Inspired by Sephora Plum


Ever since I picked up my Sephora birthday gift I have had such a purple inspiration. Sephora gave me 3 wonderful lip glosses for my birthday and I split them with Gretchen and Brielle. If there are any Sephora non-believers out there, I'm here to tell you it is all its cracked up to be! Anyway, I also bought purple flipflops and found "Raisin" mascara by Almay to match my plum lipgloss that smells like Dr. Pepper. Yes purple mascara is my new found love. I always thought my eyes were gray or blue until they clashed with blue mascara. My eyes are green! My search for green mascara led me to "raisin". For any of those with green eyes, please consider a brownish purple color, you may never go back!
ps. updated belly picture. There's a sweet little girl in there!

Fang!

This guy thinks he hang out over our front door! I walked right under him oblivious, he is HUGE! His lower abdomen is about the size of a quarter. I've never seen a spider like this before. Wayland thinks he awesome an started taking pictures like the paparazzi but don't let me find him alone... I have a can of hairspray and a lighter, and I know how to use them!
Say ello, to Way's little friend!


Stupid No Good Know It All Nurse!

We went for our consultation with our new OB today and didn't even meet the Doc. We filled out paperwork and the nurse ran down the list of usual questions about my medical history. Isn't that why I had my records faxed over, all 18 pages of that stuff. Nooooo, that wasn't good enough. Apparently, everyone else is incompetent! First she told me that my kids might get bored because we would be there for an hour and a half filling out paperwork! What?! Then I had to politely ask if I could change the channel on the tv in the waiting room because they were watching soaps and there was a whole lot of half-naked cuddling and kissing going on if you know what I mean and I don't watch that filth much less let my kids see it! So her rude answer was, "I have to shut it off when I come out there to talk to you anyway" and I said, "GREAT! Go ahead and shut it off!" Then she also had the nerve to reprimand me about my weight gain when we finally did start the consultation! I should've asked her if she looked in the mirror lately! She says, "The doctor will tell you only to gain 25 lbs. no matter what." Well, let the doc tell me and I will tell him that I don't feel 140 lbs is an outrageous amount of weight for a 7 month pregnant 29 year old. She also said that I have to RETAKE an hour long glucose test for gestational diabetes because she felt my last Dr. had me take it too soon; a week and a half too soon. Oh sure, insurance companies really like to have subscribers take the tests twice. I don't like her! I want Laser-Face back. And we were only there for 30 min. not an hour and a half. Hopefully, the doctor is better because my best friend recommended him. We'll see, our next appointment is next Thursday, I'll let you know how it goes...

Two Fer One

I thought this would be a good time to exploit the belly and share Waylands near death experience.
Note: Hand placement can hide muffin-tops. As of yesterday I have gained 30 lbs. Whoooo Hoooo!
Sometimes things can get pretty scary on the highway. (Everyone was ok.)

ADHD Quilting!

I started my denim quilt last Wednesday, the day after my grandma died. I have been trying to sew 1 to 2 squares a day since. There are only 6 squares and it has been 7 days but I said trying. I've been saving denim for this purpose and decided it's time to use my scraps. It's what Grandma would want me to do. Of course she wouldn't approve of me using a sewing machine for the job but I'm not conditioned enough to endure pushing a needle through denim yet. Pay no attention to the multi colored thread and the catawampus squares. It will be just fine in the end (if I ever get there).
