My head is working overtime...

So I had to share a moment - yesterday I had a busy day at work and then of course as every mother knows my day really begins when my children come home from school, so the day began at 3:30.  Morgan walked home from the bus stop and brought me a flower from Michael's tree down the street. I love that it reminds her of Michael and I have a bowl full of flowers now as well as the tree my brother grew for me so I will always have Michael's tree with me.  This is the time of year it blooms.  Abbi gets home a little later so Morgan and I jumped on the golf cart to buzz down and surprise her and pick her up (the stop is about a block from our house).

Anyways, we then proceeded to the waffle house for dinner (I know, I know... but they have waffles for dinner, yum!) which I may add is always some source of entertainment for me.  I can't help it, but something always strikes me as funny when we go to the waffle house, so I digress for just a moment.  Yesterday at dinner Abbi told me her sprite tasted awful, like fizzy water minus the syrup, so we told the waitress and mind you Abbi is sick (on antibiotics, but still sore throat and boogers to boot), so the waitress without hesitating picked Abbi's drink up and took a big swig and said ewww you are right and brought her a new one.  Seriously, that really happened and all of our eyebrows were raised, AND I am still laughing a little this morning. 

Then we headed over to Michael's the craft store and I proceeded to have a breakdown in the store.  Yes I did and it took me until this morning to put it all completely together.  No it is not the name, it is that time of the year... it was Christmas, I really missed all the Christmas hoopla last year, because I was on bed rest and we specifically waited until after the Holidays to have Michael to avoid associating it with the Holidays for the girls, but apparently my brain does not work the same. 

The point is I have some issues to deal with and I would be lying if I did not tell you as I was being neurotic, I could not help but worry about every possible thing that could go wrong with this pregnancy - from cord issues to trisomies to brain development to kidneys - so while I know God is in control and I know all of this, but my head is working overtime right now so stay with me as I have a doctors appt. Wednesday and we may actually after all find out the flavor of this baby.
