Pop Tarts & Cheerios: You kept me from throwing up hundreds of times those first few months, I felt like a toddler eating dry cheerios but I didn't really care!
The 12 Pack: For listening to me hourly. No girl is luckier than I. You're the best friends ever. Thanks for keeping me calm, sane and laughing.
My Blanket: Your the most comfy blanket ever and you've made bedrest tolerable (thanks mom).
Augusta Lunch Establishments: I couldn't shop or frolic around town but I could manage to go to lunch with friends for many months. Thanks for giving me a reason to get out of the house. A special thanks to the restaurants with movable tables so I could give myself an extra few inches as I grew.
Facebook: for providing stupid quizzes that amused me for hours. Thanks to all the friends who filled them out just to amuse me, especially Mitch....because I know men don't love reflecting upon the color crayon that best represents them. Facebook is the best way for me to chat with high school, college and local friends at the same time!
The Octomom: You're a train wreck & you're a loon. Thank you for amusing me with endless hours of nutty interviews. I pray you bring home your babies, shut off the cameras and get your act together you nutty chick.
Columbia County Baseball: Thank you for your impeccable timing. I figured baseball season would start the WEEK I give birth and you came through for us. What a busy week this will be. FOUR practices AND deliver a couple babies...we can do it!!
New York City: For it's over stimulating environment which helped distract Eric and I when we shockingly discovered we were pregnant there. Special thanks for Wicked, The Yankees & Grand Central Station. That Thursday afternoon was not without excitement.
My Big Red Tray: I was served dozens of meals on my great red tray and it made eating in bed easy and pretty.
Jen: My best friend since I was 8! Still the greatest, thanks for all the calls, all the packages and all the love.
Bunko Babes: It's so important to have a group of women to lean on & count on...thank you for being that group to me in Augusta. I love each of you & your wine, I'm looking forward to drinking with you again!!
Karen, the needle person at my Dr's office: One of the many divine interventions I've had this year. IF I must be around needles, she's the girl to be holding them.
Pam, my business partner: You started a business with a busy body and ended up being in business with a chick on bed rest! Thanks for your patience! I'll be back to my over achieving ways soon!
My Neighbors: For amusing my kids & taking them places! Especially Julie & Kris!
My Twin Mom Friends: Even though I'm a twin, I need lots of advice on bringing home 2 babes. Thank you for your wisdom...I'll be calling or emailing when they're not sleeping through the night!
Lee: The funniest and best counselor a friend could ask for. Thanks for the diversions when needed and the lecturing when called for. You're right, this year has been a miracle. I owe you more atomic fireballs.
My Laptop & Cellphone: Ha. My 2 favorite things. How do people survive on bed rest without a laptop? My cell allowed me to call mom on the home phone every time I needed company.....or food.
Comedy Central and E: These ridiculous channels provided me with great background noise from midnight to 3am when I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
Glenn Beck: My favorite news guy. He actually ensured I didn't lose too many brain cells these past 9 months.
That Black Long Dress I Magically Found At Target With Gwenn: You're the only maternity item that still fits me. I love you. I'm unsure what I would be wearing now if I didn't have you?
My Weekly Television Shows: You helped pass the hours, you know who you are: Greys, Brothers and Sisters, Desperate Housewives, Private Practice, Ghost Whisperer.
Gwenn, Shelley, Sheri & Debby: My favorite Augusta girls who are always there for lunch or tears or advice or motivation. Only real friends can give you "nipple therapy" at lunch. Love you all.
My St Teresa Church Family: Your prayers and love were (are) much needed. I love our church & adore everyone who has supported our family this year and in years past.
Gwenn: I could have never made it through my fall obligations without you. Thank you for taking over my life and not bopping me on the head for being so over extended.
My Air Conditioner: I've never needed you more. I think I would have been committed if I had not had you to make my life manageable. My ceiling fan deserves a thank you as well.
AKPsi Friends: We're still supporting each other beyond tests and hangovers. You know I adore you all. Heather, I'm counting on you showing up in the waiting room when I give birth!
Renee and Andy: You gave our babies a cousin her age, what a gift!
Mom & Dad: you moved in to take on the fun jobs...dinner, cleaning, shopping, nurturing the kids and everything else that I should have been doing. You're the best parents ever, I'm not sure how we would have survived without you. You gave up your life for us and I promise we'll do the same for you when you're old and drooling! Love you!
Huana: Weekly visits to get us back on track and to amuse the kiddos is so helpful! I hate to sound like Hillary, but it does take a village!
Kiersten: The best twin ever. You became my personal shopper and decorator. You've been a huge source of amusement during this pregnancy but you amuse me when I'm not pregnant so that's no surprise. The twins will love you just as much as the rest of the world.
Kate and Derrick: for being the most flexible kids ever, our lives totally changed and you just smiled since we could do nothing else. Thank you for all the water (with ice, straw, lemon) you brought me & for being so excited to see your new sisters. No mommy could be luckier and these little babies are the luckiest babies ever.
Eric: You covered me in lotion every night & pulled me up 1,000 times & told me I still look beautiful even though I think you're lying. You're the best man and husband a girl could ever wish for. Thanks for giving up all your free time this year for us. I'll make sure you can golf again soon. I can't wait to see you with our four children, that's a crazy thought, it's what we always wanted! I love you most.
God: In delaying these 2 little gifts you made us truly realize how blessed we are. Thank you for entrusting us with these miracles!!
