Dear Makers....



Dear Creators of the Royal Dansk Cookie Tin:




My name is Jazmine and I would just like to take a minute to thank you for the wonderful gift that you have given to me, your cookie tin!


This tin has been a part of my life since I was a wee girl! When I see a tin in my home, I just know that it is officially the Christmas season. It brings me joy and happiness to know that inside are yummy sugary cookies waiting for me. I want to personally thank the person who invented the multiple layered tin, just when you think your cookie is gone, just take the paper out, there is more inside!! Brilliant!~


So thank you to all for this fantastic cookie! I am eating them now as I write to you!! Keep up the good work!

Sincerely,


Jazmine, my pants are probably not going to fit by January, Livingston!


P.S If you could make a whole tin out of the sugary pretzel looking cookie, I think it would be a big seller!

PEANUT



If you can't see it, I will help you along. The baby is the white blob (a very cute blob) in the middle of the dark almost circle in the middle. Imagine peanut standing up, but because its head is 1/2 the size of it's body, the head is drooping down, so his eyes are looking down. Peanut's little arm is jabbing my side but it looks like it's coming out of his/her head, He/she is a lefty!

Our First Thanksgiving, we better like Pie this year!

My title is based off of the fact that since I have been blessed with child, that "we" have not enjoyed sweets. It's a shame really, sugar just isn't my thing. I know it's not a bad thing, but come on...THANKSGIVING is on Thursday, and I like Pie! So, I am giving my little bundle of joy a pep talk, and making sure he/she understands what is at stake here!

In other news, we had our first ultrasound this last week, and it is by far the coolest experience, the Dr. (who is AMAZING by the way) was just doing her thing, and giving me all of these instructions and do's and don'ts of pregnancy, and while I was trying to keep up with her, I look over and all of the sudden there is our little peanut on the big screen. I figured I should get used to seeing him/her on the screen since I am going to push my child through hollywood! :)

Other than that, things are great. We get sick or tired ever so often, but usually not at the same time, and if we do, then peanut has been gracious enough to let it happen on a Saturday, so I can lounge!

P.S. I would like to give a shout out to my fantastic hubbin Brenton. He has been so wonderful with all of my random crying, being sick, having to cook dinner because I now refuse to..food = eww gross, he takes the dog out on walks when I am too tired/sick to. And he is so dang cute when he gets all excited about being a dad. I am very blessed to have a great supportive husband! So..thank you sugar!

(Right now Blogger image is not working, so I will try to add my pic, later today! )

Have a great Monday everyone!

We are 11 weeks and going strong!

The Beginning

Well thank you to all who are so excited for us, we too are very excited!

We are planning for our little bundle of joy to arrive around June 13th-ish. And for those of you trying to do the math, that means I am only 8 1/2 weeks along.

(Gasp) I know, it's before the first 3 months, but seriously I was never good at keeping secrets anyway!

And for those of you who are wondering...YES Brenton is the father!

As for "how I am doing"...well lets just say I know some ladies who spent most of their time in the Ladies room home or away...I have found that I have a super power, where I feel fantastic the whole day. That is until I walk through my door (or run) and then all bets are off.

I think it's just a mental thing, and I vow to be able to stop it!

What I don't get about being Pregnant is: Why is my body not letting me sleep at night? I get that you don't sleep when you are huge and your back hurts, and your stomach is about to explode...but I have a pinto bean inside of me...what the????
