Nice Day Yesterday, and Good Morning so far!

Yesterday I had such a nice day. Claire turned 5 at 11:00 am. I dropped of the girls to preschool with rice krispie squares for the class to celebrate with her. I then took Cameron to the doc to get a perscription for Cameron's ear infection.

We came home. And at home my MIL took the day off and her Mom was there (Nonna B) so Catie stayed with them. MIL gave me 2 hard boiled eggs to eat and some tea for breakfast. I then whipped back to school to get Claire and Carly. We came home, opened some nice emails for Claire, listened to all of her messages from family on the phone.

I had a nice afternoon just with my 5 year old Claire. We went to Wendy's for chicken strips. Then, I took her clothes shopping and shoe shopping. Every Mom's dream with their daughter. We has so much fun together, and I really appreciated the time just with her. At the mall we also picked out 3 newborn sleepers and two onsies for the new baby. A pink one, a blue one and a green one. I did something nice for our new little one.

In the evening we had a wedding reception to go for some running friends of ours. They found love at the Running Room. It started at 7 pm. It was lovely. I actually got on the dance floor and shook my bootie, and my baby belly. I didn't think I would have that much fun! But I danced till almost 11:30 at night. Taking about 5 pee breaks and food and water breaks. I drove Cliff home...I like to call myself the PDD. Pregnant Designated Driver.

This morning Cliff left early for work, and all kids all slept in til about 7ish. Catie was up first, so I brought her in bed with me to be "cozy". It was lovely. The baby was moving all about, and I really enjoyed that.

I had a neat baby dream last night too. My first one of this baby. My Mom gave birth for me (I think that means she was trying to take away all of my pain of the pregnancy), and I went running to the hopital to find out what I had had. And the nurse says its a girl...and I run into the room and say "Caroline Mae" I love you. She was a beauty in my dream. Chubby with dark hair. I just held the baby and cried. She was everything I could imagine and more. And she was completely healthy as far as I could tell.

So, now today is Claire's Hawaii birthday party with her friends. I am excited for her. Cameron is going out with his girlfriend, and I am dropping Catie off to my parents. Carly is one of the "guests" today. Claire is so excited!

I am so pleased.

Cathy
