Sweet Face!

OH how I love this sweet face! He can make any bad day, a good day!
He loves his family and toys unconditionally! Especially his momma!
He was not in the mood for a photo shoot and wanted to play with his toy!
He loves a pretty day outside!
I love his silly face in this picture, but makes me sad he is getting so gray around his mouth.
Watching his Daddy do something in the garage!
Buddy will always be my baby!
 He is excited he is going to be a big brother!

Take Me Out To The Ball Game!

A couple of weeks ago my boss gave me 4 tickets to a local base ball game. My company bought VIP box seat tickets and they are trying to make sure everyone gets to go to a game or two. Christian and I took my two nephews with us. It was such a fun night! We got park in VIP Parking, we got to ride up in the special elevator to the box seats, and the founders club. They had a huge buffet set up with all the food you can eat. There was so much food: a carving station with prime rib and ham, mashed potatos, greenbeans, fish, rice, hot dogs, chicken tenders, rolls, dessert, and so much more. This pregnant girl was in heaven! It was also unlimited fountian drinks too!
Here are my two sweet nephews Kenneth and Jacob!!! Their mom, my sister just started a blog and you should also check her out  here!!
Christian and I waiting for the game to start. Please ignore the horrible picture of me.
The baseball field! This was opening week for the Dash baseball team and stadium, it was very nice!

Back with BIG news!!!!!!!

So I'm finally over my blog break, although I have decided I'm not going to blog every day. I plan on only blogging a few times a week. I let the computer take way too much time from my days and I want to put a stop to it. I've tried to stay away from facebook and twitter and only visit a couple times day, if I get a chance.
Anyways....on to my BIG news!!! At the end of February I started not feeling well and after being sick all weekend, I decided to go the doctor on March 1st. I thought I was only going in for a sinus infection, but come to find out I am PREGNANT!!!!!!
I was in total shock and couldn't believe it when the doctor told me I was going to be a mommy! We were not trying, but I guess we were not Not trying either. We had planned on starting this summer, but God had a different plan. I had taken a pregnancy test the week before just to make sure I wasn't pregnant because I couldn't figure out what was wrong with me. Well once I saw the first line pop up, I threw the test away and didn't think another thing about it. So once the doctor confirmed it with their test (the one in the plastic bag above), I went to Target to buy another test and sure enough it was positive, but it took the full 3 minutes for the 2nd line to pop up. I got to thinking that I didn't wait that long on the first one, so I went through the trash and sure enough the one I threw away was positive too....HA! (please ignore the horrible picture of me above, I had been sick)

I had to share my two positive tests, you can hardly see the 2nd line but it is there.
I will be 12 weeks on Wednesday, which makes my due date October 27th!!!!!!!!!
I've been feeling horrible and getting sick which is the reason I've not been blogging. Getting on the computer is the last thing I feel like doing lately. I plan on doing my weekly updates on here. I want to help myself keep track of my pregnancy.
Here I am at 9 weeks, but I feel like I look HUGE in this picture. I really think it might be the shirt or that is what I'm telling myself.
Here I am at 10 weeks. The weather has been so nice here lately, I've been trying to spend my time outside and we've been walking in the evenings. I never got the chance to do my 11 week picture, but I will be back this Wednesday with my 12 week and an update!
I'm so excited about this sweet baby and feel so blessed, even on the days I don't think I'm going to make it. I try to remind myself how many people who would die to be in my position and thank God!!!

I'm Still Alive!

My computer break has been a little longer than I expected! I've actually enjoyed it and not ready to come back yet. I would sit on the computer for hours reading blogs, twittering, playing on facebook, or surfing the internet, but now my nights are very relaxing. I chose to take a break from the computer last week because I hadn't been feeling well and didn't want to do anything but lay around. I still have a major headache that will not go away for long, so the last thing I want to do when I get home from after working on a computer all day is get on a computer again. I plan to start blogging and twittering again soon, just not now. Here is what we've been up to we celebrated my oldest nephew's 11th birthday, Buddy's 4th birthday, my mom had surgery, I've been sick, enjoying the beautiful Spring like weather, and so on. I'll be back soon!!!
