The shower -
Besides a few complaints with the restaurant management, like not telling me that I needed to bring my own cake plates and them really over booking the place, every thing went very well. It was just so nice that so many people (55) took the time out of their weekend to come and celebrate with us. I know my daughter felt a bit over whelmed, I caught her tearing up more then once. We are so very blessed with wonderful family and friends in our life.

Appointment-
Every thing looks real good and still no boy parts were spotted. So that’s a relief. I know there is only like a 1 or 2% of the baby coming out a boy but you know, some one has to be that percent, even it is a small.  I am glad we don’t have much longer to wait, I really want to meet this little girl already.

Allison-
I can not believe my little girl is done with second grade already. Over the past couple of days we have changed her name from Allison to “The third grader” when referring to her. Time is going going by way too fast.
Her dad and decided to sign her back up for horse back riding now that she is a little bit older.  She starts July 11Th and is counting down the days.

The starter Wife -
Very disappointing! I had such high hopes for it but I am just not digging it.

But what I am digging is Army Wives, on Lifetime. Two episodes in and really liking it.

I am taking Bethany to her doctors appointment this evening that includes another ultra sound.
Now that we have a house full of pink baby items, I am praying it’s still a girl.

I posted some baby shower pics on Flickr.

I think I need a nice bottle of wine, a warm bath and about twenty hours of sleep to recoup from this weekend.

This weekend is all about the baby, my granddaughter and getting ready for her.
Yesterday, was our birthing class where I played the role of “father” and some times “coach”. Nine cute lovey dovey couples and us. I tried to do everything the other dad’s were doing like rubbing her lower back and squeezing her hand from time to time.
The class was from 8:00am to 4:30pm, it was a long day but well worth it. Even after having two kids already I learned a few new things and I know it was very good for my daughter. You should have seen her face during the birthing video. Wow.
We also went on a tour of the delivery rooms and nursery. The rooms are beautiful and they have everything we could need. Amazing how things have changed over twenty years. Even over eight years things have really improved.
We left with all of her questions answered and feeling really good about things. I am so glad I signed us up.

Today, the baby shower!

My husbands truck was broken into late last night. Who ever did it must have felt like they hit the jackpot. Because he has been working around the clock on side jobs and had a backseat full of tools. About $3000.00 worth! This really pisses me off! Even if the insurance company pays our claim there are some things that can’t be replaced. Like a nice wrench set that was given to you by your brother not long before he passed away. Now gone.

How do people do these things and still sleep at night? For all they know my husband uses those tools to support his family. We are for sure going to feel it if he can’t finish his side jobs with out replacing them.

SON OF A BITCH!

Only 111 more days until season five!

What is it about the word “diet” that makes me so damn hungry?

I think my blog needs one.

Any ideas?
