Hi from Oklahoma with news!

This will be short but sweet. We made it to OK with no troubles, just one melt-down (Maia) 10 minutes before we landed. I kept praying that we would be on the ground soon so we could get off and RUN. I was so embarrassed. Ah well. Such is toddler-hood; such is my precious daughter.

The news is that we're at Brad and Michelle's house but Brad and Michelle are not here. They are at the hospital! There will be a baby today!! Her water has been broken and as soon as Ella gets up for her nap, we're heading to the hospital to see her mommy, daddy and sister!!!!

I'll be back later . . .

p.s. It's 75 degrees here today, but don't quite be jealous yet. It's suppose to be in the 40's tomorrow. But I'm soaking it up today while I can to last me till spring in good ol' Illinois :c)

Oklahoma here I come!!

I'm taking a vacation starting Monday! I haven't peeped even one word about it yet, but I'm flying solo (by myself, without kids, without hubby, all alone!!) on Monday to Oklahoma to spend 5 days with one of my bestest friends in the entire world and favorite brother-in-law and favorite niece, Ella!! I can't wait!

I'm nervous about flying since I've never flown by myself, and I'm nervous because I've never left my kids for more than 2 days, but I think I'll probably be very busy and have a lot of fun which will make the time go by fast and make me not think (too much) about my kiddos.

Plans are for Michelle to be induced on Wednesday, but but but . . . she'll probably be having baby A before that!! Maybe even now?! If not now, probably this weekend!!!!!! (Yesterday at her appointment she was 3 cm's!!!!!) Yay!!! Regardless, it's still good timing because I can do whatever I need to do to help Chel with the new baby and help Ella get accustomed to new baby. I don't really care what I do, because I'm there for Chel, Brad and Ella. I've never given myself fully like this before and it feels really good to be able to.

Did you read that Chel is 3 cm's as of yesterday?! Baby is coming sooooooon!!!!! And you know what's the most exciting about this trip?! I get to take newborn picture of baby A!!! Fresh brand new pictures!! I can't wait :c)

Now hopefully this winter storm that we are suppose to be getting doesn't hamper anything. We are getting up to 10 inches of snow this evening. Probably by Monday it will be all clear and the planes will be ready for take off.

Oklahoma here I come!
