Our little Genius nephew Porter

ok so I just HAD to post this story cause its just hillarious and Macaia doesn't have a blog and can't post it on hers. hahah. anywho, Porter (our 5 year old nephew) was watching blues clues. as you all know its a very interactive show that allows kids to answer the questions the guy says. so they were talking about night and day and steve (the host) asked "why is it dark?" and porter being the little genius he is answered "because the earth is bent and when it's night time the sun is on the other side of the earth and its day over there and night here" and when the host answered it was a simple "because it's night!" hahaah and porter shrugged his shoulders and said "well, ya.... it's night" hahahaha oh my gosh I almost peeded my pants. haha I love that kido!!!

PAMPERING DAY!

Saturday Derek treated me to a pampering day! I was starting to feel a little ran down cause of pregancy so I went and got my hair cut and colored and then went and got a relaxing pedicure. Let me tell ya... it was just what I needed! thank you again Derek for taking care of business while I went and spoiled myself! hahah love your guts and thanks for all you do for me! its amazing what a hair cut and a pedicure can do for a girl. Am I right ladies?!! and I gotta take advantage of it now cause I know once the second baby comes I won't be able to! come on... we are all spoiled on our first pregnancy right?!!!

CONGRATS WILL!

Our brother Will got sworn in as a US citizen! congratulations Will! we love you guys! we always go to lunch afterwards and Macaroni Grill was the choice!

everlasting laundry...

So I swear everytime I come home there is always laundry to do... even if I finished it the night before! Don't you feel like sometimes laundry just grows or "jumps" right into your laundry basket and wants to just hang out in there? I sure do. and it's always blacks that I wash... Hm... I wonder why my cat always smells so fresh and so clean? hahaha no no jk i promise I don't put my cat in the washing machine. He just likes to hang in there... and the dryer...

Too early you think?

hahahah I DON'T care! haha I absolutely LOVE Christmas! and I always put up my christmas stuff beginning of November. hahah I know I know... I AM A CHRISTMAHOLIC!

22 weeks and counting!

ok! here ya go! I'm growing and growing fast! Derek felt Sophie kick real hard the other day and really enjoyed it. He's felt her kick a little here and there but I guess she was saying hi the other day or something because she kicked him hard! gotta love it! he's gonna be such a great dad. I can't belive how my face is blowing up! I swear I'm going to end up rolling down the road by the time I'm 9 months! aaah! Oh well right! totally worth it!

3rd Annual White Trash Party

ok. So I have no idea what makes us think this is a normal party. hahahah it is just so funny to go to these. every year we do this and every year it just gets bigger. We all dress like white trash and throw a party! sounds normal right? ya... its a blast. weird. but a blast. Dont you worry. we weren't all drunk. its all apple beer and root beer. hahah but man we sure did pull off a good one this year! we had about 60 people show and it was fun. I'm just glad we didn't throw it at our house....
