The Pink Explosion

This past weekend my mother-in-law and sisters-in-law, threw me a baby shower in Utah County and it was really fun! We got so many cute girl clothes that really and truly, Baby Hot Pocket will be the cutest baby on the block. Take a look at all the loot she received!



As I start to look at photos from over the last couple of weeks, I notice that Hot Pocket seems to be absolutely glowing in every photo. he has a sparkle in eyes that I don't think I've ever seen before. He will wake up in the morning and talk to the baby and it sounds crazy, but she starts moving all around when he talks to her.

An interesting side note, I love the tv show Cops. I love cops in general and I would be lying if I didn't say that on more than one occasion I have gone out of my way to watch real cops in action. If Hot Pocket ever bought me a police scanner, i think i might turn into the crazy house-bound lady with all the pets who sits in a dark room glued to her scanner. So you can imagine my absolute delight when we were spending a quiet Saturday night sitting on the couch watching tv, and Hot Pocket started singing the theme song to "Cops" to my tummy. And I swear, she kicked.

ANYways, I digress. My whole point was to point out the juxtaposition between photos of my dear husband and myself. He looks all exuberant and I look...tired, worn out, and pale.Take this photo for example:




I thought I'd throw in a couple more pictures of the baby room. It's starting to come together and thought I'd show you guys what it looks like as of late.



And yes, that is our black cat, ernie, laying over the heater vent. What a turd.
