WAY TOO MUCH TO CATCH UP!!!

Ugh, I am such a slacker. I have missed posting about Michelle's birthday and a bunch more. But for right now I only have a minute to catch you fine people up on some stuff.

First of all, everyone is doing great. I think better then before, which I didn't think possible!

Everything is going so crazy right now! Mike has gotten a new job! He, and us as a family, were so ready for this change. The stress of the business and the hours were just really
starting to get to us.

Other then more time with him, a major advantage to his new job is it is in Rochester!! So, on Friday, we will be living in Rochester again! It seems so crazy to say, and it really hasn't sunk in yet.


And finally, the BIGGEST news of today.... I had a dr's appt and ultrasound. Everything is looking wonderful. The baby is totally healthy. And more so, we know what the baby is! HE made sure to position himself perfectly so we could see. So Michelle is going to have a little brother. She has been saying that all along, so she is thrilled. According to her, his name is Baby Helicopter. I had no clue how we were going to tell her it was a girl, she has been so sure. But he really does look amazing. It was such a change from just a couple months ago. He is beautiful.

So, that is pretty much what is going on. It will be a crazy n
ext few weeks, but awesome ones!

Dr's appt and another ultrasound

Hello Dear Blogity Blog Blog reader. How are you? Doing well I hope. Long time since we have talked.

So, read any good books lately?? What about movies? Try any new recipes??

Well, sheesh, if you don't feel like talking, I guess I will just talk.

I had a Dr's appt today. Things went great. I am down 5 lbs, which I was shocked at. I feel like I am eating non stop and I haven't had one m/s. Oh well, I have it to lose, so nothing to worry about. Everything was pretty routine.

I had a super awesome ultrasound. The last one I had was three weeks ago(see pic in below post). I was so amazed at the growth. Three weeks ago we had a baby that looked like a diamond on a ring. Today, we had an alien baby, but still a baby! With a nice strong heartbeat. Michelle LOVED it. She kept telling everyone she got to see the baby in her Mama's tummy.

Things here are going great. I have been really tired, but other then that, I have been feeling great. We are getting ready for Michelle's birthday on Sunday. My baby is going to be 3!!! We have all of her presents, and we ordered her cake. She has requested a Spongebob cake, with a Tinkerbell candle. She also has Spongebob plates, Princess napkins, Backyardigans cups, and Blues Clues hats. What can I say, she likes a nice mix.

Anywho, I should be getting to bed. Hopefully next time you feel like talking more. LOL.







By the way, it says CRL by the baby's head, not GIRL. We won't know what Baby Whoseit is for another 10 weeks.

Oops, forgot the picture!!!!

First ultrasound!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Woooo!!! I am so happy!!! We had our first ultrasound today, at 6 weeks. Everything looks great. There is one baby complete with heartbeat! The tech was very happy to see a heartbeat, since it is so early, even if things were perfect, it is possible to not see the heartbeat.

I have another ultrasound in 2 weeks, just to double check that there is only one, and the heartbeat is still going strong!


My due date is May 4th!!!!


Michelle is so excited to be a big sister! She wouldn't let go of the ultrasound picture, and was telling everyone about the baby in Mama's tummy.

Because I do everything like my big sister.....

Because I do everything like my big sister......






I am FINALLY pregnant!!! TWO (long!!!) years in the making, it has finally happened. I still can not believe it. I am ecstatic!! We have our first ultrasound on the 9th to see the heartbeat.... Or heartbeats as some people have been saying, haha.

I am feeling pretty good. A little nausea, but so well worth it. Michelle is so excited to be a big sister, and always wants to look in my belly button to see the baby.

*SOB.... WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH.... SNIFFLE SNIFFLE!!!!*

Thanks for letting me get that out of my system....

My little girl is in a big twin bed!!!! Sheesh, I swear I blinked once, and time flew by! We still have some stuff to do for her room, but her bed is all done. She LOVES it. I can't wait to see how the room looks all complete.

Here is a slide show of pics I took real quick today:

This rant is brought to you by the "letter" C...

At the risk of sounding like a bad comic...

What's the deal with the letter C??? Does it have a purpose??? Every word with a C in it, the C is either making the K sound, or the S sound. It is an impostor letter. It serves no purpose. Why not get rid of it, and have a 25 letter alphabet. It's so lazy, mooching off the work of K and S. It needs to get a job! All the other letters have their own sound(or two!), but this one just copies. It is ridiculous.

And while we are on the subject of moochers.....

What the hell is up with grapefruit?? First off, the only way it is slightly edible is with... Oh, I dunno, a pound or two of sugar. And, if you are going to do that, why not just grab the sugar and a spoon and go to town.

My next issue with grapefruit... Why is it trying to mooch of grape's name?? You hear grapefruit and you think "Mmmmm, grapes are so delicious, so this must be twice as delicious since it is Grapefruit." . It is giving grapes everywhere a bad name.


So, on top of grapefruit being super shady, and a moocher, it is also the evilest of all fruits(not to be confused with broccoli the deadliest of all veggies). Lets say you get a delicious fruit salad(no, that isn't an oxymoron) and you take a bite of a delicious looking juicy red strawberry. What does it taste like you ask??? Bitterness. No matter how many delicious fruits(What?? No, I am serious, that is not an oxymoron. Yes, really.) you have in your salad, those two tiny pieces of grapefruit that were so carelessly added have attacked the other delicious flavors. The evil vile juice of the grapefruit, has seeped in and taken over the taste of your fruit salad. It is sad, really.

So, my advice to you, be wary of the moocher/impostor "letter" C, and of the evil grapefruit.

Blog-a-palooza pt 4: Because we don't have enough....

Well, we have a dog, and 2 cats, and now..... A guinea pig!!!! Michelle has been asking for a hamster for a long time. Guinea pigs are cuter, cleaner, and more friendly, so we got a guinea pig instead. We are a random family, haha. So, here are, of course, some pictures of our yet to be named guinea pig.








Blog-a-palozza pt 3: Sandbox

Michelle got a new sandbox a... Well, a while ago. Hey, I already apologized! Fine, you are right, I am sorry.

She LOVES it. We got her plain sand, and Crayola makes some awesome colored sand. So, she also has pink, green, and purple sand. And now some pictures!!

Yeah, I know that was a quick post, but Blog-a-palooza isn't done yet!!

New entry pt 2: Kings Island!

A couple weeks ago we took an impromptu trip to Kings Island amusement park in Cincinnati. Basically, we decided late Saturday to go, got the tickets and booked the hotel room, and left Sunday night when Mike got home. Everyone takes vacations like that. What? They don't?? Oh..... Moving on........

Anyways, it was AMAZING! The kids section is all Nickelodeon and Nick Jr stuff. Michelle had such a blast. Mike loves water rides, so he went on a bunch of those. Unfortunately, Michelle is such a tiny little one, there weren't a lot of rides she could go on. But she still had so much fun. And of course.... Some pictures!!!!


































Did I say some pictures?? I meant a crap load!
