First of all, happy Mother's Day to all of the mommies I know, my mother, and my grandmother. Oh, and to myself as well ;) Second, I just want to say that I have the BEST husband in the world. Ever. He got me the best present for mother's day. It's a beautiful mother-daughter necklace. I hold this gift near and dear to my heart. My mother had one just like it for me (I think I still have it somewhere) and now I have one that represents the bond between her and I as well as my children and I, and my children and her. It is just really meaningful and important to me, big thumbs up to Jaime for it! I have the best husband.
Second, I wanted to say that Busy Ladybug Boutique is going to take a little longer than expected to open due to issues with my paypal account. That and personal factors- I'm on bedrest, and we're still trying to move our mess of junk from upstairs to downstairs.

6w3d. My little booger is getting big!
It is mind boggling how much N has grown! From being a couple thousand cells like her soon to be brother or sister to being this babbling toddler that is sitting next to me today!
N is saying so many new words, just today she learned the word "juice". And she says it clearly. She can say the following words:
Daddy, Juice, Baby, Stop, Stay, Sit, Hello, Elmo, Bye, Yes, No (she pronounces it "doe"), Book, Car, Ceci, Cindy, and some others. I think that's pretty good for 16 months, although she has a lot of work to do! She can't say "mama" yet!
Today she also demonstrated to me that she could get herself off of the couch easily. I was shocked! She has just started climbing, so once she was up there there was no coming down. I could put her there and she'd happily watch television and let me cook. Now I'm chasing her around!
Today I'm making meatloaf. It doesn't look so great, it's all mushy, but it smells amazing! N is eating potatoes for lunch. She had blueberries and a blueberry bagel for breakfast. So Dinner will be meatloaf. I wonder how it will turn out! It won't be finished until around 7 or 7:30, but that's fine because Jaime doesn't get off of work until 7:30 anyways. I still haven't tried out the spaghetti sauce I made a few days ago, but the little taste I had was amazing. It has no meat in it but is surprisingly chunky! Maybe I'll have it for lunch tomorrow. I have to find a quick crock pot recipe that uses 1lb of ground beef for tomorrow, it's defrosted and I don't want it to go bad.

Happy 16 months!
Happy 16 months to N, and happy 6 weeks to baby.
Ruby predicted it to be a girl, but the chinese gender predictor predicts a boy.
We will see :)
Jaime gets off work at 3 today! :) We're going to work on moving.

5w6d- Hot Chili in my Chilly House
It is unbelievably cold down here. It is 40 some degrees outside, it is in the 60s down here, which is not comfy weather. I'm used to having the heat cranked up to 73, at least. They won't even turn it on upstairs. During the past two 80 degree days I had left the windows open and it warmed up. It's like an ice box down here. Jaime told me that he'd bring the space heaters down from the garage.. that's great but I have to worry about the fire hazard and burn issue. We're not sleeping down here yet, and when we do, we won't leave them on.
I'm making chili- we'll see how that goes. It doesn't look quite chili-ish... it looks very tomato-y. I added a can of tomato sauce because it looked like ground beef, beans, and tomatoes. So we'll see. Either way, I'm going to eat it. Hot chili in a chilly basement sounds good to me!
Being on bed rest sucks, especially when no one else in the house but my husband knows that I'm pregnant. It's like they expect me to do whatever, and if they see me laying on the couch with my feet up, I look like a bum. Why do I even care what they think? And in case you're wondering how they'll see me laying on the couch like a bum, it's because our windows are ass naked. Seriously I need blinds, black out curtains, ANYTHING. I'm contemplating cutting up pillowcases and hanging them in the windows. Too bad I don't have pillowcases to spare!
Right now N is playing with velcro on the floor, it's stuck to the carpet, and she's pretty frustrated. She looks so adorable though, with her rainbow striped pants and rainbow shirt that says "I <3 mom". I love this kid. Can't believe she'll be 16 months tomorrow.
