I've been looking forward to this for 6 months

I'm leaving on Monday for a cruise for 5 days with Greg. No kids. We're celebrating our 9 year anniversary on Wednesday.

Things I am looking forward to:
*Being able to read a book on the airplane with no interruptions
*Sleeping in, taking a nap, staying up late
*Eating good food and not cooking it
*Being served my food and not serving it
*Warm weather
*Peace and quiet
*Being with my husband without kids, being able to talk and not get interrupted

It's going to be a great week folks. Try to not to be too jealous.

Cleaning girl

A conversation with Reagan:

Me: It's time for bed
Reagan: Mom, I just need to clean the bathtub before I go to bed
Me: Um, okay

The next day

Me: Reagan what are you doing? It's time for bed.
No answer, I enter the bathroom and find her cleaning the toilet. She is embarrassed that I find her.
Me: What are you doing, bud?
Reagan: I'm cleaning the toilet.
Me: It's time for bed
Reagan: Mom I just need to clean the bathtub before I go to bed
Me: You just cleaned it last night
Reagan: But Mom, it's so dirty I need to clean it again
Me: Um, okay but hurry up

TLC=Great shows

Has anyone else watched the show I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant? It sounds so weird but it is so fascinating to me. It is about women who seriously go the whole 9 months without knowing they are prego. Then they go into labor and can't figure out what is happening.
"No, I'm not pregnant"
"Yes you are, and you're crowning"
"WHAT?!?!"
"Here's your baby"
So crazy. I can kind of understand when it is a really overweight person and the baby is just kind of hidden. But last week was a girl that was 100 pounds. At the end of her pregnancy she weighed 110. But still, how do you not have a baby bump or something that would tip you off?
At the end of my pregnancies (or even by about 7 months) I seriously look like I have a basketball under my shirt. I don't think I could ever go even 5 months without figuring it out.
