21.5 weeks- 5 months-

Yes folks we are OVER half way there-- hooray!

What I am loving:
my largeness has temporarily plateaued
that she kicks when she is hungry or I've just eaten
that Emmy loves to feel her and then tells her "LOVE YOU"
that I'm in the US and can enjoy pretty much everything
that the holiday season is on it's way!!!
that Jason is always forgetthing that I'm prego...

What I am NOT loving:
that I have to actually go for a walk (instead of that just being a part of the day)
that I am still vomiting a lot
that I sound like an 80 year old smoker~ (I've been calling Penelope "Ursula" because she has stolen my voice)~ my throat is raw from throwing up- waaaa~

You may be asking yourself...

Now that we aren't in Dominica anymore- how are we keeping busy? we are going to Disney... a lot.

we put on lip gloss...a lot of it!

we swim... a lot!

and we sunbathe... a lot! (Daddy joined us for this time and that was GREAT!)

This is Halloween!

We went to Joann Fabrics (love it there!) and found the Halloween section- much to Emmy's delight!

And we tried on EVERY hat they had... here are a few.

She especially loved the kitty-

Sadly- she hated the Angel's halo- hmmmmmm.

The OMORIS!

Our dear friends from Tokyo came to visit us- it was so so fun!

We all went to Epcot together-

They brought Emmy this DARLING Kimono from Japan and made me yakisoba (my favorite) and brought us Japanese candy and some very special presents- Emmy loved them and loved their suitcase almost as much :)

It was an obsession...

The girlies!

Masiyo and Emmy- they were so cute together.

Emmy also loved Atsushi (A-tu-she) and kept calling him "a tu theee" adorable!

Emmy even stayed for the fireworks with Papa and after being nervous about the first boom- loved them and declared them all to be "yellow"- of course she did!

I promise~ my last b day post ;)

Emmy enjoyed my birthday- maybe more than I did!

For the "real" date- J took a break from studying and we split a Cheesecake Factory meal- ahhhh! delish and look- Happy Birthday to me!
