Ellie Macmillan

What a night. Not... how I pictured this at all, but, I suppose things could have gone a lot worse. He wasn't due for a couple more weeks but I guess with all the excitement, he wanted to check things out early. Hopefully, he won't always be so adventuruous. I don't know if I could take it.

I am thoroughly exhausted and it seems as if the whole clan is trying to cram into the room. At least everyone is.... trying to let me get some sleep. I think. Oh well, I'll sleep later.

Instead, I'd like to ... somewhat formally announce the birth of my son:

Skylar Justin Rhys Macmillan

( and here's a picture of daddy and his little boy. )

Oh my. Uh. I think. Yes. It's coming. I. Holy shit. I think that stupid firew-IT DOESN'T MATTER! Look, I'll be at St. Mungo's with Justin if anyone needs us.

Thank you to everyone who showed up to my surprise shower! I loved it! Izzy, Taylor, it was beautiful... thank you so much! I'm glad I didn't have that many finals as I've been helping mum and dad put together a few of the presents (IE: pointing out to dad that he put together the high chair backward).

Thank you so much to all.

I can't wait to put some of these outfits on little!Izzy or little!Taylor Rhys.

I'm glad, however, that his giant bear was picked up by dad that night. I ... have no idea where I'm going to put that. I suppose I could transfigure it into a bed? Maybe? It didn't have a tag attached, so um, if it's yours, please let me know?

Just a few more weeks until we finally have another Macmillan!

I can't believe how forgetful I'm getting. Not only did I not hand in an assignment... I cannot find any record of it anywhere in my notes for the past week. My notes are so disorganized, I ... I can't even begin to figure out what I was thinking during class. There are things just... entirely missing. My notes are impeccable.

I'm getting such a headache now. I can't deal with this. I don't even want to know what finals are going to be like if my brain is already like this. I'm never going to graduate.

This has been an... interesting Easter, that's for sure. How many people can say they helped to set up a little egg hunt for their brother's pet monkey? He sure seemed like he had fun... right up until Otto got into the sugar too. It was so cute watching Otto chase Marvin around the house in his furry form, with Smokey right beside him. I don't think mum thought it was so cute when they knocked over... just about everything though. Thank god for cleaning spells. At least the table wasn't set with dinner.

25 Weeks now. Supposedly, according to this baby book, I'm supposed to start picking out a name. So, I'm going to start on a list for boy names and a list for girl names. I refuse to know what the gender is just yet. Part of me does want to know, but, I think I might actually like being surprised this time.

That said, if anyone has any suggestions I am more than willing to listen. If there are any really outlandish suggestions, Rhys... might I remind everyone that I am hormonal? Never know what I might do now.

I know you're busy, but, I need to talk to you. And no, don't come home, it's okay. It's not... that dire or anything I just... I don't know.

Rhys, Ethan, I give you permission to beat Julian's face in. I can't believe him sometimes! He sent me a Valentine consisting of sexy underwear and an invitation to wear it at his dorm. Did he really think that would work? I mean first of all, since when have I ever done anything like that and it wasn't for... And second! He knows I'm pregnant! That pig!

Well break was a bit crazy but it was... good. I think. Glad to be back though. A new semester is just what I needed. A clean slate. I'm so close to being done, I can taste it.

I think this will be the motto for this semester:
"Good luck is another name for tenacity of purpose." Ralph Waldo Emerson

“My dear dear lord,
The purest treasure mortal times afford
Is spotless reputation—that away,
Men are but gilded loam, or painted clay.
A jewel in a ten-times barr'd-up chest
Is a bold spirit in a loyal breast”

Richard The Second Act 1, scene 1, 176–181

To anyone who may have heard Julian, please ignore tha rantings and ravings of a mad man.

It's getting so cold lately. I wonder when the snow will start. I always love seeing the first snowflakes of winter.

FUCK. This... How could I... Oh shit she was right. She was right. I can't believe it. Oh god...What am I going to do? What's going to happen when everyone finds out? It's not an if, it's a when. I know my family. God why did I ever...




Shit.

Bad decisions always look worse in the morning. What was I thinking...

Ryhs, I've reconsidered letting you beat Julian's face in. Feel free to bring E and the rest of your brothers in to join in the fun..

Count the garden by the flowers, never by the leaves that fall. Count your life with smiles and not the tears that roll. ~Author Unknown

I rather like this quote. However, I also like this one as well.

Living well is the best revenge. ~George Herbert

Let's just hope for Julian's sake he doesn't do anything... stupid. Would be a real shame if I had to lock him up.

Sometimes I hate getting owls. This was certainly not the news I was hoping for. I suppose all things must end. In hindsight, I really should have seen this coming. I can't believe I... well it doesn't matter now does it?

I can't wait for the semester to start. I need a good distraction. NO Sylvia, that doesn't mean I need a prank so don't even think of going there. Please just... let it go for now. You can start targeting me twice as much when we start back at school, how does that sound? Who am I kidding? She won't listen...

In other news, I'm all dressed up with no where to go. How pathetic am I?
