I drove over to Frostproof on Friday and then rode to Springhill with Dani for Liam's birthday. It was a wonderful time. Renia's little boys are hilarious and it is so much fun to get to hang out with them since I don't get to see them very often. I was made aware of just how much I had been missing Renia and Dani and Aunt Wilma when Dani and I ( Read more... )

I've been feeling a little big and heavy lately. I get up about 2 times every night to pee and its a chore trying to work my big belly to the edge of the bed. Also all my joints have been hurting and I can't get rid of my cold. But yesterday I had a really good day. Ryan, Desi, and I went and got library cards. I love libraries. I love the way they ( Read more... )

Ryan and I went and took a tour of the hospital's OB unit yesterday. They walk you through and show you where everything is and answer any questions you might have. I realized as we were walking through that my due date is in 3 months and 4 days. It is kind of surprising how fast everything has gone, but I've been told that the last month is the ( Read more... )

I just wanted to let everybody know that Ryan and I are having a blast. I'm starting to get just the tiniest bit homesick, but we leave on Monday. I'll get some pictures up when we get home and I can resize them.

So Ryan has finally suggested a middle name that I don't think he was joking about. He really likes Fiona Lily. I love the name Lily for many reasons, (it reminds me of the many beautiful flowers and Tiger Lily from Peter Pan) but I'm not sure that I am ready to give it my stamp of approval yet. I have been enjoying trying out different names and ( Read more... )

Ryan and I had our official ultrasound today. Apparently we are having a girl, not a boy. It's weird because what the tech showed us looked almost exactly like the pictures that we saw with Mason. At this point I'm confident that we are having a healthy baby, but that's about it. I guess we will see when the little bundle gets here. I think we are ( Read more... )

I'm procrastinating because revision is hard. Tomorrow is my second to last creative writing class and our finally project is to revise at least two of our poems or stories. Revision is hard and I am feeling lazy. I am also wanting to be reading the new Harry Potter book instead, but I left it at Ryan's house on purpose so that I couldn't read it ( Read more... )

THis week on poetrythursday, the prompt was write a humurous poem. Instead of doing that I revised my poem from last week, and I must say I'm becoming more and more happy with this poem the more that I work with it. Let me know what you think ( Read more... )

So, how's everybody doing? I haven't heard even the tiniest peep from anyone since this weekend. I've gotta say that it was alot of fun to get to see everyone. Renia your little boys are about the cutest things I've ever seen! Dani, you need to come visit me more often. I miss you ( Read more... )

The Poetry Thursday prompt for this week was to use their random word generator and write a poem. I looked every time I went on-line and was struck by many words: balm, awry, seed, ripple, umber, and acidic to name a few. However the only word that I used in my poem is seed. I'm not sure anything will come of this poem, mostly because it's very ( Read more... )
