Have Mercy

Dear Baby Bean. Please choose more of your father's genes and stuff. You still have time. Thanks! Oh. and love you.

Something's in the Water

The Current Happenings

*The kitchen and I have almost mended our relationship. I cheated on it for a few weeks, especially after the noodle incident. Blegh.

*Picnic in the park. Amazing food and too many blindingly white Oregonians turning pink.

*We kinda turned a little pink too.

*We have also eaten 3 watermelons in the past 6 days.

*Speaking of fruit, Baby Bean is the size of a peach today!

*Speaking of babies...My best friend is pregnant with her own little bean!

*I'm pretty sure when we were 4, as we tossed our Cabbage Patch dolls on the trampoline, we made a pact to have babies at the same time.

*Now, Baby Bean has its own best friend already...or future wife or husband...whatever.

A Sweet Life

{holy grail of cupcakes}

My plans this afternoon? Kind of a big deal.

*Think about doing laundry. Or Daniel might have to start wearing my underwear.

*Admit that I need to/have to/must do 67 loads of laundry today. Or hire a housekeeper for the next 6 months.

*Convince the stud hubs that we must become millionaires so we can hire a housekeeper for the next 6 or 6000 months.

*Bake my favorite cupcakes while I ponder the laundry situation.

*Wonder if I can pay someone in cupcakes to do my laundry.

*Eat two while sitting outside in the warm sunshine.

*Imagine life if Daniel, did in fact, have to wear my underwear. Awkward.

*Forget about laundry.

*Eat another cupcake.

Whim Wham Weekend #13

Friday Highlights

*Received the most amazing phone call ever. Still beaming about it.

*Girl's day with my cousin Savannah, (age 10). I used to change her diapers. Stop growing up!

*Red Robin, shopping, and pedicures, oh my!

*Daniel and I watched, "The Town." He said he really enjoyed it. I was asleep and snoring by the middle of it. As Ben Affleck said his last poignant line, I shouted "Whatever!" and woke up. I think I was having a dream within a dream.

Saturday Highlights

*Hey, let's go to Starbucks! We'll get bagels and coffee. Life is perfect!

*Four Starbucks later. It was bagel ghost-town. Like Jesus himself had returned to Portland and taken all of the bagels with him. I still love you Jesus.

*We settle for Subway instead. Don't even get me started on the raisin sandwich I somehow ordered.

*Starbucks #4 did have bagels! BUT it was the Barnes&Noble one...so, my gift cards won't work there. We pay $1.50. It's a small price to pay after the ordeal that food has become for me in my every day life!

*Daniel's favorite thing I wear these days is any type of maxi-dress/skirt. He loves them so much that he insisted I buy a new one at H&M.

*Church at Solid Rock.

*VIP status/discounts at Departure. Our friends there are too good to us AND Baby Bean!

*Fancy Shirley Temples/Edamame/Indonesian Chicken/Shitake Rolls/Departure Wings/Macadamia Torte.

*Food baby and Real baby were happy.

Sunday Highlights

{I have daily love affairs with food. obvi}

*Roll out of bed and hop in the car for a much-needed grocery shopping excursion.


*The promise of Krispy Kreme doughnuts made me push through.

*Surprisingly, I am not 200 lbs. yet.

Lime is to Baby as Pregnant is to Bon Bon

Remember {this} post? Oh wait. Better yet, do you remember me? Well, this post will explain my on-again-off-again relationship I've been having with this ol' blog lately.

You see, it's kind of hard to blog consistently when you are constantly in the bathroom going pee. Or taking a nap, or 3 every day.
Time flies by when you're hitting up McDonalds 4 times in one week after getting sick while cooking (spaghetti will never be the same again) for the stud hubs. Don't even get me started on my new workout routine that involves taking a shower. Yes. Washing my hair is equivalent to P90X now.

Thankfully, the McChicken/french fries/hot fudge sundae phase has passed. Burp.
Now the real fun begins, cause...

Baby Bean I. will be here November 30th!

We got to see the little lime-sized bubba yesterday. Feet crossed, hands behind head...totally living the life in womb paradise.

All of our hearts went pitter-patter.

Actually, Baby Bean's heart sounded like a motorboat.

Perfect.

Whim Wham Weekend #12

{hooray for moms}

Friday Highlights

*Huge steak dinner with my parents.

*Late night cleaning up our week of messy living. Tag team style.

*Late late night trip to the airport to pick up some of Daniel's family.

Saturday Highlights

*Starbucks/Brunch with the whole fam damily.

*Shopped 'til we dropped at the outlet mall. You just can't pass up skinny khakis for $9. Or a Jamba Juice. And a pretzel, apparently.

*Welcome Home party for Daniel's sister/brother-in-law...(they live in Kentucky).

*Two hot chocolates with scoops of vanilla ice cream at McMenamins. And tots. Always get the tots.

Sunday Highlights

*Church...rice krispy treats and coffee at church are always a plus.

*Chicken salad with honey mustard dressing. And french fries.

*More rice krispy treats and desserts, celebrating all the mamas in the family.

Wish I Was Here

Sunshine. Tropical. Bliss.

I wish I was back at {this} place.

Externally, I need some sun-kissing to go on with my skin. Internally, I need a Bahama Mama. Or a Pina Colada.

And a cheeseburger from the walk-up grill on the beach.

This could very well be what Heaven is like.

Minus the pool-side DJ pumping out the Ice Cube hits.

Word.

Eavesdropping

{via}

Human #1: "Yeah, I'm wearing 'Burberry Weekend' perfume."

Human #2: "What?! Bieber Weekend?"

Bieber Weekend Eau de parfum. The sales would go through the roof.

Just throwing that out there, Burberry.
