Surprise! We're having a ...

Vasectomy!  Everywhere I turn people are pregnant or have newborns.  I'm sure it has always been this way, I'm just aware of it more.  I am not.  We are done.  I am only 28.  I still have the drive to have more kids, my biology is in overdrive.  Thankfully my brain has evolved and I can overcome the drive.

The best thing about being 28 and knowing that you are done having children is knowing that you can be there for all of your friends that aren't finished.  I can enjoy their pregnancies and labor pain free and enjoy their sweet bundles of joy and give them back without the staying up all night and engorged breasts.  I get to focus on me and my body again which has made me a better mom and hotter wife :).

I get to cut the cords, that is I get to do the snip.  I'm more than thrilled!  I've been instructed that I am not allowed to have my phone in there, not by the doc, but by my husband.  Rumor has it wives have taken pictures!!!  I'm still going to have him take my pic with the scissors in hand and I'm going to let out a "muahaha" when I do it.  I wouldn't be myself if I didn't make a joke!

So raise your glasses and give a cheer!  Baby free days are almost here!



On a blog note, I'm hoping to get the Snow White Party posted tomorrow (it was really cute) and I'm working on a "Green Week" for later this month.  Get ready to save some green!  I'm also co-hosting a baby shower this weekend, so I should have some cute baby shower ideas/gifts for you too.  I told you there are babies everywhere!  So excited for my dear friends to have theirs!

Here is a sneak pic pick of Snow White!

Maternity Shoot with Amy

I really wanted to take maternity pics for my bestie and she graciously let me raid her babies toys and pose her outside in the July heat. Thankfully she has a house with a great backdrop in a sweet little Oklahoma town. It was so relaxing not taking pics of my kids, who run around all the time and move, as I'm constantly saying "hold still, look this way, Jack, Regan, everyone eyes on mommy!!" Not too shabby for my first set of someone other than my littles. I am really looking forward to this baby, maybe a little bit more than my own (probably because he won't be coming home with me, lol.) I can't wait to take pictures of Hayden when he arrives. I have a feeling I'm going to love this kid like he was one of my own. Thanks Amy for letting me be your "photographer."
