Small Pleasures

My new-to-me ipad.  Makes looking up symptoms so much easier on the eyes.
Not sure why I find this so amusing.  Possibly the carrot appendages.
My increased couch time equals increased Alice play time.  I'm a captive audience to Lego castles and zoos.
The Safeway delivery guy.  He brings it right to the counter and then all I have to do is beg someone to put it away.
Alice and Aunt Camille wearing sparkly shirts from the Target kids department.  Just because Camille is married doesn't mean she has to grow up.

Favorite beverage:  Juice cut with club soda.  Not too sweet, helps settle my  stomach.  I would like to add something a little harder but I'm resisting.  Plus, I hear there's this thing called Fetal Alcohol Syndrome.
My contribution to the upcoming Thanksgiving dinner.  Ice cream turkey from Baskin  Robbins.  Freaky enough to please me.
Carl's tree measuring device.  A level, a straw, an angle thingie and a tape measure.  He invented it.  We're going to be millionaires.
Henry the Sea Slug and Charlotte and Fiona, the eels, in my mom's latest production, The Little Mermaid.  It's a costume extravaganza.
Little Mermaids dressed up to see The Little Mermaid.  Alice is sporting a Merida wig.  Close but no cigar.
Turns out Merida from Brave wore a curly mullet more suited to Garth from Wayne's World.
Baby boys named Teddy dressed in little girl pajamas.
Baby ducks.
Baby humans, of which I know the gender.  I'll tell Thursday.  Sometimes at night I google images of newborn twins so I can keep the faith.  I'm only 15 weeks and I feel like nine months.  Of course, I won't go that long, but still.  If this is what 15 weeks feels like, what does eight months feel like?  I don't even want to know.  Last night I looked up medically induced coma to see if it was an option for me. It isn't.

Please tell me you're not really getting that ice cream turkey. If you are, I forgive you, just because that pumpkin picture is so funny.

Hopefully you'll hit that middle part of pregnancy where it's not so bad? Then deliver early? You're almost home free! (Denial. It works.)

You aren't going to believe me...but you look great and that is a fabulous outfit.

I am praying hard that they won't be preemies. I'm sorry to bring that up, but I am praying mightily that you go to 36 weeks. (Should I pray that you don't go a day over 36 weeks, for your sake ☺)

I am excited for the Thanksgiving Day baby reveal!!

Teddy looks so dang cute in those PJs. I lurk on his mommy's blog and he is delicious.

Uh, Charlotte and Fiona look so grown up. Tell them to quit qrowing.

...and speaking of looking grown up...*sniff* Alice is looking soooo grown up. I will always think of her in the picture where she is folding her arms to pray...and also when she was uspet that someone ate all of the Freakin' cini minis.
