The First of the Cravings

Give me some of these....

Sprinkled with a little of this.....

And I'm in heaven!!

I've always enjoyed a fresh lemon in my water, but now I crave the whole thing, just like an orange (only with a little salt). I know, I know, it's terrible for my teeth. I try not to indulge too often!

The Secret is Out......

BABY #1 IS ON ITS WAY
12 weeks is a long time to keep a secret, but I'm finally there and we feel pretty confident sharing our exciting news with everyone!! We heard the little heart beat just over a week ago...it was such a neat experience!!

Just for some fun....


This was totally me...

I am currently TRYING to avoid this....


Not really looking forward to this....

But starting to notice a little of this....
I know Brett can't wait for this....

And we are both trying NOT to think about this.....

All joking aside, we really are THRILLED to have a little baby joining our family in February!!

We can't wait to find out what we are having, and although I've been nauseous, vomiting, and tired all of the time, I couldn't be happier! Brett's instincts say it's a girl, whereas I don't have a clue! Let's hope those maternal instincts kick in soon:)

WHAT DO YOU THINK WE WILL HAVE??

This is such an exciting time for us, we will try to keep everyone updated!

And IT Begins......

It begins.......The days of fun summer nights of swimming, golfing, movies, and more; FREE weekends to do whatever we want (or do to NOTHING at all), lunch dates with Brett, and surprise visits at work, ARE OVER!! And I welcome the days of a tired, sore, and possibly grumpy husband (let's hope not), solo dinners, and me trying to find ANYTHING to keep myself entertained and busy while Brett is gone. It's football time. Brett starts fall camp today!! Even though I will hardly see him in the next three weeks, and won't have a free weekend for the next 5 months, I AM EXCITED! I LOVE FOOTBALL SEASON!

** I love watching Brett play (I've never watched football like I do now! I actually pay attention!!) Plus, it's his senior year! I hope he rocks it!!

** Having a game to look forward to almost every weekend! Sure makes the work week fly.

** Going to the games with Brett's family and getting to see them almost every weekend

** Friday night Firesides

** Spending time with the other wives

** Road trips

** Nerves, excitement, screaming, yelling, and losing my voice

** The possibility of a Bowl Game-- can't help but hope for and look forward to that fun vacation!!


I love it! I'm so glad the season is finally here! In the meantime....I will be available for any girls night, movie night, craft night, dinner date, etc....so please girls, let's hang!!
