Mother in law

So yesterday was my mother in law's birthday. Junior called to tell her happy birthday for us and they talked a little; normal how are you doing etc stuff. Of course she asks how I'm doing and with the pregnancy and all. THEN she tells Junior that she has already bought Bagel something! How exciting!!! I mean, regardless of what it would be the fact that she is already buying Bagel stuff means she's excited! Not that I doubted she would (ok maybe a little) but I knew she was excited when we told her. Anyway, she bought Bagel a Leap Frog. How cool is that??? Those things can be pricey! I'm so excited! Maybe I'm especially excited since this is Bagel's only living grandparent. But let's not go there before I get emotional. However, Junior's aunt and uncle have always been like parents to him and so we consider them grandparents to Bagel too.


Ok I can't help but I thought oh man, mom and dad would have been so excited I can't imagine how much they'd do for Bagel before Bagel even gets here. Hurts my heart a little.


OK ANYWAY, do not make a pregnant get more emotional than she already is. MOVING ON. So my sis in law also gave me a set of clothes for Bagel! they're not new or anything, but still very meaningful. It's a Mickey Mouse pajama set that both my neice and nephew wore when they were babies. So it's kind of neat that Bagel will get to share that with them. Especially since my neice and nephew are 9 and 10 years old respectively! My how time flies by. In fact, by the time I have Bagel my nephew will be 11 years old! OH MY GOODNESS... AND he will be finishing up elemntary and on his way to middle school!!! Oh man... time flies by so quick! I can still remember when I started middle school like it wasn't that long ago. Hmmm... maybe I need a wake up call. You are NOT THAT young, Gail. haha!


I can't wait for Bagel to come join us in this world. I wonder what he/she will look like. More like me? More like Junior? Neither of us? haha! I hope Bagel doesn't get my nose though. It's very flat. haha! Although I (have learned to) love my nose, I hope Bagel is more fortunate than I am! Junior doesn't want any of our kids to look like him at all! I don't know why! He says he hopes all our kids look like me. I guess I should take that as a compliment. But I want our kids to look like both of us!


Well this week on babycenter.com, it's suggested we start talking to Bagel now. I can't wait but at the same time i'm a little bit at a loss of words! haha! Maybe because even though I know Bagel is there, since I haven't felt Bagel or even show it's almost like i'm not pregnant. So then I feel I might just be talking to my belly and not Bagel. Well I'll make that my goal this week. Talk to Bagel!
