Just Breathe.

I love that photo. My boyz. Again. HA! I guess I can do that since it's my blog!

We just got back from the Doctor. ::sigh::
I love good doctors. You know the ones that put you at ease and explain everything in such a way that you don't feel stupid, and when they're done you don't have any questions. Gibb's totally fine. We are going to take the tiny little mass out and it'll be an outpatient procedure. He will have to go under anesthetics, and that makes me nervous, but I'm trying just to think positive... The surgeon told me that we can plan the surgery around our time schedule. He told us not to cancel vacations, and to just plan for it during a time that would be good for us. So that's a good thing. I think we're gonna plan it for mid-September, after kits are sent out and I can just focus on my little guy. He was such a trooper. He usually screams when doctors approach him, but he didn't this time. He just laid on the table with a train in each hand and let the doctor press on his belly. He even chattered a bit abt his button...my silly little man is gonna be okay. Thank goodness.

I'm feelin' chatty, so I think I'll do Sophia C's blogging challenge.

Top 10 Surprises in My Life:
(in no particular order)

one.
Call it inexperience. Call it naivete. I didn't expect motherhood to be this hard. I mean there's lots of good stuff, but there's lots of rough stuff too...

two.
My scooter. My sixth Christmas I found a bright blue scooter under a quilt. Man, that was a great Christmas.

three.
Until recently I thought Alaska was an island. Really. I did. I was *sHockeD* when I found out that it's atached to Canada. Geography is soooo not my thing.

four.
Kissing is like really fabulous. ::blush:: I won't tell you how I found that out. ;)

five.
The day my grandma passed. I never ever ever thought I'd lose her.

six.
Valentines Day 1999. Robb planned the bestest date ever. He sneaked into my dorm room and took me to the beach for breakfast. We had cereal and just watched the sunrise. While I was gone he had my friends decorate my room with balloons and flowers Then we went for a hike to a waterfall and he brought a picnic and sketch books with oil pastels. We just sat on a rock and drew pictures. Then we went to a movie and dinner and sat on the beach some more. ::sigh:: Those were the days. ;P

seven.
I can buy flowers for myself. AND enjoy them.

eight.
Scrapbooking. I so never thought I'd be a scrappin' mamma. THAT is a B I G surprise. Even now.

nine.
Finding music. My parents were never really into music. I mean we listened to it in the car, but in High School I really got into it. And it wasn't just because I dated a boy who played guitar. I swear. ;)

ten.
Surprise birthday party in 8th grade. I didn't really have great friends that I could count on until that year. I remember being so floored that people would take the time to put something like that together for me...
