Best Part of the Day-
I am an Auntie!!! Wyatt Mateo was born in Chicago this morning via C-section. He is a doll--and looks to be a perfect combo kid. Boys born on 12/20 are pretty cool. (Fun fact: Not only do they share a birthday, Wyatt has the same birth weight as Liam.) All parties are doing well!! Yippee!!!

I delivered Scarlet to my mom and dad's for an overnight so I could rest--though I also had to venture out to work and other places...Scarlet loves being with them. When I told S. I would pick her up the following morning she replied, "How 'bout the afternoon? We have a lot of stuff to do." This respite allowed me to take a nap from 1p-4p and felt amazingly refreshed afterward. Sleep does a body good.

Worst Part of the Day-
I awoke at 3am and felt queasy. The vomiting for this mama began around 5am. Fun, fun times. S. was rearing to go at 6-ish this morn and I told her I would put in a movie for her whle I rested--needed to lie still. 20 mintues later she came upstairs and proudly said, "Look Mom!" She unveiled her creation: royal blue face paint ALL over her face with heavy black eyeliner, marscara and ruby red lips. (You are your father's daughter.) OMG. That's when I knew I had to call the g-parents in as back-up. I could not handle...

Happy 2nd Birthday to my one and only BOY! (I will see you tomorrow--cake 'n presents will be had!!)
