NO WAY!!

Well, well, WELL.... Daddy brought home not one but TWO kittens today for the princess. He did ask me prior (of course), and in a weak moment, I approved. Poor things were dropped off on the side of the road at his office. What in the world am I thinking??! First of all, he leaves tomorrow for NYC for a 3 day business trip --- which I can't make because I'm almost 38 wks prego! Boooo for missing this trip!!:( And second of all, let's reiterate - I'm 38 wks prego!! Luckily, his parents came over tonight and took these kittens until Jonathan can get home to take care of them. Whew!! And did I mention I don't even like cats???! At all!! Honestly, I'm not much of a "pet" person. These cats WILL be outside once they get a bit older. An inside puppy might possibly be in our future but no time soon. NO time. 

Needless to say, Cecilia was MORE than thrilled with Daddy's surprise!! We are working on naming the new additions. My judgment and baby brain must certainly be fragile and fuzzy right now to allow this!! Thank goodness we have an empty sun room to house these mangy rascals for a little while! I'm ready to get these to the vet for a full exam asap! 

Ohhh the things we do for our kids!;)

Home Sweet (Second) Home!!

It is nice to go home every once in a while!! Cecilia and I have taken little 2-3 day retreats down to the Coast to stay with my Mom and Stepdad over the past couples of months, so I can get some good rest in before Baby Les arrives... and boy, is it FUN!! My Stepdad cooks every night, my Mom wakes up with Cecilia and is with her until she goes down (swimming, dancing, playing on the keyboard, strolls, coloring and much more!!), I get breakfast IN bed, etc!! They are the BEST, and I just had to document for my blog book.;) I get way too spoiled when I come in town. It is hard to leave!! C makes it especially hard because I have to pry her kicking and screaming into the car seat. Maybe I should just leave her here until the baby arrives.;)

Confession - I started this post on Sunday and am now back to Hattiesburg - solo!;) Mommy decided to leave Cecilia with Mama Jo until the end of the week. THANKS, MOM!

A funny pic taken during her stay...:) While her hair is growing (finally), she is still channeling the likes of "Joe Dirt." Poor thing.;)
