Weather: Doing:  Feeling:

For an update.  Dontcha think?  No, I did notfall off the face of the earth.  Just life.  I think I mentioned that we started school early so we are trying to get that done and whatnot.  Just normal life.  This is my ‘privelege’ time and as you can see, I do not get a whole lot.  LOLOL

Gotta do hair for a wedding this weekend.

Still trying to sell our home.  Hopefully that happens soon.  We need space AND the drive is killing me.  I know, I need some cheese with my wine.

Onto the pregnancy, things seem to be going well so far.  Just had a quad blood test done and then in a few weeks Igo to IU to a High Risk OB to make sure things are on trac with my previous histories and whanot.  I am praying for a healthy pregancy.  They will probably do an in depth ultrasound there and I will be about 18 weeks so the girls and I (even Allan) are sortof hoping we can determine the gender of this bean.  We will see.  If not, my regular OB will do an ultrasound at 20 weeks regardless so we should know hopefully in a month whether this be a boy bean or a girl bean.  Gonna put my voting thingie up…curious to see what YOU all think…Boy…or Girl?  Vote already!

<<<<Ovah The-ah!  To the left…<<<<<<<

On another front, for our anniversary, I was seriously thinking ALlan had forgotten.  I truly did.  But with so much going on and this being his busy time of year Igrew up and got over it…somewhat.  Then I sortof found out by accident he was taking me to dinner.  How nice!  He took me to Melting Pot.  One of our fave places and so swanky and romantic.  It takes a couple of hours to eat there.  ANd I noticed he was in a hurry.  Well I knew my babysitter had to work the next day so I started getting anxious as well.  Well, we leave and he drives toward downtown Indy and I keep telling him to go home, the sitter has to work, the babies, ect…We drive for a while and he pulls into a place and I am like NO WAY!!!!!!!!  We can’t!  I have nothing to wear!  And he just grins and says, “Yup, you do!”  He took me here…  He had the girls packing my bags for two days and sneaking around.  I had NO CLUE!!!!!!!!!  He had roses in the room and on the bed, champaigne (fake) and glasses, chocolate, ect! 

Wasn’t that sweet????????

I told him he definitely earned brownie points for this one.  And boy did I sure need it.  We had a wonderful time.  WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, gotta get supper started.  I need to check the Nester first though…

Saturday, the 9th of August 3 years ago, Silas Darnell was born.  What a DOOZIE that was.  He and I both almost died.  He had a stint at Riley as well.  But he is MORE than fine now.  Deinitely making up for it!  LOL  Happy birthday my little man!  I cannot believe he is 3!!!
We took him and the gang to the Children’s Museum that morning.  Then to chuck E Cheese (ho JOY) then Toys R Us to get a CARS toy.  Nothing else but CARS for him.  LOL.

Today, August 12, one year ago today, Pat died.  We went this morning to her grave and the girls and I spent some time there.  Last night all I could think of was her and Floyd and Leah and whatnot.  The christmas before we found out she had ovarian/uterine cancer.  She lasted 9 months.  Sheesh.  I remember calling my mom who was still in the hpspital herself from us finding her on July 3rd last year, saying, “Oh man.  I hate to hear that, Monica.  She sure put up a good fight.”

Patsy  September 2, 1945- August 12, 2007

I miss you Patsy.

I am hoping this bean is a girl to be honest.  I want to name her after my Mom, Pat and best friend, Becca.  The name will be Shiloh Pamela Gail if this is indeedy a girl…

 Our 16th anniversary is this friday, August 15th.  Hard to believe.  Wow.

My mom’s 55th birthday is coming up on Saturday.  August 16th. 

I miss you too, Mommy.  Something Awful.  I wish I could talk to you again.

Last year she just got home from the hospital and SHekinah got her braces on the day of the funeral for Pat, our anniversary was the day before (our 15th, the day of Pat’s showing) and we dropped (she just got her braces off this week btw, her teeth look nice!) Shekinah off to stay with mom for a week to help her and so someone would be with her 24/7 since I just had a baby 8 weeks before and could only make a couple of visits to nurse mom a day…this made mom and me feel better and Shekinah was glad to spend that time with my mom as well.

I feel like I am blabbing and not saying much at all.  Been pretty distressed truth be known.  I called Floyd this morning to see how he was doing.  We kindof laughed and I told him I have pretty much been in a coma the past month.  Hormones.  Gotta be.

Oh, took the boys to get some professional pics done…wanna see?  Go Here and check them out

Planning a Ladies Tea or Luncheon (check out THIS site!) for the ladies at our church in Bloomington in a few weeks.  Shekinah has a birthday coming up as well on September 13th.  She will be 15.  I am going to take her to a tea room I think then let a couple friends come over all night.  No party this year.  LOL

We are starting school today.  Half day.  After lunch.  So I better get… I am gonna go eat some soup I think.  Bye for now.
