I wouldn’t exactly call her Sally Sunshine at the moment.

After 4.5 hours of a little drug called Pitocin, we have very little to show for it.  In fact, so little that we’ve been discharged and sent home with instructions to watch for nature to take her course.
I’m not familiar with nature — we’ve never met — but I’m going to track down her number [...]

Twin bed.

It’s getting close to midnight here and the house is quiet.  We’re both in bed, but you better believe we’re not asleep.
She’s on one of her independent streaks tonight, sternly informing me earlier that she will be driving herself to the hospital tomorrow morning and that I may sleep in and join her whenever because, [...]

It’s what you’ve been waiting for…

I had a lot of plans for tonight involving dinner with friends, meeting with my accountability group and maybe even catching up on the 127 emails currently residing in my inbox.
But one little doctor’s appointment complete with exam and an unexpected sonogram this morning changed all that within a matter of moments.
Instead I’ll be making [...]

(Not So) Little Black Dress

A few weeks ago, I got a call from the newly engaged Katie (my former roommate for you newbies) asking me to be a bridesmaid in her wedding. I said yes rather quickly because I know better than to miss an opportunity to dress up and walk down a church aisle with (hopefully) single [...]

Also: I ate food off an actual stick found on the ground for the first (and last) time in my life.

Ryan and Allie invited Roomie and I over for a little smores action last night. Now, as you may remember, I just recently tried smores for the first time in my life. Even though I didn’t like them the first time around and I am not exactly open to the idea of eating [...]

Mittens.

Near the end of our day at Dollywood, I decided that MacKenzie and I needed a trip on the train that runs through the mountains beside the theme park to calm my little miss down. As we waited to board, I called Roomie with one (okay, two) simple questions:
“Hey, Roomie?” Except I don’t really [...]

I promise I’ll quit talking about Dollywood soon.

Well, as you hopefully saw on Friday night’s post, I LOVED HSM3!
Look how cool I am with the abbreviation! It’s like I’m one OF them!
For me, the best part of the movie going experience was the couple sitting directly in front of us. They were in their mid to late twenties and obviously [...]

I’ll make this quick.

I. Love. High. School. Musical.
Seriously. Why has no one ever forced me to watch this before?

I have noticed that Troy is rather cute.

In just a few hours, I’m picking up a particular wee child that calls me Mama Llama (if you’re fairly new to the blog, MacKenzie is a little girl I know who is being raised solely by her father so I frequently get her for mini-visits) and taking her for 24 hours of fun courtesy [...]

Fetus Friday — Tom Cruise, you may skip leaving a comment on today’s post.

I’ve waited all week to tell you about The Due Date Fiasco of ‘08 as I like to call it. Are you ready, ’cause I am about to BLOW YOUR MIND: Roomie has had no less than five different due dates.
In case you’re keeping track at home, those dates would be Oct. 1, Oct. [...]
