the guy in the top left photo is.......... LORIN at last years tournament (which I missed because I was in traffic school)

Lorin's Birthday..........

Happy Birthday Mooney!!!!! The NEWPORT LEGENDS rocked the 5 Ds of Dodgeball-dodge, duck, dip, dive and dodge. This was the funniest thing I have EVER seen and is by far my new favorite sport to watch!!! They even had a player on their team end up with the MVP award. After the tournament we a had a big birthday BBQ at our house.

my 1st Mother's Day.......


i was as happy as this poodle to spend the morning with Lorin and Bling at the dog beach.....


even the chubby squirrel stopped by to wish me a good one!

Hello Milo!

Well here he is! This is the last time we get to see him until he makes his big debut this summer. The 3D/4D ultrasound is truly an amazing experience. We got to see Milo open his mouth, kick out his little legs, relax with his left arm up by his face (which seems to be his position of choice) and just float in pure baby bliss. Seeing his face for the first time like that was overwhelming and it brought tears straight to my eyes. I can't wait for him to be here but at the same time I am happy to spend the next 3 months with him right here in my tummy kicking and swishing away. We had quite a party there for this big ultrasound......... I am so blessed with this little miracle growing inside.

tonight's the big night!

i can hardly wait for the 3D 4D ultrasound! i've been resting up all afternoon and in about 45 minutes I'm going eat my yummy fruit popsicle and have glass a apple juice to get Milo ready to say Hello to everyone!

I had my Doctors appt today......... bad news........ i have to wear support hose....... :( otherwise the veins on my legs are going to get worse. So if you see me walking around with really tan shiny legs........... DON'T ASK ME FOR CHICKEN WINGS!!!!!! :(

there's a hot handy man at my house..........LORIN! i'm his assistant but he's really doing all the work. so far he's managed to fix the window downstairs, paint the upstairs hallway (yellow), redo our front yard by removing all the old plants from the previous owner and planting all new beautiful green tropical-ish plants.......... oh yeah......... and he's pretty much completed little baby Milo's room. it all looks so good. what a difference some paint and major elbow grease can make. :)
