The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 3

I am so glad it all went well - you are crazy - like you wouldn't have been the world's BIGGEST basketcase waiting for that ultrasound!!!

And I must ask again why you need the ultrasound to tell you that your baby is a girl?!?!?

LOL, just to confirm that the Queen knows all! I'm so tempted to go to one of the 3-D ultrasound places. I'm going to go crazy waiting for April 18th!

 

[julia & nicks mom]

Hey Dawn -

aren't you due on August 16?

I would like to HIGHLY reccomend August 11!!!

 

[bengalbelle]

YEAH!!!! and I'm with Kate why do you have to wait for the ultrasound...."we" know it's a girl

Hmmm....I might have to start taking bets!

 

[bengalbelle]

Hey Dawn -

aren't you due on August 16?

I would like to HIGHLY reccomend August 11!!!

No, August 16th is the day Christopher starts school. I'm due on September 3rd, so the earliest I could schedule it would be August 28th. I just don't want to have it on the 30th because that's Brian's sister's birthday.

Of course Christopher was 12 days early so this one may decide to make an early appearance as well.

I just checked Amy and Kevin's flight and it is on time!!!

That's great news!

The saddest part of my job is putting together funerals and funeral bulletins. The lady who was in the hospital last week...lost her valiant struggle and passed away on Friday afternoon. She was a fount of information on most of the people in the congregation and she will be missed!! Her husband has been an amazing caretaker...and he thinks he let her down somehow .
Any way ever since having Cassidy I have been a crier!!! I suspect the tear ducts will get a workout this afternoon....the memorial is this afternoon...it is one of those we close the office down so all can attend and as a sign of respect.

So..... because of some glitches in a website ( ) I woke up at 2:50am for nothing because the reservation wouldn't work; then, I couldn't fall back asleep for ANYTHING.... so I'm going on about 1.5 hours of sleep today. Thankfully I dont have class until evening, but I need to study and my eyes are absolutely killing me

I got what I wanted/needed though, for the trip (eventually)!

Here's a little Disney humor to start off your day.......(I hope this doesn't offend. I changed the ending to make it as soft as I could.)




The Seven Dwarfs go to the Vatican, and because they are THE seven dwarfs, they are unsherd in to see the Pope.

"Dopey slept with a penguin!"......


"Dopey slept with a penguin!"......

I just told DH and he ... Men - they just don't get humour!

 

[bengalbelle]

here is a joke -

a mom was playing on the computer with her daughter and the computer asked for her password and the daughter told her mom that her password was

mickeyminniegoofyplutodonald

the mom asked why her password was so long and her daughter said

it had to be a least five characters

Cute!

Well my b'day is off to a great start! I got the Barry Manilow new CD, HP Goblet of Fire DVD, a new pair of sunglasses, and a gorgeous silk floral shirt in yellows, pinks, and orange. It's beautiful! Kids were all excited and of course opened my presents for me.

Off to get my car inspection and our new car tags. Then home to make the cake and then dinner out! Yippee!

Thanks to all for the b'day wishes. I really appreciate it!

The Seven Dwarfs go to the Vatican, and because they are THE seven dwarfs, they are unsherd in to see the Pope.


Dopey leads the pack.


"Dopey, my son," says the Pope. "What can I do for you?"


Dopey asks, "Excuse me your Excellency, but are there any dwarf nuns in Rome?"


The Pope wrinkles his brow at the odd question, thinks for a moment and answers, "No, Dopey, there are no dwarf nuns in Rome."


In the background a few of the dwarfs start giggling.


Dopey turns around and gives them a glare, silencing them.

Dopey turns back and says "Your Worship, are there any dwarf nuns in all of Europe?"


The Pope, puzzled now, again thinks for a moment and then answers, "No, Dopey, there are no dwarf nuns in Europe."


This time, all of the other dwarfs burst into laughter.


Once again, Dopey turns around and silences them, with an angry glare.

Dopey turns back and says, "Mr. Pope! Are there ANY dwarf nuns anywhere in the world?"

"I'm sorry, my son, there are no dwarf nuns anywhere in the world."

The other dwarfs collapse into a heap, rolling and laughing, pounding the floor, tears rolling down their cheeks, as they began chanting.....
"Dopey slept with a penguin!"......


"Dopey slept with a penguin!"......

LOL, it took me a minute...

Here's the VERY preliminary first draft of our graduation announcement. I have a few things in mind I want to tweak and add to it, but you get the idea. It probably goes without saying, but Kate's recent designs (which were influenced by... Kristen's? please correct me if i'm wrong ) really inspired this. It's so simple, but I kind of like it

It sounds so official now!!! I love it!

Morning all - it appears my wedding card went offline last night so I've rehosted it with photobucket... teach me for being lazy and not uploading it there in the first place!

Anyway - for all those of you who are "caught up" you won't see I've updated my old message so here it is for you again:

To those of you who are catching up and have now seen this twice I'm sory for the deja vue

Absolutely beautiful and truly one of a kind!!!!!

I have never heard that before and you are the second person today I have heard say that - where did that come from?!!?

I am not sure when they start but I think it is after labor day -

although since I am the world's WORST mom and just realized last week that I never got a copy of Nick's birth certificate - he might not be going - I have to go downtown to get the certificate but with him being so sick I haven't had a chance to go - I told them I was waiting on it and they said they would hold his spot but I need to get there soon!!

I know I am kind of far to join you for lunch but I'll be there in spirit! Kyle starts pre-school on Sept 5!!!

Ok I missed it tonight, I had to work. I know who I was thinking would get fired, who was it or when does it air again?

I didn't see that anyone answered this yet so if you're reading this and you haven't watched the episode yet, don't look down.




















Brent was fired. He let his mouth overload him in the boardroom.

Have to share this photo of the kids making Christmas cookies. I was hoping to have it as Christmas card photo but chose one that you could see their faces instead. Got the aprons at Kohl's.

That picture is adorable!
