where DID it go?!?!

i was just minding my own business...eating a delish potato and egg breakfast taco, when i reached for it...needing another bite, and it was GONE!!!! how can i finish food and not even know it? i was reading blogs and stuff....then no taco! as usual, i should savor my food. i just want one more bite...please :)

i fondue

mama pal, Kiwe hosted a rocking fondue and bingo night last week. it was awesome...how could it not be with pots of melted yummy cheese and decadent chocolate?!?! i made a salad inspired by the salad i usually ate back in the days of the o'mama ladies nights at the Melting Pot. i must admit that it was fabulously tasty. it was an awesome night of fun chat, silliness and serious bingo playing. Kiwe won twice....there was talk of her rigging the bingo ball basket ;p

happy birthday, Leah Ann

last week we got together and celebrated dear Leah Ann's birthday. we had such a freakin BLAST! She's such a great sport that she sang karaoke (thanks to Jennifer, who brought her machine over) and wore a party hat (Mia saw the pic and was very delighted)! everyone ate drank and was merry. divided into teams, we battled it out with Catch Phrase and the losers (Courtney, Melissa, Andrea and Anja) were forced to karaoke! Anja was soooo into it...she was the cutest thing. then there were Courtney and Melissa with their rockin air guitars! the whole night, Leah Ann either had a huge smile on her face or was laughing hysterically. good times. happy birthday, my friend!

spa-ahhhhhhh

in a couple of weeks, a very dear friend, Sara will be participating in a fund raise/girls night out sorta thang for The Good Earth Day School. Her kiddos start attending next week, and she's already up to her elbows (literally) helping out. she'll be providing hand and foot massages as well as foot soaks and scrubs! she wanted to practice to make sure she could do it all and keep the line moving, so she oohhhhhh so sweetly invited her pregnant friends to be guinea pigs. yay! it ROCKS to be pregnant for so many reasons, but this is just gravy!

i joined other preggos....Heather, Andrea, Gale and two other mama's one very pregnant mama...due next week!....from the neighborhood, and Kristen from Manor. i'd met her at Sara's Memorial Day party, so it was super nice to see her again.

we ate, chatted, and were pampered. the water was just right...so was Sara's touch, but that's not surprising. she's super duper gifted in all stuff good and fun...just don't ask about house cleaning...we are indeed sistas when it comes to that!

thanks for a LOVELY evening Sara, and making us all feel so special and delicate on our lily pads :)

why i take prenatal vitamins

1. i'm pregnant

2. i had chili cheese fries for lunch

3. with a side of jalapeño poppers

cold feet

ok, so we got a temporal thermometer. daryl was trying it out and it's pretty accurate..his temp was right at 98.5. then he put it on the end of my nose...79 and my big toe....74 degrees. my hands, nose and feet always feel cold and now there's proof.

i LOVE how silly he is...he's always making me laugh.

today

today
i am sad
and i don't know why

actually
i realized
if i didn't miscarry in the spring
i'd have a newborn right now

that's just sad
i didn't expect it to hit me at all, much less hard
see what i know

i'm glad my mom is here to play with Mia
i just want to curl up in bed on this grey grey day
