? Got it? Good.....

So after a year of trying to have another baby we finally got it right.... we finally were going to be parents AGAIN! I never felt more like a ton of bricks were lifted off my head...errr shoulders.

And here is this little miracle we were trying for!!

Something about a second one that is just so different from the first....I was so nervous b/c it just took so long to get to this point and some tests and all. But the day was finally here!!

I will tell you I was NEVER sick like this with Aydan, I was so glowy with him, I felt great, but WOW this was just NOT the same what so ever!! I secretly wanted a girl but wasn't going to be sad if it wasn't. At first I did not want to know at all....but Mike is so smart in his persuassion that he convinced me to find out by reminding me I am going to want to decorate and shop in the worst way!! Damn!!! Damn him for being so right...yes there you have it I was persuaded by shopping folks, I am most indeed a woman in those aspect!!

So we found out in September 2010 that we were having ( I know I know you all now but its like I am saying it for the first time again ha ha):

A GIRL!!!!!!!!

Wow!!! I cried happy tears and my heart skipped a beat....Mike's heart skipped a beat but I am sure not for the same reason ha ha!! His face went white!! Oh boy his biggest fear.... I am pretty sure he was just in-visioning "How and where do I get a gun?"

I won't lie, having a girl always scared me, but this time, it melted my heart!! I thought of all the girly things we could do together that I never got to do as a kid!! I thought about how she would have an awesome big brother to be there for her that I never had!! As a parent I find myself always always thinking well I never had this.....so I can't wait to give them what I never had, not the other way around. But they will not be spoiled by any means and they will learn to work for things just as Mike and I had. Values are very important!!

And so it began, the decorating, the shopping, the planning and preparation!! I won't lie the first time I ever went to shop for girl clothes I was soooo intimidate by how much I knew I would end up walking out of there with that I turned right around and buried myself into the boys sections....it was a sense of familiarity! There is just sooooo much more when it comes to girls clothes... bows, tights, skirts diaper covers, dresses, shoes, sweaters, barrettes, and on and on and on. I think I was afraid I would just buy it all!!

So here are some shots of big ole me!!! I got abnomally huge... towards the end it became painful to carry her.....and even drive!!
