Two years ago today I had my daughter. My water broke and I needed pitocin. I was in labor for almost 15 hours. She was 38 2/7 weeks and 6 lbs 11.9 oz and 19 in long. She is now 26ish lbs and 30 something inches. She talks, walks, runs and acts crazy. Sometimes she drives me crazy with her tantrums and not listening but she has been delightful! The last two years have been wonderful and I wouldn't trade them for anything.
Unfortunately I spent the morning and early afternoon doing things without her. I volunteered at the consignment sale so I could shop last night and then I had my pre-op appointment for my LASIK surgery scheduled for next week. But now I am watching veggie tales with her and later will be getting ready for her nemo birthday party tomorrow.

Children's consignment day
So today I went to work at 0530 so I could leave at 530pm to go shopping at our local twice a year big children's consignment sale. Well unfortunately I woke up at 0330 and stayed up tossing and turning till 0430 when I had to get up. My mind was going crazy thinking too much. I worked the 12 hours and headed over to the sale. I spent (drum roll please).....$266 on one child! Plus a few things for other people. Now when you think of this number know that my child will not be in need of any clothes for the doing and summer at all now and shoes too except maybe a pair of sandals. I also bought items that I will be using for Christmas gifts. Also remember that when we adopt the other child will/can play with these things too. And eventually when we are done with these toys and clothes I plan to sell them as well so it's a win win investment. Some people may say I am justifying spoiling my child but I cannot beat those prices! And some of the other things we needed. And if you want to think my girl is spoiled then you may do so but God had blessed us with her and I have the opportunity right now to do this for her so why not. She is not spoiled but blessed! Needless to say I am exhausted and will be volunteering at the sale in the morning so goodnight!
