My Husband the Hero
After several months of having a non paying rent, little pooper, food eating tenant in our house Gene FINALLY caught the mouse that was making his home in our cabinets and pantry. Would you believe he ate an entire bag of 100 calorie teddy-grams. At least he was conscience of his weight. So I will say it now Gene is my hero cause that mouse was driving me crazy.
Happy Memorial Day
To all those who serve I wish you a Happy Memorial Day. While rushing off to a great sale take a moment to thank someone who has served this great country proud. Whether is was yesterday or yesteryear our country would not be where it is today if not for our service men and women.
Thank you to everyone who has served this great nation and to those that currently serve. God Bless You All!

Maternity Photos
Thank you so much to Mollie for taking these great pictures and capturing a moment in our life that will change us forever. They came out great! Check out the rest of them at http://share.shutterfly.com/action/welcome?sid=0BYtWLlmzYsnGQ&emid=sharview&linkid=link4
Things I have discovered....
1. I can no longer tie my shoes or my combat boots without getting out of breath and squishing my kid.
2. I can no longer paint my own toes
3. I can no longer wear some of my maternity pants from earlier in my pregnancy.
4. I can no longer wear T-shirts that used to be my big wear to bed shirts.
5. I can no longer shave the left side of my left leg with my right hand, meaning I have become ambidextrous when it comes to shaving but need to be extremely careful not to cut myself.
6. There are certain parts of my body that I truly just can’t see any more.
7. Heartburn is no joke.
8. You cannot overdose on Tums but in severe cases of heart burn you’d like to.
9. When your organs are directly below your chest things can just be uncomfortable.
10. No matter how hungry I think I am I still can’t eat a full meal anymore.
11. The scale is the enemy
12. Bedtime for me means playtime for the baby
13. Sleep is a strange concept cause when you can’t get comfortable and every time you roll over you discover you have to pee means you are not getting much of it.
14. I am no longer as organized as I once was.
15. The more my kid’s brain develops the dumber I get.
16. Buy stock in sticky pads because between my dad and I we use enough to make you some money in the stock market.
17. I am not glowing I am sweating
18. I am so darn hot and can’t get the air conditioner low enough to feel better.
19. I no longer like water as much as I used to.
20. People are rude when they point out how big you are getting. I am the one carrying the weight do they think I don’t realize how big I have gotten.
21. I can no longer walk as fast as the old lady next to me on the tred mill- go figure since my lungs have disappeared.
22. I miss wine.
Over all I love being pregnant, though I am not sure exactly why.

Weekend Extras
Now that is one HOT MAMA!
Minnie listening to JC
The Kern Family
OK here is a great preggy picture of me. Baby Shower
Thanks to all that were able to attend our shower and thanks to those that sent gifts for JC but couldn't be here. We had some good food, great weather and a ton of fun. A special thanks to Dad, Sue and Amy for throwing Gene and I the most amazing shower.
Here are some pics of the day.
Playing a game...can you tell what the parts are in an ultra sound? I can't!
The Newman family cheated on their game. Husband, Chris, is an ultra sound tech. Though I guess that's why he went to school forever to beat others at Baby Shower games.
Me and all my gifts. Thanks again to all!
Gene and one of my favorite gifts...THE DIAPER GENIE. NO smelly diapers in our nursery.
Is this not the most precious blanket and it has JC's Monogram on it.
Me and the girls- I work or have worked with all of them.
Gene and his friend Jessica from CT. Jessica brought along Eric for the 12 hour ride from CT. What great friends.
