Best friends, baby gifts, and emotions

Just a little warning, this is a totally random post!

I'm not sure if I have mentioned this but I have the bestest best friend EVER.  Her name is Sarah and we have been friends since 8th grade.  Since I have been totally nesting and wanting to clean out everything in my house, she volunteered to come over and help me!  There are many reasons I love her BUT one of the main ones is for her organizing skills and her craftiness.  So, she helped me clean out my craft closet today.  She pretty much did everything...I just told her what to do!  This is what the closet looked like before....

We took everything out of the closet and put it on the floor in the spare bedroom.  Then we organized everything into plastic tubs and put it all back.  Here is the after pic...

I had to force myself not to use my label maker and label all the tubs...since I can see what is in them!

If you are wondering what all the junk is here is a small list :)

-scrapbook paper

-scrapbook supplies

-markers

-crayons

-fall decorations

-spray paint

-regular paint

-paint brushes

-candles

-candle holders

You get the idea right???

Anyway, so happy to have this done and can't wait to move on to the next project!  I am in a holding pattern on baby girl's room until the shelves are installed so I am working on everything else I guess.  

The baby gifts are starting to arrive.  Lonnie came home from work this week with this sweet little white blanket that a lady that works for him made our for our little princess.

Quick backstory.  There is a girl that I went to x-ray school with but lost touch with her after we graduated (2004).  Last year one of my husband's partners was telling me about a girl who was working at another hospital they cover who was having problems with infertility.  He asked me if it was ok to give her my email address so she could ask me questions since I was very knowledgable (unfortunately).  It turned out to be her.  So we have been talking and I told her everything I knew about everything....at that point we were on a break before starting IVF #3.  She has had 2 ectopic pregnancies so both tubes removed...only IVF for her. We will call her A here because I am not sure she would want all that announced to the world!  

My husband came home from work yesterday with another gift and it was from her.  She made this blanket and this adorable sock monkey!

Let's all cross our fingers for her and send A some baby vibes.  She has been saving up for IVF for a while and they are about to get started.  She has been on Lupron and about to start stimming.  I really hope this works for her...she deserves it so much!

This brings me to my last topic.  I am an emotional crazy person.  I cried when I opened both of these gifts.  I cry when I see commercials on tv..especially the Pampers one.  I cried when I realized I could no longer see my vagina the other day...a happy cry, of course, but going to have to figure something out on that front.  I cried when my husband killed the wasps on our dock the other day...what if that was a mommy wasp????

I will leave you with this....

You know you are way too emotional when you cry every time you see roadkill...

again that could have been a momma possum???  TEAR.....
