Aww Ginny what a wonderful birthday. I'm so glad Sheri had a great day. That picture of the girls crying is just beautiful. You are such a great mom.

I hope you're able to get some sleep tonight. I know you need it!

Glad everyone made it home safe. And congrats to Andrew.

Thank you Heather. It was totally everything a Mom could ever want. I am well rested today. But I do have to work till 730. Then only till 2 tomorrow. I'll get all caught up on sleep another day.

Totally cool about Andrew. He only joined soccer last year not having played since 3rd grade with parkboard when you learn to run the masses. He wanted to join because that was what Austin was doing. So he was JV last year and this but this year he is a starter on JV which is totally cool. Austin played because he loved the friends. He never made varsity but he was captain of JV. He would have played varsity this year but he knows his limits and knew football was what he needed. So good for Andrew finding something he likes to do.

That is why I love my girls. I think they are way special.
I could so easily be at a park somewhere with a good book. Have a good day.

So glad the birthday was so much fun! Love the report!!!

Thank you D. I knew my friends on Dis would love seeing my girls because I love seeing my girls.

I sure hope that a client doesn't walk in any time soon because my eyes and nose are all red from tearing up at your pictures. Sweet sweet family you have!

They are such sweet girls. (they do have their moments. Just like their mom). Sheri won't let me show her the pic. It makes her cry everytime. I tell her that is good for her. Makes her appreciate what she has. Truth be told, I cry everytime I see it too. I am having all the girls put their pics on snapfish so I can make Sheri an album. Sandi also got her a Princess album and princess magnets for the fridge.

Have a good day everyone. And I promise this is the weekend I'm getting my treats in the mail.

Ginny

Hey Dee how are you doing??? haven't seen any updates lately!

Hey Dee how are you doing??? haven't seen any updates lately!

Hi! I'm around. Been doing good. Just been a little preoccupied lately. Doing things around the house. Going through pictures from my Wedding & such because I want to start my scrapbook! I scrapbook a lot, and have been putting this one off for some reason. It's going to be a lot of work. Probably the biggest one I have ever done! But I love it & it keeps me busy. LOL! I have a Drs appt tomorrow. Nothing big, just the regular monthly appt. I'm 21 weeks now! I feel like it's going by so fast all of a sudden. The baby is beginning to move around more frequently now. Still can't feel it from the outside yet though. Can't wait for that! Anyway. That is about all I've been up to lately. Hope you all are doing well!

I use to love to sit in a warm tub when I PG for my kids and watch them move. Gwendolyn did it the most....probably beacuse she was the only one I carried to term. At the end you could make our her foot, hand, rump it was soooo neat! Dayne was a month early and Ashton a month & a half; so I felt them more than seen them--my stomach would just roll around it is so wonderful to experience all of that...ENJOY!

Feeling the baby move was one of my favorite things about being pregnant! Enjoy it. That's one thing you'll miss (among the tons of things you won't miss)! I can't believe you're 21 weeks already. It is going fast.

That is so awesome the baby moving part. I was so young and naive with Sandi when she first started kicking around I just figured it to be gas. You must remember this was way before ultrasounds and the like. I didn't have my mom, grandma or mother in law close to me and you just didn't make long-distance calls so I had to just 'wing' it. Every once in a while my grandma would drive over and spend the night with us (we had to take her to the Shrine for wrestling night) so she could fill me in on all my questions. But dumb me when my water broke in the night I wasn't even sure that was what it was. I figured it would gush cause all my friends said so. Liars.

Your time will really go fast. Good luck on the scrapbook. I will take all hints. I'm doing one for Aust for his senior year.

 

[deedeew80]

Feeling the baby move around is pretty neat! However, when it first started happening I thought it was gas! Then it began getting a little different & more frequent and I could finally tell the difference! The only problem I'm having now is indigestion! It's horrible! It use to happen just at night, now it happens all throughout the day! I'm constantly chewing on tums! I try to watch what I eat, but that doesn't even make a difference. Just another one of those bothersome pg symptoms! However, I am a BIG whimp and cannot handle pain for anything! My mom is always telling me she is dreading when I go into labor! LOL! Like I said, I'm a whimp! I think I over did it today. My back & legs are killing me! I did a lot of cleaning today & laundry. More than I usually do. Even took the cushions of the couch & vaccuum (never know how to spell that word!) the whole couch & everywhere else in the house! I knew I was going to regret it later. But someone has to do it! I can't believe it's the weekend already! I think this week flew by! Hope everyone has a great weekend! Long holiday weekend!!!

DOUBLE POST! SEEMS TO HAPPENING ALOT LATELY!

Have a great weekend!

 

[longing2Batdisney]

I thought it was gas for Gwendolyn too!
take it easy for the rest of the weekend! soak and put your feet up and if you can sleep on your left side w/a pillow between your knees...you would not believe the difference it makes...hope you feel better and you need to learn to do things a little everyday...

Have a great weekend!

Isn't that the truth. Sleeping on the left vs. right makes a huge difference. I learned that when I was pg. And still today if I overeat before bed if I'll lay on the left side I have no problems. Crazy. I am thinking of a facial tomorrow afternoon when I get off work. I really find I love them and are more relaxing to me than a whole body massage. Don is off tomorrow. Lucky him. He is getting the trim on the house ready to paint. He hopes to get it painted this weekend if the rain holds off.

Good Morning! Ginny
I wish you and all a wonderful day! and holiday weekend!
We have a few errands to run and we are going to the Global Wildlife today. I have to go pay the deposit for our upcoming meeting of old friends (most from grammar school). So, we are going to ride a tour I hope the giraffes are out today!

have a great one!
Dee, I hope you were able to get a good nights rest!

Ok, I lied. I couldn't wait until tonight to see the pix and it is quiet in the nursery right now. I can't go out and see my patients now anyway. My eyes are red from crying. I LOVE the pictures. It looks like ya'll had so much fun. It really is good to see how close your girls are and how much fun ya'll all have together.

Wasn't that the sweetest ever? I cry everytime I look. We really did have a fun time and it was nice to have a mid week getaway. Thank you for your comment. It means a lot to me.

You are getting so close to leaving. Lucky.

What a fun day for you to be having. It is probably going to rain today. And of course we have football tonite. My best friend is from 2nd grade.

Friday night football in Willard. We have had a hard first two games with next week even harder. We played Rolla last week (our coach was there the past 4 years and completly turned their program around and took them to state) This week we played Ozark, they have been our district champs the past 5 years and was 3 at state last year. Next week we play Webb City who has been first in state the past 8 years.

Last nights game ended 30-13. Our defense played most of the game. The offense was not on their game last night. Our qb was replaced at the half with the back up. The back-up actually did much better. Austin had 2 sacks, some awesome tackles and got to be the place kicker last night. Those 2 years of soccer payed off. He has a great right foot.

Our new stadium is really nice. It is so great to have enough seating for everyone.

The opposing team made a stupid play at 4th and 20 to go. They set it up to kick to the offense and tried to kick a field goal. It missed. The refs made a stupid call that no one figured out so they got to do it again. They made the same play and it was good. Then the kicker/qb that did it did a chest-bump to one of our players and a fight ensued. We got 2 personal fowls, they got one. The time keeper let the clock run out and shouldn't have so we still had like 18 seconds to finish the half. So they got a free kick and missed then we finished the half with no further trouble. You hate to see good kids get in trouble. The only one really penalized was one from our team cause he came from the sidelines to get in on it. So he couldn't play the rest of the night. Austin's best bud Joel was the kid the offense chest-bumped. He doesn't take that lightly. He is 6'4" and 215. His main sport is wrestling so he is one solid muscle. It was always the same kid on the opposing team that was making trouble. In every sport we play with them they play mean. Always trying to hurt one of our players. Needless to say there is quite a rivalry.

Our cheerleaders all had pink ribbons last night for breast cancer awareness. And the chamber of commerce had a drawing and one of Sheri's friends won $5000.00 buck. Needless to say she was one happy girl. I had not seen her since high school. She came down and gave us big hugs. About 6 of Sheri's high school friends llive at Willard and Sheri never even knew. It is so weird to be in that area and not to have seen them before.

Austin is getting senior pix today. I'm anxious to see how he does.

I did go see my booty shop lady on Wednesday. She did a fine job and I thanked her for getting Aust in last week. So all is good now. BTW, her son who was born on Sheri's BD last year is named Shamus. Good name in my opinion.

Everyone have a great day and good weekend.
