    Funny thing, it wasn't even HER doctor. Her doctor was away on vacation.

    Yeah, and my Mom felt fine. She hadn't noticed any changes or felt off or anything. Of course it was in the era of no cell phones, so my Dad comes back to pick my Mom up like an hour later and they are like yeah, you're actually going to have this baby today/ tomorrow. That is crazy to think of where you could have been had you not checked yourself in to the hospital. You were meant to do that, not be on the plane or in AZ or wherever.

    For those of us who get lovely winter weather (YUP, I am asking about the weather!), how done are you with this winter? For those of us out in the GTA in Ontario, we haven't had a bad winter in a couple of years. This one has exhausted me. I am so ready for it to be done, to see flowers blooming, have sunny skies longer than an afternoon, and for my poor car to stop looking so dirty. I want heat, sunshine, and thunderstorms that summer brings!

    I know! I'm going to sit on it for a few months, see how I feel about "promoting" my now only bridesmaid to Matron of Honour. Elisha will and always be my first and only choice for Maid of Honour, but Kandis just might fit the bill for Matron (it also helps that she lives only 45 minutes away, instead of Elisha's 3 provinces away.... and she just got married in the Bahama's this past August, so her brain is still set to wedding planning). Your absolutely right, I may find someone else to be my bridesmaid. But I am completely fine with just having the one person be there, and then having a "flat" Elisha there, either through technology (read: Skype), or through a picture/ whatnot. I know things could change for Elisha too, but that would make me more sad, if she could suddenly come and it was because something happened with her job.

    I was born premature (6 weeks). My mom went in for a check up and they ended up doing an emergency c-section because my heart rate was minimal, and I had dropped weight. When they got me out, my mom said that the edges of the amniotic sac had started to go black. The doctor was certain had my mom not come in that day, I probably wouldn't have survived the night. I was 2 lbs, 15 oz. My lungs weren't completely developed, and I had pneumonia in the hospital. Since then, as a child when I got a cold, I tended to get over it fairly fast. But now, every single time I get a cold, I get bronchitis and it lasts and lasts and lasts. I also had a lazy right eye. I had surgery when I was two, to tighten the muscle. For the most part, it tends to be okay and no one can tell. When I'm really tired though, it tends to wander. Or, when I am super energized and have a lot of caffeine in my system, it sometimes tightens too much and my eye pulls in a bit. I seriously hate it and am very self conscious about it. But for the most part, people don't notice, or don't comment about it.

    Yeah, it's sitting heavy with me today. But it is what it is, and she still want's to be involved in everything she can be leading up to the day. Thanks love. I know she will be- she want's me to somehow find a way to skype the whole day, so she can be there at least online haha. Reminds me of that commercial about the girl getting married and her dad being on the computer.
  13. Jenny2014
    Yeah, that looks really nice

    Ohhh emotions are on high today. Sitting here, crying at work, over the beauty of these pictures. You are so blessed. Yup, after reading through the rest of the pages, seeing everything you have been through Cherina, and you as well Ann, yup, time to go to the washroom and take a moment. The strength you ladies (and your children) have is just incredible.

    Well, in updated news, I don't need to worry about colours for two people. My best friend and MOH told me yesterday she won't be able to make it to my wedding because it was going to cost her so much money. She would have just been made a permanent teacher (finally), so it wouldn't look good for her to leave the second week into the school year. Plus, they arent going to let her use all her personal days for it, so she would be out a week's pay, plus having to pay for a substitute teacher for a week, and then paying for the trip in and of itself. So my logical, understanding, brain- side of me completely and totally understands. I would never, ever, ever ask her to be out nearly $6000 for my wedding. Or potentially put her job, that she has worked so hard to get to, at risk. But the emotional, this is my best friend, this is my person (like Christina and Meredith from Grey's are to each other) side of me is crushed. I just don't see how this beautiful, wonderful day will be as beautiful and wonderful without her there. I'm just sad, but I do get it and I'm not upset with her at all. It just is life, but it makes me sad.

    Agreed. I see now that I could pick out a couple of colours that would work, just to give some guidance.

    Just gorgeous! You look soooo much better than the model, by 100%! Stunning!

    I am sure it was the best week of your lives! You look so happy in your picture! I have always loved, loved, loved blue orchids. I would love, LOVE to have a full bouquet of blue orchids, but I know that would cost me my first child and grandchild, so I leaning more towards blue orchids and calla lily's. Simple, with just the pop of colour. And I will have a flower in my hair as well. Oh I know time will fly by! We have already been engaged 5 months. How, I don't have a clue. But it's getting down to the serious okay we have to send out STD's, put our deposit down. Heck, we have to finalize our guest list first off. Ugh. Yeah. hahaha. I know I will be plenty, plenty busy.

    Your congrats was completely and well deserved! That was such a huge jump! I think this week I am up too- AF is really messing with me this round. I like the weight loss as a percentage too! The end percentage will be truly incredible, to see how much was lost! That is amazing! 102 pound loss! You must have felt incredible! I think despite the fact that you are back up, you know you can lose the weight. You did it before. I hear you on the heartbroken and demoralized aspect- knowing you once lost all that weight and felt happy, and now your back up to where you are miserable, it isn't a good feeling. However, you had a person growing inside you! That is what is amazingly incredible. I could be able to find some justification for me weight, had I ever been pregnant and had a kid. I know and understand putting weight on from there. Mine is pure gluttony and laziness, no child did this to me. I did this to me, and instead of losing, all I seem to do is put it on. But enough is enough! Together we will all motivate each other to keep on losing, even when the going gets tough!!!!

    Okay good! Your wedding looked stunning! Oh they have been in other weddings, and one of them just got married herself in August. Oh they definitely have a much better fashion sense then me, hence why I wouldn't ever want to tell someone what to wear hahaha. They both seem to want to base their dress off of the flowers I have chosen. However, I was talking with Kandis (bridesmaid) and she said "ooohhhh, grey would look nice too...." so she seems to have started to embrace the fact that she can choose whatever she wants. Elisha (MOH) knows it is still very far away and doesn't seem to be that keen on looking for a dress now (which I completely understand). I showed her the dress Kandis had found that she liked, but I knew it wasn't the style/type of dress she would ever consider wearing. They aren't friends, unfortunately. They have met a couple of times throughout the years and hung out in a large group situation during University. They both seem to be correlating anyways- just with me as the go between. Oh well, that is fine with me. I just want them to be happy, comfortable and to have a good time. I will keep you updated- though I am sure it will be more like in a year haha. I cannot believe I still have soooooo long to wait!
