Spring Break, Softball and 34 weeks and counting!!!

It official, Spring break is over!! The girls and I had an amazing time together and of course, like always, it goes by oh so fast!! We went to the zoo with a couple of my girlfriends and their kids, that was adventurous!! Four adults and eleven kids!! Madison was more in to her mp3 player and rocking out while walking through the zoo than looking at the animals!! Ms Ashleigh loved the snakes and has asked her daddy for a pet snake!! um, yeah, don't think we'll be purchasing that one for a family pet!!!! We had several play dates with our friends with much needed dress up time! Got to visit the American Gangster museum in Hot Springs and have dinner with Nana!! I d say the girls had a good ole time once again! The highlight of our spring break was our softball uniforms coming in, I'm so excited and proud of them. As the coach, I had my work cut out for me!! Two bake sales was interesting!! We did raise enough money for them though, and its official, we have the "big girl" uniforms now since we are playing with the big girls this year!!! And yes, I must take credit for designing them myself!!! lol.... And as for Mr Branson, well, I'm 34 weeks and still measuring full term at this point!! I have been having some contractions, but none strong enough to rush off to the hospital or call anyone just yet!!! Don't want the "Drama Queen" title...lol The insulin is going pretty good, although we have had to up our units once again, its no big deal, I'm actually getting used to being a pin cushion!! Madison is very excited, she tells us on a daily basis how ready she is for her buddy!!! Ms Ashleigh is constantly kissing Mommy's tummy and telling her baby "brober" she loves him, mommy has enjoyed that herself, melts my heart everytime, as for daddy, well, he is like mommy, we cannot wait to see who our lil boy looks like and how big he actually is going to be!!!

Mr Bransons Baby Shower

This past Saturday my wonderful best friends Kali and Kara threw a baby shower for me. I must say the turn out was incredible, I was amazed that I could actually fit that many adults along with that many kids in my house at one time! Though I never got a head count, I think the kids beat the grown ups!!! lol It really touched my heart to have all my family and friends together in the same room, maybe its just a pregnancy hormone thing I've got going on, but it was very hard for me not to get so emotional!! The kids had a lot of fun, Scott made sure of that! He really out did himself, like always!!! I couldn't ask for a better husband! He bought a duckie pinata and filled it with three giant bags of candy, party blowers, bubbles, etc....The whole kid table was a big hit!!! Thank you Scott, I love you so much!! Did I mention he even brought his huge pregnant, hormonal wife a dozen roses for the event too?!?!?! They looked very lovely on the cake table!! Ahhh the cake table, that was another highlight to my day!!! I not only had just beautiful two tier cake that Kali had made, my mom also brought me a Bulgarian cheese cake too....both cakes were from Ambrosia cake company in Hot Springs and very well known for their awesome cakes!!! The food was amazing to, Scott made it very clear that he wanted "man" food at his sons shower, so we made three different kinds of chicken wings, BBQ meatballs and had four rack of ribs from Allen's BBQ!!! Not to mention all the fruit and veggie trays we had too!! Mr Branson received a lot of wonderful gifts for his arrival, my mom, like always went over board and stuffed a diaper bag as full as she could and still had to bring the rest in a walmart sack and my mother in law made Branson a beautiful choo choo train quilt and allowed my daughters to stitch on it too.....very special to me, as grandma always makes quilts for her grandbabys!!! Scott and I loved all of our gifts and we are sure Branson will to as well!! Madison and Ashleigh had a great time at the shower too, they played hard all day with their friends!! And Maddie was Mommy's helper when it came to opening the gifts. I'm truly blessed to have such wounder family and friends!! Ive included some pictures for all to enjoy.
