Is it just me, or are the US Olympic track suits they wear for medal ceremonies ugly? (Nothing against Missy Franklin....I think she is adorable.) Is it just me, or was the opening ceremonies kind of weird? Without the commentary I would have had no clue what was going on. But the Mary Poppins invasion was one of my favorite ... Read More

I mentioned last week that I work with some wonderful people. Thankfully, so does the husband! On Thursday his co-workers put together an awesome shower for us and Baby R. And it was baseball themed! They know the husband well.  There were cute baseball lanterns everywhere. I'll have to try to find a way to incorporate them in to the ... Read More

How far along? 34 weeks. They say that newborn babies can recognize their mama's singing voice if she sings to them while still pregnant. But I'm not sure baby boy wants to here his mama sing off key! Anyway, it is crazy how fast this pregnancy is going. It seemed like it took forever for me to get to 12 weeks....and now it's just flying ... Read More

Before I was pregnant I worried about gaining a ton of weight and then not being able to loose it. But now that I'm actually pregnant it doesn't bug me at all....it's all about the ... Read More

It's happening tomorrow. We are going white. With our kitchen cabinets that is. I'm excited and terrified at the same time! The kitchen, before. I am now the unofficial expert on shades of white paint made by Benjamin Moore. There are WAY to many options. After some research I narrowed it down to three whites: White Dove, Simply White, and ... Read More

Happy Monday! I had a fabulous birthday weekend! My mom asked me what I wanted to do for my birthday....and the only thing I really wanted was to go to Ikea! So we did! I grew up with several Ikea locations around me, so it was never a big deal to pop in for a quick visit. But now, Ikea is over 2 hours away....so it's totally an all day ... Read More

 How far along? 32 weeks...only 8 more to go! This pregnancy is flying by. Maternity clothes? Still a mix of maternity and non-maternity.  Stretch marks? Nope. Sleep: I'm starting to have a harder time finding a comfortable position at night, but at least once I do I fall asleep quickly. Still getting up twice to go ... Read More
