Everyone is pregnant! A year ago I wouldn't have thought much about this, but I am really excited for everyone and find myself thinking...hmmm? That could really be fun. I love love love surprises so I would surely NOT find out the sex ahead of time. Nine months of suspense is right up my alley! What a project to document too. I have so many good ideas for pictures/blog posts. So many exciting things to think of: What names would I choose? How would I decorate the nursery? How long would I be able to keep up CrossFit while pregnant? I really do love change. That would be about the biggest life change I could do, right? Timing is everything. [Note to self: get a job and insurance...oh! and a place to live.]
I know this is total crazy talk coming from me, but I can hardly avoid these thoughts since my Brother Bill and his wife Barbie are expecting. I have to say, I am inspired.
On Sunday, Barbie's mom threw a shower for them. Baby showers are better than 4 Christmas' put together. Oh the presents!
I finished the baby blanket I started while in Costa Rica and I think Baby Arnold is going to love it! It was the first time using a zig zag stitch, which turned out so cool yet, so un-perfect (just like aunt Cindy).Here we are at the shower from left: Barbie, Bill, Jenny, me and my mommyOn Sunday, Barbie's mom threw a shower for them.

Whoa, Nellie! If you're not sure, wait for the baby talk to run its course and gradually transform into "Why do I always have to change the baby's diaper in the middle of the night?" "Well, honey, I have to get up early in the morning for work and..." "Oh, so what I do isn't work?" "Now dear, that's not what I meant. I simply wanted to say..." "Well I'm simply saying you can share some of the responsibility, you work-shirking ne'er-do-well. It's your kid too, you know." "Now, you know as well as I do the tests haven't come back to confirm that yet, dear." etc. etc.
ReplyDeleteMaybe try a horse first.
Ha! I know exactly what you mean...babies are being born EVERYWHERE!!! And I too am starting to think...hmmmm. Could I do this? Your zigzab blanket looks great and I'm sure the baby will love it. The one I did is for one of my best friend's baby that's due in August. Hopefully it will be done by then!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you found me.
