What About Me?

You know that song that goes...."What about me? It isn't fair. I've had enough now I want my share. Can't you see?" Yadda yadda yadda.
That's kind of what I'm living right now.

Although I lack photo proof, Lily and John are INSEPARABLE right now.

Everything John says is hilarious.
Everything John does is perfect.
Everything John looks at is something she HAS TO have.
Everything Lily wants, she gets....from John.

Yes, it's sweet. But what am I? Chopped liver?

He comes home and the dog can hardly keep his bladder in check and Lily goes absolutely bonkers.
I come to the babysitter to pick her up and she runs the other way and hides.
WTH?

So, in order to gain some points, I've taken the sweet little girl to some playdates.



First there was Tanner...


...which made her sleepy.

Then there was Charlie...
...who let Lily poke him a bit.


Baby in a box


Then I left Lily with our sweet babysitter, AJ, while I went to a friend's baby shower. It was great to have some grown up time on the weekend and catch up with some friends.


I even got a little something out of it from my good buddy Erin.....
Some cute maternity clothes!

Wait just a second.
Back the bus up.
Some WHAT?!?!

Yup, I said it.
Maternity clothes.
Lily had another big birthday present that we haven't reported on until now.
She's going to be a big sister this summer!
"But don't you have a 13 month old?"
Yes, yes I do.
"Was this planned?"
Yes, we wanted another one.
No, we had no clue it really only takes one time to make it happen.

This is how we told my mom....by asking her to open Lily's last little gift from us:


And here's the little peanut today:
Growing strong with a hefty heartbeat.
It's not 100% confirmed yet, but it looks like it could be another girl!!!
As for anything being about me.....
Well, I'm accepting the fact that's not going to happen for quite some time now.
