Baby Shower

What to do with all this stuff? We had my baby shower on Sunday and it was pretty painless. Thanks to my Aunt and Uncle we were able to have it at their house so it was a nice casual and relaxed party. Just the way I like it! Everyone had a good time considering it was a shower.
Since I am the last one in the world to have a baby I didn't need to register for much so I got a lot of gift cards which cut down on the boredom of the gift opening process.
We still need to get baby's room ready. We haven't done anything yet. It doesn't help that this house could sell at anytime and we may have to move sooner rather than later. I am obviously hoping for later. I have so much stuff!
We are going to go raid my aunt's basement on Friday and collect all the furniture we'll need. I have so many cradles, bassinets, baskets and cribs to pick from it's pretty much like shopping down there. Then there is a whole swing, bouncy seat, exo-saucer, car seat section too. After 5 grandchildren she pretty much has it all. Between that and all my friends we got it all at the low low price of nothing! Can't thank everyone enough.
I would put some pictures up with this post but this computer won't let me. I will try to post some from my phone later.
I really need a new computer especially with all the pictures we will be taking of the little one.

Jealous much?

I don't know how these pups are going to do when baby comes along. I'm thinking it's going to be a big adjustment for all! They just can't seem to get close enough to either of us. Wish us luck

Damn time flies!

I can't believe it has been almost two years since I have posted anything on my blog. So much has happened and most of it just in the past year alone. I don't think anyone even checks this blog anymore but what the hell.
Let's see...where to start? As most of you all know I am pregnant and expecting in mid-April. We don't know if we are having a boy or girl which is the most exciting part of all this to me. It is one of if not only last great surprise in this world these days. There is no app or website that can help me with this one. We will only know the answer seconds after the little one shows up.
Steven and I can't decide on a girl name. We think we have a boy name picked out but we are totally stuck if it's a girl. I guess we'll have to figure it out eventually.
We also had a quickie wedding on February 10th. We decided the Monday before and with the help of my family, the good Reverend and Restaurant Serenade we pulled it off. Steven's mom happened to be visiting that weekend and it also happen to fall on Boppy's birthday so it worked out well. Unfortunately the rest of Steven's family couldn't be there because they don't live around here but we'll have a big party with a do over if we need to to appease all.
The room there only fits about 30 normal size people or 25 Russo size people. We had 28 so it was a little tight but we had a great time. My maid of honor was Aida Jean with Violet was a bridesmaid and Amelia was my flower girl. They had no idea what any of it meant but they were so excited to be a part of the ceremony. Duncan and Drew were the ring bearers as well so all of them were involved.
Calling it a wedding is a stretch. I think rehearsal dinners were more organized than this was but I wouldn't of had it any other way. Quick and easy and most important inexpensive.
I really didn't want to get married just because I was pregnant but in the end and for insurance reasons we decided to go ahead with it. Married life has not changed anything at all. We don't even have wedding rings. I love having him as my husband and couldn't ask for anyone better for the job because we know it's not an easy one especially since I got fired from my job 3 weeks before I was going to go on maternity leave.
Yes, you read that one right. I got fired from my job because I can't control my emotions and lost it with a manager. That job was stressing me out way too much anyway. I know, who fires a pregnant women? Men, that's who. The women fought for me but the men could care less. At least I don't have to worry about child care after the baby is born since I don't have a job to go back to. I'm sure it will all work out in the end, at least I hope so.
I guess that is a good start for not blogging for two years huh?
