It's A...

n Umbilical cord! I had an apt the other day hoping to find out some special news, but we'll need to wait a little longer. Though there was no 5th appendage obvious to the eye, there  was something that was thought to be a loop of the umbilical cord. So, I have my 20 week in three weeks, so I'll just have to wait a little longer before I start sticking flowers and butterflies, or frogs and toadstools, on the walls of the nursery. Here's the 17 week picture of the little sweetie.

Happy Birthday Jacob!!


Happy Birthday Love!

Just want to let you know that you are wonderful. You work so hard at work AND school. We are so proud of you. You are handsome, funny, and are much adored by me and Gabriel. Thank you for being such an important part of our life.
And what did my hubby want for His B-day besides money for an Iphone? Maternity pants!

But, Mommy. You're Old...


Out of the mouths of babes. The things this clever little man comes up with make me laugh everyday. What a Joy.

We were at the grocery store and I can't lift Gabriel up now (due to the baby in my tummy), so he just has to walk unless there are those car carts. There was a car cart, but I would have had to lift him up into it...

So he then runs to one of the motorized sitting carts. I say that it's for old people that can't walk very well.
"But Mommy, you're old"

Another one was yesterday in the car. 
"Mommy, look! I decorated my face!"
I glance in the mirror and see that he has a fruit snack behind each ear, one stuck to his forehead, and one stuck to his nose. 

The other day we were talking about the meat in the spaghetti sauce and Gabriel knows what animals the different meats come from. I realized that he didn't know how we get the meat.
He's a bright kid, so I thought I'd give it a try.I explain it to how we get the meat, and he laughs really hard because he thinks I'm teasing him.
He thinks for a minute,
"Mom, do the pigs poop out the meat?"
