Baby Shower.

I had the most wonderful Baby Shower ever. My friends good Anne and Michelle put it all together for me. They came over a few hours early to set up. Michael and I hung back a assisted in getting the proper trayers which were neccessary. It was a nice time to spend with Michelle and Anne and everything slowly came together. Then the guest started coming. All I can say about the guests is I could never have selected a better group of people. Many people were invited and many more would have fit in lovely but this group got along so great. They were all playing an interactive game which made everyone talk to everyone. My dear friend Tara loves to compete and was so into the game the when my friend Peg (Baby Niall's Godmother) came in she just started talking to her like she had known her for ever. Both of them being good friends of mine I thought maybe they had met at some event I had held before. No Tara went up to Peg gave her a big hug and asked her if she could recite the first three lines of the "Star Spangled Banner" Peg being who she is loved the intro and floor, she bellowed the first three lines. I'm so glad I didn't miss that. Everyone gave such wonderful gifts and Adriana enjoyed playing with the babies. She's preparing for her own baby to be born soon. She also loved all the attention she got from Miss Tara and Miss Sarah. Miss Tara read her a story or two or three. The clean us crew was great. They even stayed to take a finally picture.

Mama and Heather good time friends.

Tongue Lashing for Daddy

We had three appointments yesterday. This started daddy off in a bad mood. No work and no activity. Just when you think he is over it angry rears it's head in daddy again. It never matters what mama or Adriana do. Our sensitive daughter Adriana tries everything to make daddy better. Mama just ignores daddy and tries not to let him put her in a bad mood. After our family rosary daddy finally realized how miserable he was making the rest of the household. Thank you Mary!!! Has he was apoligizing for his moodiness his daughter decided to give him a good tongue lashing. "Daddy Our Lord does like when you get angry at us. You should ask Our Lord to help you to be nice to us daddy. I know it's hard daddy but next time just ask Our Lord." Aren't children so funny. It is all true and good to be reminded of but sometimes we don't want to hear it from a 3 year old. Wise for her age.

Dress-Up and a Wierd Smile

Dinner Chatter/Phrase of the Week

At dinner we were talking about the upcoming birth of Baby Niall. Adriana as excepted is very excited. She asked if the baby was coming tomorrow. I told her that it was still January and the baby isn't coming until February. It is only a few weeks away and mama and daddy can't wait for the baby to come either. She asked daddy "Can we turn January off?" I'm telling you the things the child comes up with. Later she asked if we could turn Febrary on. She is smart to put these things together.

Cooking Breakfast

Adriana is becoming a big girl. She love to help. Daddy has taught her how to crack her breakfast egg, take her toast out of the toaster, and butter her toast. It is great to watch my little girl grow-up.

The finished project - Breakfast!

Changing Dinner and Pizza Night!!!!

Dinner this week has been so off. I think tonight is the only night we are having what was on the dinner menu, PIZZA!!!!! I love PIZZA NIGHT!!! It is even better than leftover night, no prep, no heating, NO THINKING, just pick and eat. LOVE IT!!!!

We had pasta on Tuesday instead of Monday, Saturday was Lamb, Sunday potluck and leftovers the rest of the week. Can you believe we still have enough leftovers to eat leftover tomorrow night too. The best thing about having a dinner menu is that you shop to it and have all the ingredients you need on had. But being pregnant we make alot of substitutions. I love to be able to look at my menu and pull out dinner when I'm not too tire. We'll have chilli tomorrow night even though we have enough food for leftover. At least that is my plan right now.

Spending Time with Memere, FUN!!

Yesterday Memere came over so daddy could fix her car. Adriana believes that when anyone comes to visit they are here for her, most children do. Adriana had so much fun showing Memere her toys, playing games with her, and playing mommy to Memere. I think Memere was totally excused when she left but Adriana loved being with her while she was here.

Go Patriots

Michael has not been a sports fan since I met him but for some reason this year he was been following the New England Patriots since the begining of the year. I have always been a NE fan and excited that my husband joined me this year, especially because the are 17 - 0. Go all the way Pats.

Super Bowel here we come!!!!!!

Go Brady, MVP!!!!

Phrase of the Week

Again, hanging out in the bed Adriana was lying between mama and daddy. She was kisses us saying I love both of you. She has to be in the middle of us. What a snugglie girl. If Michael tries to touch mama he gets a tough lashing. She loves to protect her mama. Then out of the blue she says "I want to go into Mama's belly with the baby." Out of the mounths of babes. I guess she really want to see this baby. Enough talking about it already. lol. She is something else.

Silly Bedtime Talk

When the family is hanging out in the bed it is always a really fun and silly time. I few months ago Adriana asked the silliest question ever. It is a question only a child exposed to lots of nursing moms would ask. She said "Mama are you going to pour milk into your breasts for the baby?" Obviously this is still something Michael and I laugh about and Adriana will ask on occasion to get a laugh. She asked again lastnight which is why I'm blogging about it. She can be so silly and we love it!!!! I think she is half sersious, Michael told her God would pour milk in mama's breasts for the baby.





This would have been the phrase of the week had I been blogging at the time.
