As usual Brian and I were up at 6:30, getting him ready for work.  I was just climbing back into bed at 7 (Saturday!) and Emma woke up.  We snuggled for 20 minutes and I fondly entertained the notion that I was going to get to go back to sleep.  But then Emma wanted oatmeal. Because she’s hungry.  Because she hadn’t eaten in DAYS! DAYS! (Because we starve her or something?)

So I told her that I would get up in 9 minutes. So she got up to watch a movie and play with her beloved Polly Pockets.

“THUMP”

“What the hell was that?  Did something fall out of a cupboard?  Pans shift?  What did she do that made that huge of a noise?” My inner dialoge is not terribly creative at 7:22 AM.

“MOM MY TV FELL OVER!”
Well, it sure as hell did. The thing is on a low dresser- and she’d pulled both drawers out.  The entire thing had toppled over!

Emma is okay, not sure how she managed to NOT have it hit her. I’ve fixed it, pulled it forward so the screen is mid dresser,  so hopefully it won’t do that again.  I don’t know if the TV will work though.  Its got some interesting colors going on.

You should REALLY read this!

I’m going unprivate on my blog for the month of November! WOOT!
ITS:

I’d just like to say that Kung Fu Panda is HILARIOUS!
Definitely worth seeing
I didn’t stop laughing once

Of all the things about planning a wedding, the wedding dress seems to be the most time consuming- taking anywhere from 3-5 months after you order it to actually GET it.
SOOOO
Even though we don’t have a date, and I haven’t officially been asked yet, I went wedding dress shopping today and I found THE ONE. No. I did not order it. YET.
I tried on close to 10 dresses. All of them were lovely. Most of them were lovely on, with the exception of the tea length dresses I tried.
Any way, I found 3 that were lovely.
So the third runner up is called “Anastasia” by Maggie Sottero. And she is LOVELY. I NEVER thought I’d go for a dress that was beaded but I felt GOOD in this dress.
The 2nd runner up is called “Selena” also by Maggie Sottero. My boobs had never looked better.
I tried both dresses in a size 6 (they only carry one dress in each size cause they are little) and they fit perfectly.
The final choice and ultimate winner is called “Vivian” by Sophia Tolli. It was the dress I’ve had posted on my fridge to help me think about losing weight. The two dresses by Maggie had looked so good that I didn’t think I’d go for this one- it was the wrong size and didn’t look as good on me. But when my sister Brekke stepped up behind me and pulled the dress tight in all the right places it was apparent that it was meant for me

I took one illicit picture, until you’ve purchased a gown you are not supposed to take pictures
I’m going to go with this dress in gold, I think.
