Get Ready!

Kara is 4 almost 5 weeks old now and she actually slept last night for 4 hours!  YAHHHH!!!  It may not seem like much but it sure felt like it to me.  I hope this is the start of good things.  Thanksgiving has come and gone and Christmas will be here lickidy split.  We went and cut down our tree this weekend and got it up along with some Christmas lights outside.  So now it's just a matter of knocking out the Christmas shopping.  I have a feeling it might be a little more difficult this year for me.  Last year I could go on my lunch break and shop this year I will have to take both Kelly and Kara with me and they pretty much fill up the shopping carts by themselves...so this might not be so easy.  Also, shopping will have to be scheduled around nap and feeding times.  Anyway, before we all know it the holidays will have come and gone and I will be back at work juggling 3 kiddos and a full time job.  Wow, I need to try and enjoy this last month as much as possible!!

It's a family tradition...

Kara is now 3 weeks old and all hell has broken lose.  This is what happens with all of my babies...around 2-3 weeks everything goes down hill.  We went to the Dr. yesterday and she has acid reflux (like all of my babies) so she is now on medicine. Now, it will all be a matter of the right concoction of formula and meds.  Hopefully, we can figure it out way faster than it took with Kelly.  Kelly had her 15 month shots (even though she is only 14 months) so now she has been running a fever since yesterday.  Soooo...this week in general has been kind of crappy.  The other night around 1am after listening to Kara cry for 4 hours straight Bryan got up and took over.  I looked at him and said, THIS is exactly why I am never having any more babies. I know this might sound bad but I just hate the newborn baby stuff.  It's always a nightmare for me.  I wonder if there are Mom's out there that love the newborn phase???  I'm great with my babies once they hit like the 4-5 month mark and then onward just gets better.  But the baby-baby stuff just sucks for me. 

On a more positive note, my sister-in-law came over the other day and helped me organize all the clothes we have.  It was really a lot of work and I am so appreciative for her help.  Let me tell you it's not easy to get a lot done with a 1 month old and a 1 year old.  Also, THANK GOD my Mom came with me yesterday to the Dr. b/c there is NO way I could have handled Kelly and Kara at the Dr. by myself.  It's times like this that I am grateful I have family around.

Picture Update

It seems like I never have any free time (actually it doesn't seem that way...it is that way) so this blog is getting neglected.  Anyway...here are some recent pics!

Kelly is so much fun but such a handful.  She def. keeps me on my toes!

Halloween Fun

Halloween was a little hectic this year with the new baby but it was still fun.  My Mom helped out and stayed home with Kara so Bryan and I could take the girls trick or treating. 



That's Kaylie being typical Kaylie!!

A lot going on...

Kara is 1 week old today!  It's crazy how there is so much going on right now.  My days and nights are flying by.  I'm super busy during the day because of Kaylie and Kelly and at night I'm pretty much dedicated to Kara.  Sooo...everything seems like one big blur right now.  Below are some recent pics!

 Kara sleeping...wish she would do this at night!
 Kara looking not so happy that I have a bow on her head.
 Kelly right were she likes to be most...outside.

Baby Girl #3

So we finally had our baby and it was a little girl!  I have to say I wasn't surprised I thought it was a girl deep down the whole 9 months.  I couldn't be happier.  Of course I feel a teeny-tiny bit sorry for Bryan but only when the girls hit the teen years and "aunt flow" starts visiting.  Aside from that I think he's one lucky guy to have all these girls love on him.  I know he feels exactly the same too.  :) 

Everyone meet Kara Michelle!!

 This picture is from her actual birthday, Oct. 24th!  She was 7lbs 10oz. which is a lot bigger than Kelly was but she still seems so tiny.  The crazy thing is that she came out with a head full of brown hair.  More hair than I have ever seen!!  All of our babies are basically bald until they are like 2 years old so this was a shock.  Of course in typical fashion she looks exactly like her daddy!  ALL of our babies look just like Bryan, at least he knows they are his.  Ahhahahahah!!!
This is Kara on day 4...she is a very good baby so far but we still have our days and nights mixed up.  It's a work in progress...we'll get it straight hopefully sooner than later!  Aside from that all is well and we are all getting adjusted.  I feel really great after my 3rd c-section so that is good too.  That's it for now....I'll have more as the week progresses.

Only a day away!

It's hard to believe tomorrow around this same time I will be having a baby.  I'm feeling excited, nervous, scared, concerned all at the same time.  Excited to meet this new little person but scared & nervous about the surgery and concerned because of course I want to have a healthy baby.  I kept Kelly belly home with me today so her and I can spend as much time together as possible.  We walked Kaylie to school together this morning and that was sweet.  Kaylie is really such a sweet heart.  She waved and blew me and Kelly kisses all the way to the door.  I think Kelly and I will try and eat lunch with her today since it will really be the last time that is possible for a while.  After today all of our lives will be changed  - in a good way!

Weekend Update

So this weekend was long and slow....you'd think it would be flying by since my due date is so close but it seems like that just made the weekend drag.  Saturday I was having contractions and was very uncomfortable.  My parents came over around 7pm because I thought for sure Bryan was going to have to take me to the hospital.  It seemed like they finally stopped right around the time my parents got to the house, so I was super happy we didn't drive all the way to the hospital for a false alarm.  Bryan got the Oak tree planted in the front of the house, yay for that b/c it means he will actually be in doors next weekend when I come home with the new baby!  :)  Check out our new tree.

Final product!  The new Oak tree.

Last Day

So today is my last day at work until next year, yay!!!  My co-workers have been so nice to me this week.  The girls in the office took me to lunch yesterday and then when I got back to the office everyone handed me a card with a gift card and money inside for me and the new baby.  It was so super sweet!  I actually cried a little, which of course made most of the girls tear up too.  It was just so sweet and thoughtful and totally not expected.   Anyway, I will miss the office but I will be back in Jan. so I need to soak up and enjoy my time off while it lasts!  Not much else happening except getting ready for baby #3 oh and Bryan had one of our pine trees cut down so now he is planting an Oak tree this weekend.  I told him I don't care what he does as long as he is not working outside the following weekend (baby #3's first weekend home)!!!

Count Down Begins

My count down to the new baby really began months ago but now it is really-really on!  Oct. 24th we will have a new bundle of joy.  Of course along with all the joy and happiness of a new baby comes lots of not so joyfulness like...lack of sleep, lots of crying, peeing, pooping and a whole new family adjustment.  But I can't wait and I can't wait to find out if it's a little girl or boy that has been in my belly kicking me for 9 months!  I pray every night for a healthy baby just like Kaylie and Kelly. Now we are less than 1 week away from meeting the new little one!  It's very exciting.

So What Wed.!

This week I am saying so what if....
  • I didn't make my bed in this morning.  I'm 9 months pregnant and trying to get myself and an 8 year old and a 1 year old ready!
  • Wednesday's have become my night to make frozen meatballs in the crockpot.  Kaylie loves them...but picky Bryan is not a fan.
  • My Dr. wanted me to deliver this baby today but I held off for a week b/c of work issues.  It's really stupid b/c they don't pay me enough to care like this!
  • I'm actually really mad at myself for not having the baby today.  What was I thinking??
  • Bryan continues to ask me not to get my tubes tied but he is crazy...this little lady is having no more kids!
  • I really like the Real Housewives of Miami this year. 
  • I am training my 3rd temp this week and yesterday was day #1 and she was kind of annoying but I think she will at least show up everyday!
  • I'm ready ready ready to have this baby and find out what it is!!  Exciting!

What am I wearing Wed.?

Yep...that's what I am wearing today and that is me 9 months pregnant!  I have 1 week left as of today!

Manic Monday

So this is just a quick update...my 2nd temp didn't show up today so now I am really running out of luck on my replacement.  Not to mention today is crazy busy for me plus I have a Dr.'s appt.  If I have started to dilate at all she will tell me I have to have the baby on Wed. Which at this point I am A-OKAY with!  My work is just going t o have to figure it out.  I'm not going to stress about it anymore.  In other updates, this weekend was pretty good.  Just hung out for the most part and Bryan helped a lot all weekend and that was super appreciated!  He even went grocery shopping with me on Sat.  That's all I have for now...just another manic Monday.

I've had better...

I've had better weeks.  This week has not been great for me.  For starters I have mucho work issues, my temporary replacement didn't work out so now I am back to having no replacement after training the other girl for almost two weeks.  Granted the woman was (as Bryan put it) a "Train Wreck" but I was still hoping to finish getting her trained and wash my hands of the situation.  But no such luck!  Now I have one week left at work and it will be spent trying to get someone else up to speed on my job.  Not cool. 

Also, I think it's really interesting how two people can have a discussion, argument, disagreement, whatever you want to call it and both walk away with different opinions on what took place.  Sometimes I wish I had a video camera attached to me so I could rewind the footage and see what really took place or better yet show that other person.  Too bad I don't have that luxury so now I just have to agree to disagree and move forward...hurt feelings and all.  

Of course because I am one week or so from having this baby I am very uncomfortable.  I'm not sleeping at night, I mean seriously I am up all night long.  Driving and sitting at my desk is killing my back.  Bryan has really been helping with Kelly the last couple of nights because it's just too hard on me to be on the floor giving her a bath and then picking her up and well just taking care of her is difficult in general...I'm just not moving as fast as my normal self.  I know that all of this will be worth it once the baby is here....but it's getting to that point that is hard. That's all I have for now, not the happiest blog hopefully happier ones will come soon.

The Kellster


Kelly is so much fun right now...I just love-love-love this age.  She loves to be outside, she loves almost all food, she loves to play with her big sis and while she is a little bit of a handful she's such a good baby!  I'm really getting nervous about baby #3 and how it will effect Kelly.  She's still so little that she probably won't remember but dealing with it right now will be hard.  I won't be able to pick her up for a little while after my C-section and I assume my hands will be full a lot of the time with the new baby.  I guess I am just feeling guilty for having a baby and then having another baby.  Of course one day none of it will matter and I'm positive they will love being 1 year apart. I just hope and pray baby #3 will be just as good and easy as Kelly!!

To My Girls

Dear Kaylie & Kelly (and new baby whatever you might be):
 
I promise to always..... 
  • Love you no matter what.
  • Be there for you.
  • Listen to you.
  • Try not to over-react if what you are telling me is not good.
  • Give you hugs and kisses even when you are "too old" for them.
  • Always continue working to be a better mother.
 As time goes on I'm sure I will have more to add to this promise list but this is a pretty good start. 
XOXOXOXOXOXO!

Happy Friday!

Another week has come and gone and really at this point all I can think about is that I am that much closer to having this baby.  My Dr. called on Wed. and said I have to have an ultrasound on Tuesday to check the size of the baby.  If the baby is a certain size she might want to move forward with the c-section on Oct. 17th rather than letting me wait another week until the 24th.  So we will see!!  This weekend we will pretty much just hang out and the weather should be awesome!  That's about all I have for now!  TGIF.

Bad Idea...

I'm starting to think not finding out the sex of this baby in my belly was a bad idea!  What was I thinking??  I hate surprises so why in the world would I want to be surprised to find out what has been growing inside me for 9 months? I guess the real problem for me will be if it is a boy because if its a girl I am good to go.  BUT if it's a boy I think I will really freak out.  I have NOTHING for a boy.  I mean nothing.  No closet full of clothes like I have had for both my girls, no baby boy bedding, no baby boy toys - nada-zilch!  With both of my girls I was mega prepared but if this little baby is a boy we are not ready.  I will have to bring him home in a baby girl car seat. 

I suppose am hoping first and foremost for a healthy baby and then for it to be another girl.  It will make my life a lot easier...BUT based on that thought process it will be a boy.

So What Wed.!

This week I am saying so what to.....

  • I'm seriously running out of maternity clothes...I'm like for real on a rotation but I will NOT break down and buy anything else when I only have 3 weeks left!
  • I'm so disappointed with the RHONJ.  What happened to you women?? Reunion part 1 was disgusting.
  • I started to watch Survivor and I think I could really get into it but I just don't have time in the evenings to keep up with shows anymore. 
  • Kelly Belly is so much fun right now!  I can't wait to be home with her for a while.
  • Kaylie lost another tooth yesterday and I put a bag of candy under her pillow last night instead of $$!!  Hey - she was happy.  :)
  • We are trying to go out of town for Christmas and I'm really excited about taking that time to be with just my husband and kids.  I know it may sound selfish but I want that time for just us.
  • Bryan has been driving his work van home and I want it gone.  It looks so bad in our driveway!
  • I'm not looking forward to the surgery part of having this baby BUT I am starting to get super excited to find out what it is!!!  I'm starting to feel like it could be a boy - and that is freaking me out a little bit.
  • I almost died last week when my favorite blogger stopped by my So What Wed. post!!  She even left a comment.  I felt like a celebrity had been here.  (I know I am a dork!).  http://www.lifeafteridew.com/
What Am I Wearing:
Yep - it's my where's waldo or freddy cougar dress again.  ;)

Busy Bee

So far this week I have been one busy little bee.  My temp replacement started - yea!! SO , yesterday and today was filled with training her.  I also had a Dr.'s appt. and payroll to enter so I have seriously not stopped for 2 full days.  I actually feel like I haven't even slept and as if today is still Monday.  Hopefully, now that payroll is complete and tomorrow is Wed. things will settle down a little.  More to come tomorrow on So What Wed.! 

p.s. we did buy a bassinet and newborn diapers for the new baby this weekend!

Just Keep Swimming

I feel so negative lately.  It's terrible!  I know it's 100% because of my pregnancy but I just feel awful.  I want to be back to my old self (cry-cry-cry)...like right now!!  I was having horrible pains all day today and really wanted to just go home and lay in the bath, but I managed to stick it out at work.  Although, all day I had a horrible attitude, everyone probably wished I had gone home.  Almost all of my co-workers get on my nerves and I don't want them talking to me.  Obviously this doesn't work out so well b/c I am the office manager/travel coordinator and must speak and deal with everyone. 

I'm thinking of the movie, Finding Nemo when Doreen keeps saying, "Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming" I can make it...I know I can...only a 3 more weeks!!!

So What Wed!

This week I am saying so what to:
  • I am tired of being pregnant, tired of working full-time and being pregnant, tired of doing laundry, cooking, cleaning and in general just tired of everything. 
  • I haven't even attempted to do Kaylie's hair all week!  At least she has been brushing it.
  • We are finally hiring a temp to be my replacement while on maternity leave.  I know she's not perfect but whatever it's for 10 weeks! She will do.
  • Bryan was not happy with dinner last night (again) and I really want to strangle this man.  I think there are a lot of working Moms (and some not working for that matter) that don't cook at all.  I come home every single night and cook - so stop complaining!!
  • I seriously have nothing ready for the new baby.  I'm not gonna lie I went into panic-mode the other night b/c at the very least I need to start buying diapers!
  • I can't wait to have a vacation.  We are trying to arrange a trip to the Frio River over Christmas and I'm super excited!! 
What am I wearing on this Wed.??
Uhhhh...I hate what I'm wearing and I'm so ready to never wear anything in my closet that is maternity again!!!

Exactly 1 Month

So if I can make it to Oct. 24th to have this baby then officially today I have 1 month left to be pregnant!  Whooo-hoooo!!  I know some women get all emotional after they have the baby and miss that feeling of being pregnant BUT not me.  I'm like in heaven after I give birth.  It's like I can finally start to get my body back and my life.  Although, I did go through some depression after Kelly but I think it was because of all the change.  Life had been so easy for me for so long.  Kaylie was 7 years old and it was like all of a sudden I was starting from scratch.  I think this time will have it's fair share of struggles because Kelly is still so little but at the same time I'm baby ready because of Kelly.  I have a Dr.'s appt. tomorrow so we'll see if my Dr. suggests having this baby girl (LOL...I think!) on Oct. 17th!!  :)

Friday you couldn't have come fast enough

This week has been a rough one for me.  The stress of my job the new baby coming and all my other "normal" stuff really took a toll on me this week.  I actually cried to my Mom on my drive to get Kelly AND I cried to Bryan on my drive home after I picked up Kelly.  Surprisingly Bryan was very nice and said good things.  Sometimes Bryan has a tendency to just get aggravated with me when I start crying.  It's like he hears my voice shake and all of a sudden he can't handle anything I'm going to say.  Anyway, he didn't do that last night so that was nice.  Also, he took it upon himself to unload the dishwasher AND make dinner for everyone - salad included - just to give me a break.  I was so thankful that he did that b/c another thing that happened in the mist of my breakdown on my drive home was that when I got to the sitters house to get Kelly she was running a fever and looked horrible.  Poor baby it was written all over her face that she was sick.  I immediately gave her Tylenol when we got home.  And she seemed okay throughout the night.  This morning she was smiley and fever free so I took her to the sitter and dragged myself into work.  My job right now is just crazy busy and I'm basically doing two jobs.  One would think people would be like, gee she's 8 almost 9 months pregnant we should probably chill out on this girl but NO instead it's the exact opposite!  Their like...OMG, your pregnant and about to be out for 2 months so we're going to dump as much on you as we possibly can before you leave.  Anyway...with all the stress I'm under I really am starting to think Oct. 24th is too long for me to wait.  I might just go with the Oct. 17th due date.  I see my Dr. on Tuesday so I will discuss with her again but I'm really starting to feel like the sooner I can have this baby the better. 

Wednesday, September 19, 2012

So What! Wednesday

So what if...
  • I want another dog.  Bryan almost died when I told him but I really-really-really want a little dog again.  Is it that bad to have 3 kids and 2 dogs??
  • I am taking off work 2 days before the new baby arrives.  I need those 2 days to get ready!  Although with Kaylie I worked the day my water broke and with Kelly I only took 1 day.
  • I left work early yesterday to get my hair done. 
  • I can't wait to be able to drink again.  I'm not a huge drinker to begin with but not being able to drink for almost 18 months really kind of stinks.
  • I still haven't bought any boy outfits.  I don't think I will either. 
  • I need to buy another crib mattress for the 2nd crib but I'm really moving slow on getting baby ready this time.  It must be b/c it's #3!
  • Did I already say I want another dog?? I really do!  I'm thinking a shih tzu.  :)

Very comfy dress...although I feel a little like where is waldo!

Sunday Dinner

Bryan has really been disappointed and a little sad lately about our dinners.  The truth is I love to cook and Bryan got a little spoiled there for a while.  I was making him home-cooked yummy dinners that most men would love to have.  But let's face it when you have an 8 year old, 1 year old and your pregnant (and work full time) it makes it a little difficult to be standing in the kitchen for hours cooking.  Yesterday was a rainy Sunday so it made for the perfect day for me to whip up one of Bryan's favorite meals.  Of course I learned this from my Mom she always called it "Pigs in a Blanket" although I never understood why b/c I think technically "Pigs in a Blanket" are sausage inside bread...so I call it "Stuffed Cabbage" and Bryan LOVES this meal.  It's time consuming and has the potential to make a mess, hence why I haven't made it in so long.  Anyway...he was a very happy man last night and that made me feel good.  I really love when I can cook something that he will enjoy.  I wish I had more time to do this everyday! 
First you have to boil the cabbage leaves...then you start your meat mixture. 1lb Ground beef, rice and diced tomatoes (I used diced tomatoes with green chilies for a little spice).
Once your cabbage leaves are soft (but not too soft) you drain the pot and pour ice-cold water on them.  Once cool enough to handle you begin stuffing the meat mixture into the leaves.  Stuff, roll, repeat.
Have your pan coated with spaghetti sauce and begin placing the cabbage rolls into the pan.


Once you have the whole pan full pour the remaining spaghetti sauce on top of the cabbage.  Cook in the oven for 1hour at 350. 

I also made a homemade lentil soup with a recipe I stole from a magazine at the Dr.'s office.  I loved it but Bryan's not the biggest fan of lentils so he thought this was just okay.  So Sunday was spent pretty much indoors b/c of the rain and it was perfect.  Happy husband, football on TV, Kaylie and Kelly playing and Mommy cooking.  Oh the good life! 





Friday, September 14, 2012

Yay for Friday!

It's Friday so of course I am in a good mood!  Plus, Kelly belly is finally not sick and back to acting like her normal happy-smiley self.  Kaylie is doing awesome in school so far and having a great attitude so I really can't complain about anything.  Wellllll...almost anything...I am super uncomfortable now and feeling very tired but I only have about 1 month to go so at least an end is in sight.  When I really think about how close it is I start to get nervous.  I am also a little scared about the possibility of it being a boy.  I really don't think it is but then in the back of my mind I know there is a chance.  I'm just not baby boy prepared but I suppose it will all work out no matter what.  Anywhooo...happy Friday! 

p.s. when I got out of the shower this morning...this is what my bed looked like!

If you notice Kaylie's head is on the pillow so yes she once again crawled into bed with us...and Coby get off our bed!!

Sleeping Dog

Kaylie has been crawling into our bed in the middle of the night for a couple weeks now and it's NOT okay.  I'm already big and pregnant and uncomfortable and then to have our 8-year old smashed in between Bryan and I is no good.  She tosses and turns and makes our king-size bed feel like a twin. So last night at dinner (yes, I did cook for everyone despite saying I would no longer) Bryan and I told Kaylie she needed to stay in her bed all night and stop sneaking into our bed.  End-of-conversation.  We also have a 100lb lab that likes to also sneak onto the foot of our bed once we are sound asleep.  Of course as soon as Bryan or I knows he is on the bed we kick him off.  Well around 2am I felt with my feet what I think is Coby- our dog and kick him (pretty hard) off the bed.  When I suddenly hear, "Ahhhhhhh" and lots of crying.  Of course I jumped out of bed and realize I have just kick the crap out of Kaylie!!!!  She was crying her back hurt and her ankle and was basically hysterical.  I was trying to calm her down but at the same time asking her what in the world was she thinking?? She said she didn't want us to know she was in our bed.  OMG!!  Soooo...in the end b/c I felt so bad for kicking her onto the floor I let her (once-again) sleep in between Bryan and I.  So not only was I smashed all night but I also struggled to go back to sleep!  KIDS!!!

So What Wednesday

So what if....
  • I told both Bryan and Kaylie that I will no longer cook either one of them dinner.  I will now only feed Kelly and myself.  If it's not one of them complaining about what I have cooked then it's both of them and I refuse to deal with it any longer!
  • I'm so sick of wearing the same clothes but I really don't want to buy new maternity clothes...I'm so close to the end.
  • I'm considering dying my hair brown just so I don't have to deal with highlighting it while on maternity leave.  Uhhh...I just look so much better blonde! 
  • I'm still giving Kelly belly a bottle early in the morning.  The pedi told me yesterday to stop but it's almost the only time she is a cuddle bunny with me still.  I don't want to lose that time with her.
  • I feel mega guilty about having this next baby when Kelly is still so little. 
  • I told Bryan I'm going to wait to have this baby until Oct. 24th (b/c of work) and he was not pleased he was really pushing for Oct. 17th...I think the guy is ready for me to back to myself!  I can't blame him.
  • Kaylie has been sneaking into our bed in the middle of the night again for the last week and I know when she is doing it but I don't have the energy to say anything.
  • Has anyone seen the Abby and Brittany show on TLC?  This may be really wrong of me but the show is really distrubing and hard for me to watch.

What am I wearing Wednesday??
(it's another recycled outfit but at least I don't have flip-flops on!)

12 Month Check-Up and Shots

This morning Kelly had a her 12 month check up.  I wanted to reschedule the shots because she just started feeling better after 7 days of illness but her Dr. said she was fine to receive the shots.  Poor baby...it was 4 shots in total.  Anyway, I hope she will be okay today.  I worry and worry and worry about my babies!  Her growth percentiles are:
  • Weight - 83.86%
  • Height - 95.16%
  • FOC (head) - 53.76%
So she is looking good and on track.  He did say we need to switch to whole milk and also decrease the amount she is drinking just slightly.  Which makes sense b/c it does seem like she drinks a LOT of milk. 

This afternoon I have a Dr.'s appt. so we'll see how this new baby is doing in my belly!  I am so tired already though and feel like I have just ran a marathon.  Dr.'s office, babysitter, work-work-work, my Dr.'s office and back to work-work-work!  A lot of running around and not a lot of fun.  ;)

Sunday Funday

Sunday was Kelly's birthday party and luckily she was finally starting to feel better.  She still wasn't totally herself b/c it really had been less than 24hrs of her being fever free but at least she didn't have a fever and was starting to feel better.  Her party turned out well and she got lots of great presents and super cute clothes!
 
 Update:  below are some pic's from Nanna!  They turned out really cute!
p.s. you can see a bruise on her forehead...she fell on the coffee table the day before. 




 
 This was her present from Mommy & Daddy...we gave this to her on her actual bday!
 The cupcake - cake I made for her. 
 Kaylie and her cousins ate lunch outside in her tree house.  It was so pretty outside.
 Kelly smiling while we all sang happy birthday to her. 
Kaylie, Blake and Kelly Belly just before she dug into her cake.  She loved it!
