1/2 OFF!

Ok..so here's the problem. Yesterday F and I went to Drug Mart to get some tylenol, and then it hit me....the baby aisle. Oh boy, they had quite a bit of stuff 50% off :-) I couldn't resist. However, I did limit myslef to only four things, but I could have spent a fortune.

In case you haven't figured it out yet, I am way uber excited to be a dad. I constantly have daydreams about the little one. It's unbelievable to me how many people out there have children that they don't really want, how could you not want a child, your child, one of God's little miracles? I am preplexed

Enough about me, you guys want to know about F. F is doing fine despite the normal pregnancy quirks. She has the nausea, fatigue, and the cravings that go with it. She has been recently on the banana craving and tuna salad sandwhiches. However stessful the months to come will be, I assure you that your precious F will be in good hands.

Just thought you guys would like a little update. I hope all is well in your lives.
We love you guys!

bundle of joy

Well it all started when F wasn't feeling very well and this continued on for a few days, and being the genius that I am...I got to thinking...Maybe she's pregnant? Nah! I thought. But her symptoms were so common with pregnancy, so we bought the at-home tests. The results were negative, so that got us worried. So we kept trying these tests and still...negative, negative, negative. How disappointing :-(

With her symptoms persisting, we thought that pregnancy is the only answer, if not, something was seriously wrong.

So off to Stat-Care for a blood pregnancy test. And after the longest 20-minutes of our lives, Doc says "your pregnant"

WOW, that was the 2nd best day of my life. (first being marrying F) I am going to be a dad, holy moses I am going to be a dad. That's a day I have waited for all of my life, and now it's becoming a reality. I couldn't be happier than having F as my wife and baby's mom. I just love her to the moon and back!

So we set up a doctors appointment for today and found out the due date for the little one is May 26th!!

So through many cravings, sleepless nights and doctors visits, our little bundle of joy will be coming into this world. We consider this to be a true blessing and cannot wait for our new arrival!

Hey there, hi there, ho there....

Well, I guess it's been a while. Not much going on here. Larry's been working like a mad man....he's been taking as many hours as possible to make sure everything is taken care of while I'm not working...and so we have money to spend. I've been busy too....busy doing....wait, that's right....I'm still not working. Though I am trying to find something....still sending out resumes. I have gotten some cleaning and laundry done the last few days. Always a plus, because that means no more "Baby, I don't have any clean roos" and now it's just "Baby, I'm down to just the roos I don't like" hehehe. Maybe I'm starting to get this domestic thing a little after all.

I just wanted to pop in and say hello...we want to keep you guys up to date, though when I sit here there doesn't seem much to say. So, what's new with you?

Funny story....

Ok...so I tag along with L. sometimes for work since I have no purpose in life at the moment. I love going with him because we get to talk and see different things together and just enjoy our time together. It's also on these days that I often get quite a few good chuckles and sometimes a funny story. With that in mind, kick back, relax, and enjoy a chuckle on L.B. :-)


It's a beautiful sunhiney day.We're driving down the road to a call at a Speedway. He is about to make a left hand turn in to the driveway.

Me: Babe. Babe. Babe. Watch out for the BIG curb.
Bam Bam Bam (we hit the curb full on and shake around like a babydoll in the hands of a running three year old).
L.B.: I saw it.
Me: (looking at him with a puzzled expression and raised eyebrow) Then why did you hit it?
L.B.: (looking at me like I've simply lost my mind) Because the sun was shining in my eyes, and I couldn't see. (his tone matched the look on his face...like just try to understand me you simple woman)
Me: Um................Ok (didn't he just say that he saw the curb?)

Welcome to a day in the life! LOL....I absolutely love this boy. He's so stinkin cute. He didn't want me to share this story, and when I asked why he said "cause it's too funny"....meaning for once you might giggle at him and not at something stupid I've done or said. Turn about is fair play!!

Not much else is going on right now. I'm spending ooodles of his hard earned money on stamps and envelopes looking for a job; We're dealing with a retarded dog who enjoys eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches off the counter while I'm in the shower; We have a cute loveable cat that takes after me and minds her own business in the house and bats at whomever interrupts her quiet time; and that's about all. Not much else. What's new with you?


Oh yeah...and to answer the questions about books. I got a few books at the library...all different authors. I just started the Sue Grafton series with "A is for Alibi"....I'll let you know how it goes. I'm looking for new authors though because I've read all of my favorites (except for a Mary Higgins Clark one that hasn't been in the library the last few months). Any suggestions?

Love you guys!!!

Want to hear some exciting news?

Yeah Yeah Yeah..wouldn't we all. Absolutely nothing new and exciting here, just the same ole stuff.

S, as for which books I have been reading, I don't read books, that's why there are movies :-P I really have never been one to sit down with a book. Does that make me dumb? F think so LOL. She uses all these big words that I don't know and she tells me I would know them if I read. What a stinker!!

Well it's going to be another glorious day, I have to work, and F is going to tag along...Have I ever said how much I love her company, and how much I just love her. She does frustrate me a bunch, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

I hope everything is going great for everyone, and next time i promise i will have something to share, instead of just rambling...

Simply Sluggish...

So, we meet again. How's it going in your world? You ask the same of me? Well...let me tell you... It's hot...I don't mean a little warm...I mean freaking HOT!!! As my friend Erika would say,"I'm sweatin' like a prostitute in the Baptist church." Nah, really I'm not sweating cause I haven't left the house.

Yesterday L.B. worked and got his hairs cut. He looks soooo cute! Last night I did some laundry, cleaned up the house a smidgey, and we ate dinner. He's off again today, praise God! We've done absolutely zilch today. It's nice when those days come along once in a while. Laying around eating, watching TV, and then remembering that a shower might be a pleasant addition to the day.

I think the last time we posted was to tell you that he had a day off...I'm seeing a trend. That day I got my hairs cut, and then we hit the grocery store and Bed Bath and Beyond. I have to tell you that I L-O-V-E that store. I told L.B. that we wouldn't be in there long cause I hate shopping....but it's a time warp in there. We used our wedding money and bought some stuff for the house. I think I could easily spend millions in that store. We got curtains, new canisters for the counter, cookie sheets, and the list could go on and on. If you would happen to need shopping ideas for any up and coming holiday....let me whisper in your ear...come closer "Bed Bath and Beyond."

Ok...I'm off to dry my hair and get back to my important tasks for the day. (reading my newest library book, cause I also got a chance to visit our local library the other day). Life is good....we are simply sluggish.

Finally...

So here it is...Finally...A day off! What should we do today? Actually there is a lot to do today.

We both need haircuts, I am beginning to look a little wavy, and F's hair is just driving her nuts...SO that #1 on our list

Also we are going to go grocery shopping and then to the library to get F some new and exciting books.

I am hoping this evening we can just "veg" and watch a movie and cook something good for dinner and just have a nice quiet evening enjoying each others company.

See we weren't kidding when we said life in podunk was uneventful! LOL
