boys make me blue

I've been asked by many if I'm disappointed that I'm having another boy and the answer is, sorta. I'm not worried one little bit about the sweet little thing in my gut that is already giving me lower back pain. the thing I'm bummed about is no decorating a girls room or buying dolls or sewing dresses. and gosh darn it, i'm SICK of baby blue. so while I don't need to buy anything {and man! i really don't!} here are some things I would like to get....

combi hot rod bouncer

coZibug swaddler

and as soon as we de-crib the bug, i can start on little J's room. I'm excited to show what I come up with.
so you know what would make me smile? if you want to throw me a hypothetical baby shower, post a link of some really cool baby boy product, that is completely unnecessary, in my comments. then I can shop new and wonderful things as if this boy were my first!

and the baby is....

a boy. I would put a picture on, but the ultrasound tech didn't think it important to give me one of his face. {I have two of his boy parts though}

so get ready world, it's raining men. and I hope you like 'em tall, dark and handsome.

p.s. I may be making my blog private in the next little while. I can't get the koreans off my back. at least I think they're korean.

I have some 'splaining to do

wow that's a big picture! yes. I am.
You won't be seeing me for a few months.
Don't come visit me. I might puke on you.

I'm not pregnant.

But if I was, I would buy this swimsuit.
I like this one too.
It's a good thing I'm not pregnant. Because my long torso doesn't fit into one-piece swimsuits. and then I would be stuck with two really cute swimsuits that give me a wedgy.

my cute little bro is graduating from high school and I snapped a few quick pics of him tonight for his announcements. If you think this one is supa cool, wait till you see the next...

ta da!

my also cute sister-in-law Julie introduced me to the world of picnik. my my joel. you are looking shnazzy!
(ok. now that I've seen this on blog, you should know it looks way cooler in the photo programs.)

nobody likes their peanut butter spread too thin.

and I am that peanut butter. I've just been trying to do too much lately and, as always, my body has slammed on the brakes. Yes- I'm sick.
So something's gotta give. and sadly? it's this:

Oh I was so thrilled to be picked. It would have been my first show/market/boutique/whatever you want to call it. But I come back from the Bahamas the night before. And all this extra curricular sewing has left no time to make product. I guess I could just sell candy...
So needless to say, big frowny face. but what's this?

Ok. their banner is nowhere near as cute. but they contacted me to be one of their vendors and I have a notion to say "Yes! Very much Yes!" It would be the second Saturday of every month until October. I am equally excited.
You see? Sometimes when fate closes a door... it opens a mountain aire market.

late mother's day card

If you forgot your mom on mom's day, perhaps you can make it up to her with this card. The message says, "Thanks for your support." but I think it would be equally amusing with the message, "My cup runneth over."

See card here.
