It's a BOY!!! not for me of course!


Introducing my nephew. 
Due to join us on or near April 11th 2013.  Today was a lot of fun - my BFF Rickie, had her ultrasound this afternoon and found out she is having a boy.  I will admit, I am a little bummed she has crushed my 100% dream accuracy because she was supposed to be having girl :) but I am still beside myself with excitement and I couldn't love him more.
Rickie is not just any friend...she is my best friend...my other half.  Being that I haven't been successful in carrying a baby, going through it with her has been the next best thing.  She has been so great about letting me share everything right along with her.  Talking about what she learned in her books, letting me be the first to know about all the cool stuff (like the sex of the baby!), listens to my name suggestions regardless of how much she hates them, and just letting me be excited !!   It makes me smile, it warms my heart, and it makes me cry (tears of joy of course) because I could never imagine my life without her and I love her so much for sharing all of this with me. 

So now the fun begins...shopping, the nursery, names...all the joys of baby planning *** :) I get to help with all the fun stuff and I don't have to be the one to wake up in the middle of the night :)  WOW!!! I love being an aunt!!

Notice anything different?

A little accessory for her Aunt Rickie's wedding.  She kept telling us she wanted long hair like us for the wedding but we just never grew it out.  So voila! instant long hair! I do plan to make it look a lot nicer for the wedding.  Literally she walked in from playing in the sprinkler and I shoved it on her head.  Once her real hair is curled it will blend and look more uniform. I am proud at how well I matched the color, I was worried because I ordered it off line.  

Soon to be teenager!

We just celebrated our 11th Gotcha Day, this kid amazes me everyday.  She is doing fabulous in the 6th grade.  She currently has all As and 1 B.  She loves school and still loves to learn.  She struggles a bit with making friends, but she handles herself well, meshes great with the staff and the teachers and doesn't take any crap or bullying from anyone.  LOL!  She has had her fair share of issues, and has had to write out 50 Ways to be Respectful a handful of times and has been in the "warrior room" to work out conflicts more than once but she is loving, kinds, silly, strong and very self confident.
