May

I do remember that in May we finally got the news we'd been waiting for for 9 months. I was pregnant! I of course have no patience for waiting to hear this kind of thing and took a test 4 days early. It was positive! Still, I told Mike we were not to tell anyone until I took a test a week later. Then I blabbed it to my neighbor that evening during a BBQ. In my defense, she kept trying to make me a margarita and I couldn't find a good enough reason to say no. So the next morning I had to call and tell my mom so I wouldn't feel guilty for breaking the news to someone else first. A week later, I took another test and of course it was positive too. I called and made an appointment with yet another different OB/GYN (they keep moving away on me!). I had to wait until June 3rd for my first appointment.

Mike celebrated his 33rd birthday on May 13. We had family and the neighbors (who may as well be family) over to BBQ. It was a fun night with kids running around and being crazy. Here is my littlest niece, Keilee stealing one of Brody's blankets:

My 4 year old niece, Madyx. She's a little weird and I love it!

And speaking of weird, here is my kid wearing the belt to my bathrobe as a headband. Gotta love him!
