To Tell?

Tomorrow we have a doctors appointment. There is a possiblity we might find out what we are having. Since I am only 17 weeks it is not as definate as it could be.  To tell or not to tell??

Loves and hugs--that is the question.

Cruise

As a thirty something--taking a trip with your mom can be interesting.  I am glad we did it--It was her first time out of the country, on a cruise ship, and time alone with 'Puddin.'  Now that a month has past I wonder what she thinks about the trip. Maybe a follow up luncheon is necessary.

Loves and hugs--Where would you go with your mom?

Steel

Friday, we celebrated our 11-year anniversary! I follow the traditional gift structure and have since our first year of marriage.  This year is steel. Generally, I am super creative and pick awesome gifts--but--if you know CC you know he LOVES to work on cars, cars made of steel.  So instead of trying to be creative I just said, "Babe, steel is the 11 year gift, what would you like?" There was a list. I told him just to take care of it and know I followed tradition. I shouldn't have trusted him, he OVER spent.  But hey, it's tradition right?

The other steel gifts we purchased, a blender and a griddle, both stainless steel. Tradition still alive! Awesome. My gift was the best...an entire day...alone...at the spa! Heavenly!

Loves and hugs--What's your anniversary traditions?

Worldly Possessions

The less you own, the less that owns you.

Loves and Hugs--Go green!

Cheeks!

In the past three years, I have had many, many, many tests and medications to figure out why we couldn't have a baby. I was on fertility meds, had some very uncomfortable procedures, and just plain frustrated.  I wasn't at my ideal weight to get pregnant but it is what it is and who cares, CC still loves me.  The weight gain I have experienced has all landed in my CHEEKS. Yes, my face (not my buns) and they are huge! I look like I did the day my wisdom teeth were pulled---minus the bruises.  It's like I am smuggling a year's supply of nuts in these things--eat your heart out chipmunks--I have room for your nuts! 

Here I sit, feeling sorry for my chubby cheeks and I am ok with it.  My body can do whatever it needs to protect and grow my baby.  I will gladly give my body to be used however it needs to be to protect my young.  BUT--know this little Baby Grey, once you are out and finished with me--I will have my body back! 

Loves and hugs--Someday I will have my "Red Hot Piece of Ass" back!

Workday

Friday, I planned a retreat for a committee.  It was awesome, facials, laser tag, go carts, dinner, and a skit. I wish every workday included a facial! Heaven.

Loves and hugs--I assure you heaven includes spa treatments!

The Help

There was a preview for The Help at the movies this weekend.  I want to see this movie more than you know! Honestly, I am not sure I can wait until the summer. I desperately have the desire to be amazing...and I am not...but when I see things like this it gives me hope that there are people out there that are amazing!  I long to be like them!
