The day that changed or will change my sister's life forever!

Today, my sister found out that she is expecting twins....Very exiting to say the least, but as a new mom to a wonderful 8 week old, today I must say, her life changed forever. She is about to be on the biggest ride of her life, from being pregnant WITH TWINS, to birthing them....Do any of us know what we are getting ourselves into when we get pregnant?? Quick change....just got off with the sister and she is freaking out about having the two boodles in her belly...wants nothing more than to freak out over a glass or bottle of wine, to which i said, "So sorry honey, welcome to the next nine months- or in my case, at least until week 13 and then i imbibed a bit (during a trip to Miami, but that is another story entirely). So to sister--welcome to the rest of your life, it is going to be wonderful, exhilarating, not to mention scary as hell, but we will ride this one out together- I love you!

What is the dream?

You may ask, "What is livingthedream?". To be honest, it is a quote that I have stolen and used often from one of my sisters...I am one of three and the youngest. The phrase is most often used like this:

Me: "Sister, how is your day at the Conservative Small Upstate University?'
to which her reply is:

"oh, you know, LIVINGTHEDREAM"

or from one new mom to the other;

Me: "New Mom: How was your night/morning?"
to which her reply is:

"oh you know, LIVINGTHEDREAM"

So, LIVINGTHEDREAM, can be sarcastic in nature, true to what you feel, or just a lazy answer when you do not want to go into the nitty gritty deatails of your otherwise kind of boring day. So with this blog, I hope to give an insite to my life and all the dreams that come into play day in and day out.
Enjoy!
