Five Faves!

Joining Hallie for the first time in 5 Favorites!

The reason I haven't been blogging in over 3 weeks is because I've been sick sick.  I mean more than sick.  Cough/Flu/Pneumonia sick so badly that I didn't sleep more than two hours at a time over a ten day period and then spent three days in the hospital mid April to get some relief!  And the kicker is... I still have to lay low so pneumonia doesn't creep back up!  

And with about 7 weeks til we meet our little puff, there's too much to do to be on "modified" bed rest!

But I'm glad to be back both reading and posting blogs after the hiatus.  

Which leads me to my favorites -

1.) Blogging this year - it has really been such a great way to "journal" about what's going on in Casa Williams and I'm so glad to be in the blogosphere reading about such wonderful women and their family adventures.

2.) Being hospitalized.  Yes, I know, a weird favorite, but after getting to the hospital being hooked up to everything and getting meds and having this lil bug monitored, I FINALLY had SOME relief after being sick for so long!

Of course I'm still not 100% or back to normal, but just knowing that the antibiotics and breathing treatments were helping just lifted my heart while confined to the hospital bed!  haha

Someone came to visit me with her first happy meal in tow! 

On the hospital bed eating ketchup! 

Bill dressed her - hence the cute strawberry hair clip! 

3.) Babies in preppy clothes.  Cute?  Think so! 

Check me out, guys (shirt and skirt from Nana)

It's not easy pulling off this much preppy pink

4.) Boston: One. of. the. best. cities. in. the. world.  Period.  

I loved getting to know Boston for 5 years and loved spending many weekends with my fun girls in this city.  I am so impressed by the spirit and strength this historic place has displayed this past week.  Just AWESOME.
