Heading off to my doctor's appointment today alone without the drama of the little one accompanying me. And knowing that while I was gone, she was in the great care of her Daddy. I knew I would be missed as she cried while I backed out of the garage, but also knew she'd be okay and that I'd be returning very shortly for kisses and hugs.
Low Point:
Getting home and having my husband chuckle as he told me she cried with arms held out wide, grasping at the air, for me to come back for her... until he said, "Here, let's eat some chocolate!" And without a second's pause of time, she turned those air grasping arms and tear filled eyes into a grandiose Queen's wave of ~*~GOODBYE~*~ as the first morsel of chocolate touched her tongue. So I guess I don't quite compare to the beauty that is chocolate.
The doctor's appointment went well. My blood pressure was 100 over 60 and the baby's heart rate was 144. I do have to go back in two weeks though. And, per doctor's orders, I do have to be off my feet as much as I can be. But with an 18 month old, who's he kidding anyways???

You've been ousted for chocolate.
Good report from the MD! But yeah, like you can stay off your feet with a young un...
M~
How quickly the young oust the old for little pleasures. I have a friend who is 32 this year that would probably still oust his mom for chocolate so hopefully yours will outgrow it before she's 30.
Just like my hubby - chocolate wins out over everything. Except for maybe lasagna.
Good luck with figuring all that out. I know doctors tell you what you need to do for the sake of your health and the baby's health, but if only they'd provide the solution as well.
Ha--the power of chocolate. So that's when it begins??
I used to be able to bribe my lil sis all the time with chocolate.
