Snow....really do I need to say more?
Ugh, the snow is getting to me. I do not mind it at all if stayed out of my driveway and off the roads but apparently mother nature did not get my request. The new street we live on is horrible most of the time. We have an SUV that is hard to get up if you even remotely slow down. Just with the last storm, I tweeted about how it took Gary a couple hours to get home from Pittsburgh. I am so glad to have a work from home most of the time job. I would hate to commute an hour each way in these storms. I have a bajillion Dr apts in the next couple weeks for myself and the kids. I am seriously hoping the snow just stops and spring comes upon us. It would make this pregnant Mama a happy woman. Are there any no snow type dances or chants we can do?

This That and oh yeah that other thing
I am tired of the snow already. It gets in the way...big time! Gary was gone for over 12 hours yesterday of which 3 hours was commute time. Thankfully, he worked from home today and Dom had a school cancellation.
Speaking of Drs and all the apts, this month is NUTS! I had my Ob apt at the beginning of the month, had a sick visit for the upper respiratory infection and my toe infection, have to have my glucose test done on Saturday, blood work for my thyroid done on Saturday, get my toe surgery done tomorrow, get my neck sonogram done Sat the 29th (which I will miss part of my sons darn birthday party for!) and finally have my endocrinologist apt on the 27th. Can we say expensive month just for me! Logan also had a sick visit and has his 15 month check up this month. Dom will also has his 9 year check up. DUDE enough with the visits, already!
I thought once the new year started that our schedules would *maybe* calm down a bit. Ha, nope! Last weekend we had a birthday party...which was so much fun for us adults even. This weekend Gary is going to an all day guy thing on Saturday while the kids, my Mom and I head to a 31 party at Katie's. After, we have dinner plans. The weekend of the 22nd, we have no plans except to start getting ready for the MOM sale in March. The next weekend we have 2 birthday parties for Dom scheduled on the same day. Before we know it, February will be upon us. Maybe if I blink enough times then my due date will be here!
I have many friends and co-workers who are currently expecting babies. I have started researching for some of the showers that I will be involved in. It was then that I came across the most horrific shower cake EVER. It was a naked woman pulling a baby out of her...well you know what! Made out of modeling chocolate complete with hair, nips and everything else life like you can imagine. It really threw me for a loop and I may have even choked on my water. WHO WOULD WANT THAT? Um, not me nor any person that I will be helping give a shower for....that is for sure! If I were giving you a shower, what theme would most like? Milk and Cookies, Ducky or Diapers?
So many thoughts, so little time...and really no clever saying to sum up my ramblings!

Holiday Cards
I have chosen to get our holiday cards this year from shutterfly.com because they have some of the cutest designs at a reasonable price!
I love sending and receiving holiday cards, especially when they are picture cards. It is a wonderful keepsake to give and receive. It allows families to stay connected and see how families have grown with each year.
This year I have chosen to go with a 5 picture monogrammed snowman card. The card is adorable with bright colors and a smiling snowman. In my opinion, it has the best of everything! I can put 5 pictures of my adorable boys and it is monogrammed. Who really could ask for more? Not me!! I had a few favorites this year but this card seem to say our family in 2010! Why not take a look on shutterfly and send your loved ones that perfect holiday card?
I am also looking into some Christmas gifts from shutterfly as well. They have some really cute stationary designs that I know would be perfect for a special someone.
Happy designing to all this holiday season and remember “Shutterfly is offering 20% off all holiday cards”
