Ya snooze.. ya lose.

Are you ready for the most unflattering picture ever?? I don't claim to be sleeping beauty but this is going too far. As I was uploading pictures to the computer today..I stumbled across this piece of Nikon heaven. Lee obviously took this and thought it was the perfect opportunity to showcase his drooling wife. There are a few things I would like to point out. Yes that is a pregnancy pillow. While going against the advice of some mothers, I've had a difficult time sleeping these past few months and there have been some nights where this monster of a pillow saved me from tears. Notice I'm taking up pretty much the whole bed. That's because Lee and I rarely sleep in the same bed anymore. No...we're not having marital problems. Its because I toss and turn all night long and if he's in the bed with me and so much as twitches, I'm wide awake. I pretty much get the bed to myself..but we alternate between bed and couch so he doesn't get stuck with the couch all the time. Yes, thats a goofy stuffed animal that we got on our disney honeymoon. I never sleep with a stuffed animal so it surprised me to see myself cuddling that little guy...."GORSH" (Goofy voice)..I have a feeling my sleep was compromised with the Goofmeister. Thanks, husband. You'll notice there are two bottles of lotion on my nightstand. Don't get the wrong idea. One of those is for stretch marks. Although, I have no earthly idea why I even purchased it because it really doesn't work..and I already had a few stretch marks so I guess I was just buying into the whole preggo belly cream market. The second bottle of lotion is the Johnson's baby lavender bedtime lotion. I've been buying this for years and I love lathering up in it before bedtime because it relaxes me. And that mirror? Well that's usually not sitting there but for this moment suited its purpose well...that is.. reflecting the person taking the picture of me. Busted, Lee. Although you can't see it in this picture....Simone is laying at the foot of my pregnant body...she loves to cuddle. Speaking of sweet, cuddly, snoozing pictures..the second picture is just that. Our firstborn...snoozing away in one of her favorite spots. Love!! :)
