If…
If you don’t have a clean dish in the house…
If you’ve reached the “don’t have a clean shirt, either” state…
If your kids now look for clothes on the floor instead of in their dressers…
If you’re kind of regretting taking down that curtain & ripping up that carpet…
If you haven’t made your bed in over a week [cringe]…
If your blog is becoming quite neglected and it’s not likely to get better any time soon…
If you hate using your microwave, you happily banished it to the dungeon laundry room months ago where it is used only by your spouse for the purpose of melting butter for popcorn,
AND YET you found yourself tearfully stocking up on frozen (don’t call them TV-) dinners at the grocery store…
Speaking of TV,
If you let your kids watch THREE and a half movies yesterday afternoon – yes, just after posting your little anti-media soapbox – because you figured detox would be the same after three as it would be for one…
If your kids have perfected the phrase, “Aw, poor Mommy!”
If all of this is happening, and you just want to spend your time like this…
You might be me,
and the reason for all of the above might be because…
There’s a baby coming in March!
Okay, let me say it a little louder.
There’s a baby coming in March!
Answers to all your excited questions to come in another post soon. 
Okay. I confess, I did dishes this morning – not because I cared to have them clean, really, but because it’s so much more pleasant to throw up in the sink than the toilet. [nod to Lara G.] I bet you really wanted to know that, huh.
Also. Now that I think about it, the hammock up there would be no good for my hyper-sensitive motion-sickness. Ooooh, ick. I’m going to have to find a different happy place. Beach chair on the sand, yes. Much better.
Congratulations! Another lucky baby on his/her way to a great mom & family!
Congratulations! You and the Mr. are excellent parents and baby Smith couldn’t come to better. Best wishes.
P.S. Don’t beat yourself up about the movies either. We’ve all done it.
Thanks!
Coming from you, I’m dumping the movie-guilt.
Congratulations! Here’s hoping this pregnancy is easy on you!
Congratulations!! I am SO excited for you!!!!!
Congratulations! What wonderful news!! I have always felt like morning sickness is just to remind us that the best miracles in life are usually messy…
This little spirit is so blessed to be coming to such a good home!
Woohoo! Nice post…cannot wait to see you…
Condolangratulations — or something

but I’m happy for you guys and that that sweet baby that will be coming to such a wonderful mommy and family. Congratulations!
AHHHH!!! That’s so exciting! And crazy all at the same time!
So we really need to get together now, we’ve fallen off the bandwagon.
*squeeeee*!
Can I say that I love you again? Really, the things I miss when I go on vacation . . .
