The Supense is Killing Me...

It is starting to look Red & Green around here...
I only use Red & Green .
 
 
 
But I have to tell you the truth...
My mind is racing with Pink & Blue!
 
 
 
Girl or boy?
The suspense is killing me!!!!
I don't even have a boy name picked yet!
 
One of the biggest joys of this pregnancy is all the close friends that have been due right around me.
 
Angie, Alysa & Ashley!
 
Angie is my cousin & BFF.
The forever part is literal. 
We were born 2 months apart & have been close ever since.
 
 
She's the fun cousin who can talk me into all her adventurous ideas.
She happily includes me even if I am the conservative type :) 
She's made my life much more exciting!
 
And now look what we are doing together:
 
 
 
Pretty cool huh?
 
After sharing our lives together,
it just seemed perfect to share our due date!
 
 
Oooooo... I can't wait to meet our babes!
 
I found one way to mix some green & red with my baby:
 
Look at what I ordered from my friend's Etsy store!
 
For Roo
long sleeved tee
 
For Baby
long sleeved onsie
 
 
Christmas is loaded with fun things this year!
What color is your Christmas?

Angie's Watermelon

So, since I introduced you to my cousin Angie
I thought I would share one of her ideas with you.
You can't know me with out knowing Angie.
Born about 2 months before me she is my DOUBLE cousin. 
My mom & her Dad are siblings
AND my Dad & her mom are sibling.
Got that?

We played together as children,
best friends as teens,
graduated together,
ran & rollerbladed MANY MANY miles together,
were in each other's weddings,
and we still hang :)

She ALWAYS has fun in store for me.
I need her.

Last Summer, to the 4th of July Party she brought watermelon.
FROZEN WATERMELON!

It was sooo refreshing!


Just cut watermelon into popsicle shapes,
slip it onto a popsicle or lollipop stick,
wrap in tin foil,
& a few hours later you will have the perfect treat!



It took about 15 frames to get a good
"eating watermelon" pic :)
This one cracks me up.

I let it sit for a few minutes before I enjoy it.

Also if your watermelon is on the cusp of old age,
and you can't eat another bite before it goes bad...

...I use my melon baller and put single serving portions into plastic ziplocs, pop them in the freezer and then pull them out to eat instead of ice cream.

Let me know if you try it!
Thanks Ang!
