The Mis-haps!

Well the last few days that I have had off have not gone over SO well. The biggest downfall was our fidge. Tuesday is buy a pint, get a pint free at brusters so Chris and I decided to treat ourselfes! I usually can't eat a whole cone on my own on a regular day, so a pint I knew would last at least 2 days! So Wednesday morning I woke up to enjoy my wonderful breakfast (aka Brusters) and all I had was ice cream MILK, YUCK! So needless to say everything was thawed out and there was no fixing our dinosaur of a machine, so I called my wonderful father who is also landlord. With in a few hours my parents had decided that they needed an upgraded fridge and we could deffinatly settle for a hammy down. Much cheeper! So last night we were up til 10 or so suffeling fidges around and my parents new one should be in today!

So today I started my first of 5 days in a row. This for sure has its pros and cons. I get to take a week long vacation without taking any days off but on the flip side I have to work all my days in a row which is not easy to do when your feet are swollen and 6 months pregnant. But God willing I will make it through. Sometime inbetween all of this madness I need to find time to pack up for our long journey to Colorado! One of my best friends has decided to take a huge leap of faith and move to Colorado (dont let her fool you though b/c Texas is her home!) and I couldn't let her make the trip alone! So wednesday morning we set way at 5am and tuesday I shall return on a plane with my awesome sister! Pray that all goes well!

As if that is not enough my family has all kinds of issues itself. My grandmother is going for a heart cath on tuesday and possible surgery to follow (when me and Jen are gone), not a whole lot has changed with my grandfather but it still puts a lot of stress on my dad (this is a continued prayer request) and then of coarse my pregnant self is always emotional. "I'm ready for a slow down".

Hopefully when we get back from Colorado things will get better and get my mind of all kinds of stuff, because I think that is all that is going to help! Ill keep you updated!!!!

So after we went to Canton a few weeks ago I got this creative strike in me! I had decided that I wanted to attempt making a dress. So i asked my cousin if I could use her daughter as a model! I was actually quite proud of myself because it didn't fall apart when i put it on her, lol! My mom and I also decided that we are going to try not to spen $20 on all the precious hair bows, instead we are going to try to make them ourselfs. So the whole outfit probably cost like 8 bucks! Well anyways so I also wanted to get out and take some pictures and play with photoshop to see what all I can do. I am for sure going to need some practice before Lilly gets her :) but Addie was SO adorable. Either she really likes the camera or she is just photogenic because it was so easy! Chris came with us and he was AWESOME with her! The worst part was being 6 months pregnant in the 105 degree weather that we are having UGH! So here are some pictures that we took!

My first blog!

Well this is my first REAl post! I hope to use this to keep all the family updated and most importanly keep up with our past, I can use this to look back on what all we have done and see how fast our child grows!

We have decided to name our little girl Lillian Paige and we will call her Lilly! Everywhere we go we find signs of Lilly, Chris came home the other day after he started reading the Harry Potter books and said that he was SOLD on Lilly because that was Harry's mother name! He is such a nerd but I love him! Aunt Jenny ever bought her a bag with her name embrodered on it, a book called Lillys purple plastic purse and this toy that sings "Hi I'm Lilly" lol, what are the odds! Chris and I have been working on the nursery for a few weeks now and it is almost done, Praise the LORD! Chris did all the painting, and Deb has made all of our bedding (I am so thankful b/c it looks amazing). We should post pictures very soon we just have to add a few touches first! I think this is all for today, hopefully I will figure this all out!
