Babies, Babies, Babies

As I mentioned in a previous post, I am going to be an auntie to a little girl in June....whelp, not anymore. Hailey Kay is actually a HE. What?! I am as shocked as you are. My sis had an ultrasound appointment last week and called to tell me that Hailey "grew a weenie." Being the jokester that she is, I immediately called her out on her lil joke. A lot of no ways, liar, and you swears later, I am indeed having a nephew, Blake Robert to be exact. And you know what? It feels right. I was super happy about a niece but I really thought she was having a boy and it turns out that I was right. I guessed correctly about sister's best friend, my sis and my bestie Geana. So I am sticking to my guess that Bestie Lisa (Bestie Geana's twin) is having a girl. She'll be finding out on Feb. 5th so we shall see!

Oh! I also found out that my little bro is expecting with his GF Clarissa! She's due September 25th. My guess is a girl for them as well seeing as how badly my bro wants a boy..heehee Excuse me, my wallet just had a heart attack...LOL I'm super happy about all the babies and although times are a bit hard financially speaking, it'll all work out and I'll help get these babies all kitted out so they have all that they need to get on out here. I thought that last year was the year of babies but this year has even more, yay!

I have a six month old....seriously??

This went by way too fast!

I had this whole post that keeps getting deleted so I will just leave it at this:

Happy Six Month Birthday Bella! *MUAH*

The Liz Logelin Foundation

Bestie Jenn e-mailed me a link to a blog last month and it has really, really touched me. I would like to pass it on to anyone who reads my blog. It's a sad one and will make you cry but it is also very inspiring. I added a widget on my page, The Liz Logelin Foundation, that you will understand once you have read the blog. Please add it/ donate/pass it on. This guy is amazing. He is someone who makes me believe that there are still good people in this world. Here's the link to his blog: http://www.mattlogelin.com/
I honestly didn't expect to get as drawn in and invovled as I have but I think about these two almost every day. I am glued to my computer screen reading about the day to day things they do and all the feelings that go along with this tragic situation. It makes me go home and kiss my husband a lil more and be so thankful for all that I have in my life. It leaves me with a desire to be a better person, to help others. I hope it does for you too.

The Hubby

Soooo, since I have learned a new trick (posting pictures) I have decided to introduce you to the last (but certainly not the least) member of my lil familia. That's my husband Joe, Me and Bella on Christmas Day 2008. Bella didn't feel like looking at the camera but I love this picture anway. The Hubster is 25 going on 26 in February and is the best husband a girl could ever have. Cook? Clean? Take care of Bella? Kind? Thoughtful? Funny? Yup! He's all those things and so much more. I don't know what I'd do without him.

I'm still alive, I swear!

Yes, I know, I suck at this like the time I tried to give myself these cute beachy waves I saw in a magazine and ended up looking like a deranged Shirley Temple (note: I do believe my Nana almost fell off her chair laughing at me, jerk). Where have I been? I have no idea. I mean, I've been busy but the holidays are over and things have calmed down. Well, they have calmed down a little bit anyway.

Anywho, I was reading Bestie Jenn's SIL's blog (so funny, love those kids) and noticed that I had been tagged to post my fourth picture in my picture file. Seeing as how I am at work and have no idea how to post a pic, let's see how this works out, shall we? OK, so it posted above what I'm writing lol at least I figured it out. This is my daughter Bella. Bestie Jenn took this picture a month or so ago at my house. It's one of my favorites. Bestie Jenn has talent. I am so proud of myself for figuring this out on my own lol I will be posting a lot more pics now. I am now tagging (cuz those are the rules) : Brenda, Katie, Jenn and Brandy.

Bestie Jenn just started the 30 day shred...I also bought the video and need to get on it! This post-baby mush will not tone itself! Come on motivation!
