three years ago today

Three years ago today it was the day before my due date. I decided to whip up a delectable castor oil orange juice smoothie for myself in the hopes it would encourage the baby to get a move on. You know the saying: "Make like a baby and head out." Well, it worked like a charm. At 8 pm I was sitting on my yoga ball eating pizza and watching Super Nanny. An hour later I thought, Well, this is the real deal. Time to go. By 10 pm we were at the hospital and 2 hours later Abby was born! It was a very productive day indeed.

Tomorrow we're hosting her 3rd birthday party and instead of a castor oil cocktail I'll be whipping up a raspberry ice cream cake and a chocolate marshmallow layer cake.

Happy Birthday Abby!
