wee cousins

remember that one time, i'm due on april 14th, and my sweet sister steph is due on april 17th? yeah that's pretty close. i don't know what we will do if we birth these sweet cousins at the same time, because not only do we need to share the motherly love of patti, but we also share a doctor. that could get tricky. i would suggest just putting us in beds side by side to solve all running back and forth issues, but i'm 100% certain that the sweet husbands would vote strongly against that for obvious reasons. not a sight for brothers to see. regardless, these wee babes will be bff's and i can't even wait!

insert: greg just read this post and cringed "i don't want to be there when she's naked!!!!" haha i rest my case.

have you ever seen the charmin toilet paper commercials with the bears? the ones where the momma bear has to inspect the little bears' buns, come to find out that it is covered in itty bitty pieces of toilet paper. i just can't seem to come to terms with this concept. i've used a wide variety of toilet paper brands in my lifetime and i've truly never experienced such a thing. it blows my mind that the people of charmin assume that humans can relate. is that really a common issue? common enough that it can be used to sell the charmin brand? i like charmin toilet paper. it is soft. i just get flustered when i see those commercials. thats all.

spilling the beans

last month, we had greg's family over for dinner. after we ate we were all kicked back relaxing, when sweet husband suggested that we get a group shot. everyone gathered on the couch while he set up the camera. he peeked out from behind the lens and said "okay, everyone smile and say....

...Nikki's pregnant!!!"

their immediate response? "yeah right, funny joke"

I reassure them that greg isn't being ridiculous. "no really! i promise! i'm due in April!"

...and then it sinks in.

please take note of sweet landon's shock...

excitement all around.

ya hear that Em? you're gonna be a big sister!!!
