Happy

It's one of those days when I feel really happy. I'm a little surprised at my good mood considering Kami left this morning after visiting for a few days, and Nate has been gone since Monday and won't be home till tomorrow night. I'm also a little surprised I feel this way because I woke up soooo nauseous from all the popcorn, licorice, Yorks, and Reese's I ate last night. (We watched Soul Surfer which was a really good movie.) And it's 5000 degrees here, always. 

And maybe my cheerfulness is simply because I crossed a few things off the to do list, and I don't have to make dinner tonight. I could just be happy because that there's still candy left from last night and I have some cute new earrings. But really, I think my high spirits are a result of my all around wonderful life. I love my kids more than they'll ever know, I miss my husband like crazy and am completely in love with him, and I have other family and friends that have me thanking my lucky stars every day. 

I'm trying to take 20 extra seconds in my day and do something with Emmy's hair. She's even sporting some piggies in the last picture. Here are some shots of us girls the past few days:

LOVE her hair in piggies! She is growing too fast! Wish some of that happy would rub off on me, I suppose I should be grateful that I am even pregnant instead of wallowing in pity that I am huge and in pain everyday...

You do look awesome! I miss you, next time I come through Vegas, how about visiting late into the night eating junk food?

I LOVE the pictures of you with your girls! A.D.O.R.A.B.L.E. Don't you just love those days when your life feels so wonderful? Not having to make dinner usually makes me feel that way too!! :)

How could Emmy change so much just since you were here? She's getting even cuter, if that is possible. And I love how Natalie smiles with ever bit of her being when she does. Looking forward to Sept 1!

Such cute pictures! Emmy is a doll! You and your girls are beautiful!

And I actually cried laughing at the cookie monster "cupcakes". I was doing ok until I read the line "nailed it". Perfect. Haha
