Well it's Monday and so starts another week! Surprisingly I am thrilled. I'm in a wonderful mood today, besides feeling guilty about just eating some chocolate cake. I'm not worried.... the feeling will pass. My friend Rachel emailed me a picture of her wedding dress and it's BEAUTIFUL. I'm so very excited to share in her big day with her and her future husband! In fact the next few months will be spent preparing for my upcoming busy summer. Let's see, bachelorette party, 2 babyshowers, wedding, new baby nephew coming, beach wedding.......I think that about covers it, but granted all this will happen in a span of 3-4 months. So there will be plenty to do in the next few months!!!
IT'S A BOY!!! My sister is having a baby boy, they just found out today and I couldn't be more thrilled. Yes, it's true I was secretly hoping for a little girl that I could buy cute clothes for and tell her all the things that I wish someone would have told me. For example, Cinderella and Prince Charming did live happily ever after, but it wasn't without a lot of hard work and a few unhappy moments. BUT I am just a happy to have a nephew. It will be a new experience for our family since my parents had two girls! My mom is VERY excited, she told me the other day that she wanted it to be a boy! So let the baby buying begin!!!
So our little chubby monkey had his first play date on Saturday. We visited our friends Keli and Abram who recently married. They have a westie named Barkly who was very excited to play with Plato. It was funny to watch because Barkly is the first dog besides his sister Harli that Plato has been around! Then on Sunday he met Jake's boss's cat, Steve, who was also willing to play with him. He had a big weekend. Now if only he could get his own sister to play with him. Our vet, Dr. Winters, told us it could be up to 2 months before Harli wants anything to do with him. So we will keep waiting. Anways....I hope you all had wonderful weekends!! And of course here is a picture of Plato courtesy of our friend Keli.

When I found out I was pregnant I wanted a girl so bad, girls were all I knew. I won't say I was upset when we found out it was a boy, but my heart sank a little... however BOYS ROCK!! Boys love their momma's so much and their Aunt's for that matter... they like to cuddle and be held and loved on, when girls have attitude! And just think how much easier the "teenage" years will be with a boy! Tell your sis congrats from us, when is she due?
ReplyDeleteAll very good points. I will have to say I think I wanted it to be a girl because like you that's what I know best! But for their sake the teenage years will be much easier!! And girls are expensive!!! I look forward to this new experience and your encouragement helps me get even more excited! Her "due date" is June 11. I will make sure to tell them you guys said congrats!
