Mothers Day

Today started out by going to Church. It was tough getting out of bed, but it was well worth it.

After church, I did a little cleaning and then I went to the Mothers Day brunch @ the Elks Lodge with my parents and sister. I was actually planning a cook out for my mom, but she wanted to to do the brunch. The brunch was really good. I normally don't care for the meals at the Elks Lodge, but this was pretty good. It was all made by volunteers. There was bacon, scrambled eggs, waffels, hash brown bake, sausage bake casserole, french toast, and all sorts of desserts and drinks.

Here would be the BAD thing that happened at brunch. I wanted a water. They had water, juice, tea, etc. They also had vodka to mix with OJ, champange for mamosas, and bloody marys. Well, the OJ, Juice, tea, etc, was lined up on the table. So I grabbed a water. I asked two people, this is plain water right. They all said yes. So I go back to the table with my water and plate full of food. After eating some food, I took a big gulp of water...............................well, it wasn't WATER. It was Vodka on the rocks. What fucking moron puts Vodka on the rocks with the water. I spit it out. However, I did swallow some. I almost threw up. I was so pissed. I have not even taken a Tylenol since finding out I was pregnant. Even though i had terrible headaches. I have not had caffeine at all. Even though I could occasionally, I chose not too. And NOW I freaking drank straight vodka because of some fucking moron. I was so upset. I know it probably won't do anything, but still. WTF???

Anyway, the rest of the bruch was really good. I had a nice time with my mom and dad and the other ladies at the lodge.

Russ sent me a potted mini rose bush with a card that said "Happy Mothers Day. I wish I was there with you. Love you and Miss you". It was so sweet. He sent me the mini roses because the other day while at walmart, I wanted one, but we had already checked out and I didn't want to stand in line again. So I thought it was pretty cool that he chose to send me that. After a couple days, I'm going to plant it outside.

My mom and sister got me Mothers Day cards too. I didn't know they made "Mother-To-Be" mothers day cards. It was kind of cool. I think next years Mothers Day is going to be fantastik.

In other news, I gained a pound. This is not bad considering what I've eaten this weekend. I need to start eating healthier. I was doing so well before the morning sickness kicked in and then my diet went to hell. Tomorrow I'm going to get back on track.

I got some really cool gifts in the mail in the last few days.

This came from my friend Sandi in KC. The hats and blanket are from when she worked at Carters and she designed them herself. She's extremely talented. Now she works at Hallmark designing cards. How cool of a job is that? Anyway, she also made the cover for this boppy.














This next gift is from another Talented friend of mine. Emily in TX. She makes these clay babies and she's really good at it. Well, she sent me this clay fetus. It's a 10 week fetus, so it's what baby looks like right about it now. I think it's so cool. I love it. I'm going to find a really nice collectors box for it. Isn't she talented? Can you see the detail? It's crazy!!!

















And this one is from my mother in law and sister in law. It's a pregnancy charm bracelet. It comes with 9 charms, one for each month your pregnant. The last one is a little photo frame for a picture of you baby.









I love all my presents!!! Thank you to everyone. They are wonderful!!

Oh, I got my OB appointment finally. It's on the 19th @ 9:30. Yay!!

Well, that's it for today.

No one said anything about you. I did not get involved in the drama on EB for a reason, I certaintly wasn't going to let drama spill on to our site.
Just wanted you to know since you assumed the worst and refuse to read my response to your email.
