How Piglet became Piglet...

Well, technically Piglet became Piglet because of A.A. Milne. And my Piglet became Piglet because, well, when a mommy and a daddy love each other very much.... But Piglet got named Piglet because of my mom.  And it all started back when we were kids...

...We called my brother, of the bouncy energetic personality, Tigger. My sister, of the morose, poor me personality, Eeyore.  My dad and I, fix-it people, were Christopher Robin. And my lovable sweet mom was Pooh. Fast forward many years to when Mom and I were shopping during our Christmas visit.  We were at Walmart and she told me I had to see this little pillow, because it reminded her of us.



"Oh", I said, "there's Miah, Erika, Mom, and...Piglet?"

"Yeah," she said. "Piglet is Baby Vines!" I thought it was an adorable idea, so when we got home we told everyone our little story.

And that is how Piglet became Piglet.

By the way, I know your due date isn't May 19th, but your "My pregnancy" at the bottom of your page says it is... I think it's trying to tell us something... I think Piglet will be born on MY b-day!!! hehe

So did you buy the pillow? I think you should!

No, I didn't buy the pillow. I might though! I'm not sure why that ticker says I'm due May 19th. It is correct on how far along I am though--19 weeks and 3 days today.
