Booth Review

Sometimes in a really close football game, a booth review can make or break a team.

Today Audri and I needed a booth review. This morning we went to Waffle House for breakfast, not my favorite place but I didn't feel like cooking so I forefited my right. When we got to the WH we waited patiently for a booth- not a special booth but your average WH booth. I made the move to the first available booth, and Audri (in her full 7 months of pregnancy followed closely behind. When she sat down we realized that not only could get stuck but she probably would. Not because of the excess syrup that covered our bench- but because of the growth of the belly. I am thankful because this proves to be the last time we will have to eat at WH until Darcy is 8 years old (must give time for her immune system to develop before eating there, they got a B on their health report).

Audri has also begun to really struggle with numbers- she just asked if i wanted to watch 90 minutes with katie couric, i said no- but i'd love to wach 60 minutes (A-Rod is on tonight), she also started making some really odd faces. Oh pregnancy, what other suprises do you have for us.

Baby's Room

I forgot I had not even posted any pictures of new baby's room. My mom picked this design out; she says we are going for "whimsy not gaudy". We finally ordered the baby bed today too. So it should be here before the end of the month. We have to go pick up the rest of the furniture for the room soon. As soon as all the furniture is in place I will posts some more pictures.

Getting ready...

Well, we are getting closer to "D" Day every day. Only 9 1/2 weeks to go. This is assuming I am not overdue...like the running track record in my family (7-10 days overdue). But I really can't complain. The Lord has blessed me with an amazing pregnancy. Today I met with the anesthesiologist to talk about the option of an epidural. I am just not sold on the idea right now. I went thru the consult just in case when the day comes I decide I want one. But after hearing "all" the facts I am just not convinced. I guess we will see in a few weeks.

Side note: I realized after I our trip to Orlando that I am more afraid of flying than I am of giving birth. I really hate to fly because it seems so unnatural. I told Corey this the other day and now I think he thinks I am nuts. I didn't always have a problem flying but over the years my dislike of flying has gotten progressively worse. Don't get me wrong I do fly from time to time...but not because I enjoy it. Giving birth to a child - they have been doing this for thousands of years. It is much more natural than sitting in an aluminum bullet that flys thru the air at 30,000 feet!

This post is for Marcie, the newly engaged

Where it all happened:

Vacation Extravaganza

Yes Corey and I and my immediate family took a vacation for 5 days. This might not sound like a big deal but let me tell you this was a HUGE deal. The last time we took a vacation my sister Marcie was 8 months old. My 2 youngest siblings were not even born yet! The last family vacation was 21 years ago. Just so happens we went to the same place as last time, Disney World. I have some very exciting photos to follow.

And might I add that I am 6 1/2 months pregnant! I think I did pretty good considering. My FEET are so happy to be home and sitting still at my desk once again.
