Serious Addiction....

This could be bad, even more-so for a gestating woman. Espressos. Lots of them. Our trip to Cali did me in with Brents daily Starbucks ritual, and since we have been back it is all I think about. When and where will I get my next fix...So for lovely Mothers Day what does my hubby do? Enable. He bought an espresso machine. My Dr allows 1 caffeinated beverage a day, so this is hard, but also good...Gives me a limit!

I feel as though I am going crazy. I walk around my house, and I hate everything. The paint, pillows, rugs, garage (if you have seen my dump, oh I mean garage, you would agree) the couch, the direction the house faces, the yard...GRRR! I only have 3.5 month left, and I want a totally new house before this baby comes. Maybe its too much coffee, or nesting, or ADD, but I need some change in this house or I may just burn it down. Oh man, you should see my carpet. At one point, 2 years ago it was tan. Now it is polka-dot. So today...IKEA...it may just hold me over till I get Hadleys room done. Then I will work on the nursery, then the living room. And meanwhile the flower beds...planting and killing a weeks pay in flowers!

Life in our house...pretty routine. Work. Clean. No mommy, PINK cup. PINK straw. PINK bowl. Our 4th wedding anniversary came and went, with dinner, flowers and mini-golf. Sleeping with windows open has left me excited for camping this summer. Sleeping on my crampy sides and achy back have left me dreading camping this summer.

I feel like I am pulling things out of...you know where...to talk about so I will stop...And show you my happiness in phone pictures...
Date night with Dad and Mom...we didn't pay for her to play, but she sat there and made "pekew" noises and killed dinosaurs with Dad. Oh, and I gave her some bangs...not sure how I feel about it yet. Leave it up to me to fret and fret over a simple hairstyle change...
Rainbows.
Flowers from honey. This is after he golfed 2 nights in a row, leaving me home trying not to strangle the toddler, but it still made me blush a little at work, and I'm pretty sure thats why he did it...Found this gem on Facebook, in someone elses pictures. See that chubby lil red head kneeling on the right side? That would be me...Wasn't I cute?

And FINALLY: BABY NAMES. I am hating this. All the ones I love are taken, the ones I am ok with no one else likes, and the ones I don't like all that well Brent LOVES.
Suggestions?
So far I love: (Brent hates)
Campbell (may be taken though) or
Monroe (needs a feminine middle name)

These are OK:
Logan
Pyper
Corrinne

And Brent loves:
Kadence and
Dyllan

Oakley, Afton, Amelia (Milley for short), Emory, Ryann, Sawyer and middle name Anne have all been circling around too, though I dont LOVE anything (except the first two). I almost like Elsie Monroe, but not sure how I feel about Elsie. I think because my name can also be male, and Hadley I have also heard for boys, I have a problem with super girly names. Brent keeps telling me I like boy names, I do think I lean more toward ones that can be both.

I have always thought that the hardest thing about being pregnant is not the nausea, the weight, the aches, pains, and irritations...it is having to decide someone's name. What pressure!, who do you please?, and will the name fit? Do like I did with my last one....number the kid instead of name it.

STEP AWAY FROM THE ESPRESSO MACHINE.

You were and still are so CUTE! You're a busy girl...do you ever take time out for just you? I don't have input on the names..except Pyper and Sawyer-I like them.

You have plenty of time to decide-maybe you'll look at her and know exactly who she should be.

I like Elsie and I also like Ellie... Hyrum was going to be my Ellington Jo and I was going to call her Ellie. See none of my planning works. But I have to say that Oakley and Afton are cute! Amelia is too... It is Cimbrelyn's middle name.

yyyyyyuuuummmmmm espresso's!!!!!! Now you've thrown so many cute names out there I can't decide what one is my favorite!

Then what's wrong with me? I'm not pregnant and hate everything about my house too. I like Pyper but it rhymes with hyper which might fit perfect if you keep drinking those espresso's!! Anyway I miss you guys hope you had a good mamma's day.
