I know I'm pregnant when installment #2...

I know I'm pregnant when I find myself standing outside of my house nearing extreme frustration because no matter how many times I press the "unlock" button on my car keys the front door to my house will still not open.
I should also throw in #3 and say I had spaghetti O's for dinner with chocolate and biscuits for dessert. Nice.
Today I am thankful for...
1. enjoying the shade our new umbrella provides.
2. Ben's 35 minutes of sheer joy while spraying himself with the hose over and over again.
3. my new capri's and swim cover thing, for Hawaii. :)
4. Amanda's silly phone calls.
5. Leslie's birthday!!!
6. OH! the chocolate I made this morning for the biscuits I made yesterday. (It's Leslie's birthday, mom, doesn't that count???)
7. Ben still playing with his basketball hoop after three full days. Ya just never know with toys...
8. Ben not being quite as whinny today!!
9. sharing a smoothie with Ben this afternoon because it was 96 degrees outside... I should clarify and say that Ben shared the smoothie with me. Thanks Ben.
10. the safe return of Gma!! Can't wait to see her and Papa this weekend.

If it makes you feel any better, I've totally done the "try to open the front door with the car remote" thing!! And that's with out the assistance of pregnancy hormones:)

I'm pretty excited because I'm not crafty, at all, but when I saw this idea on my new favorite crafty blog I got all giddy because I thought, "I can do that!" and so I did. And since my kids ARE crafty, go figure, I had all the stuff to make them on hand - yippee! All I had to do was buy the goodies that make the wings, which only cost me a dollar (thank you Dollar Tree!). I put them in the kid's little Easter buckets. I hope they like them as much I do. :-)

In a Nut Shell...

Saturday afternoon, 2pm, got home from Costco and thought I might be going into labor. Troy woke up from his nap at 3:30, sensed what was going on and was not too happy about it at all. Thinking it was pretty early, but not want wanting to take any chances, we left for the hospital a bit before 4 o'clock Yep, too early. Walked the halls for an hour which produced more of these... Which felt like this... And at 8:42pm they led to this... We are so thrilled to add a precious baby girl to our family We love you Mia Joy! (7lbs 2oz, 18.5" long)

I know that people come from good places and the intentions behind their comments are never bad, and sometimes they're actually funny, but sometimes I just want to say, um, really? Is that the BEST thing you can think of to say? Here are some of my faves from last week... "I'm going to un-friend you on facebook because you do not look like you just had a baby a week ago." - sorry? "What's her name? ... Oh I know SO MANY Mia's. Like, SO many." - great. "Are you guys finished yet? Is there some literature out there I can get for you (to teach you about prevention)?" (This one is my favorite) - "I'm the oldest of three and I am SO glad my parent's didn't have a fourth." - um... okay. This is the one I hear from almost everyone, it's not necessarily a bad thing to say, I just get it A LOT, "Two boys and two girls? Oh, the perfect family." Does that mean before Mia we had an imperfect family? I also hear endle
