Our awesome photographer posted this pic on Facebook. I absolutely love it and can't wait to see the rest!! We LOVE you Jenn!

Overload of Love

I am so blessed by my church family! They have helped to ease my anxiety about the changes that are about to come. CityLight Church, That Dude and I are so grateful for you!!

Not Me! Monday

I did NOT just realize last night that a baby gift that we received two weeks ago isn't in our house! I will NOT have to call That Dude's aunt today to ask if we left the gift at her house.

I did NOT eat 4 cinnamon donuts and a white powdered one in 3 days. I also DIDN'T have chocolate chip cookies AND homemade chocolate cake at my babyshower yesterday! I have optimal eating habits and would NEVER consume that much sugar in such a short time!

What HAVEN'T you done lately?

My 1st Babyshower

That Dude has some awesome (just like family) friends who put together a small babyshower for us recently. We love you guys and can't thank you enough!

3rd Trimester Sleepiness

Yup... That's how I feel at work everyday lately. I think it's almost time for Chocolate Chip to make his appearance!

Monday Morning Musing

Never eat spaghetti in a home where the person cooking thinks the saying is, "A washed pot never boils."

How I Know That It's Almost Time

I don't feel bad about not going to church tonight! Generally I try to attend the Friday night as well as the Sunday services at my church. Tonight though, all I can think about is heading home to take a hot shower, writing a few thank you cards and then spending the rest of the evening in bed! That Dude is at a seminar tonight, so it's just me, the DVR and my bed, and I'm truly ok with that! A few weeks ago, I would've dragged myself (I love my church, but I've been feeling so tired lately) to church because I would've felt like I owed it to someone. AND since tomorrow I have to be there to begin setting up at 9am for our annual block party, I know that I need the rest!

Green Bunting

NaBloPoMo's theme for August is "green" and while I've never actually completed a month of blogging daily, I thought that this was enough incentive as any to write about our first registry gift arriving in the mail!

Imagine my surprise when I arrived home from a friend's house and I had a package waiting for me. I had recently bought some stuff on eBay, but I was certain that it was too soon for that. I opened it and was pleasantly surprised to find:

Yay! Chocolate Chip will be both warm AND cute this Winter!
