So Big!


This is a popular phrase around our house these days (due to a little lady who loves to enthusiastically throw her arms up in the air and giggle anytime you say it:) and it could refer to many things: how big Freya is getting, standing up all the time, just about walking in fact...never thought I would have a 9 month old who could walk, but this little tiger never ceases to amaze me! Also, the phrase could refer to me: feeling quite big, actually, with our little BOY! Yay! We had the ultrasound tech put the results in an envelope and then we were going to wait to open it, but we really couldn't, so we just opened it pretty much as soon as we got home from the clinic. Jason said he had already seen the tell-tale sign before she sealed the picture in the envelope...cheater:) We are so happy...a brother (and hopefully as easy-going as his older brother was as a baby). And lastly, the mess in our bedroom, due to the purging of our closet---tons to take to Hidden Treasures Thrift Store and tons to put in bins hoping that I will fit into them soon after this kiddo is born:) And then I guess the phrase, So Delicious! could refer to the smell of the pie baking in my oven right now:) I have been craving chocolate like a crazy women these days, so a chocolate chip pie seemed like just the ticket for a Saturday afternoon while children and husband snooze. Yum.
