So Stressed....

I just decided to call the store, USA baby, where Jeff and I bought the little Guy's furniture to just see if I could get a round about deli every date. When I called, I received a message stating the store had closed and filed for bankruptcy. At this point I am freaking out. We spent $2,000 on furniture and now we have no furniture and lost $2,000. I called Jeff and he called our bank and they said they will refund the charge. THANK GOODNESS!! Now, Jeff and I will be spending another day searching for the perfect baby furniture.

Birthing Class...

Tonight we had our first birthing class from 7-930 PM. We learned a lot, well, Jeff learned more, I believe! Us woman read all about Birth in our Parent and Pregnancy Magazines. Jeff learned all the ways to be a support person throughout the labor. He is full aware that he is not to eat in front of me and he is to brush his teeth before returning. We have 2 more weeks of classes. It should be very informative.

Daisey got caught...Chocolate Face

I found this picture the other day. This picture brings back memories because this is when Jeff and I first met.

One of the dogs was getting in the trash. Of course, We both blames each others dog. I knew it was not Mya because she never did that in my apartment.

We woke up one morning and Daisey had Chocolate Face and there was trash everywhere! Little Daisey got caught red handed! If you look close, Daisey has chocolate all around her whiskers. After this, there was no more blaming.

Quit Smoking...

Wow, it is hard to do!
I officially quit 11/1/08. Today is 5 months, and I feel so healthy. Everyone always says I had no choice but to quit, but that is very untrue. You always have a choice, I just put my child first and knew the right thing to do was to quit. It was so hard with Jeff still smoking, believe me, extremely hard. I still get cravings at times, but I know I am strong enough to say NO! I made a promise to myself and God that I will never buy another pack of cigarettes, and I plan to keep it.

Jeff officially quit 2/1/09, I believe. After our Vegas trip sometime. So it has been 2 months for him. I am very proud of him, because I truly felt he was never going to kick the habit 100%. He is starting to smoke a cigar now and again, but I can live with that every so often.

Sunday Fun....

Our 'fat dog' is not so fat anymore!! She loves going swimming in our lake behind our house. Today we went and took the dogs for a long walk to our community pool. On our way back, Jeff let Mya go and she chased some ducks into the lake. I thought for sure she was going to get to tired, and need to be rescued, but she did good. It is such good exercise for her.

She is bringing the ball back to Jeff.

Daisey on the other hand, she is a baby. She really wanted that ball, but would barely get her paws wet.

Bath time, that lake is pretty dirty. Mya had such a good time. She loves when Jeff pays her attention!




Daisey is just as filthy.

Daisey after her bath! She is so ugly after a bath. She looks like a drowned rat!

Before Picture...

This is our back yard before all the digging starts.

It's approved...

Today our HOA approved our pool. YEA!! Now the next step is getting all the permits from the city and county, which may take a few weeks.

Daisey watching TV...

I walked to the bathroom and when I got back, I found Crazy Das laying in her new favorite spot on our couch with the remote under her paw! It really looked like she was watching TV changing the channel!

3D/4D Sonogram....

Jeff and I are outside the Storks View door. It was so amazing to see our little boy facial features and him moving all around. It seems he already had a personality in there. Hiding his face, putting his legs on his head, and the best, smiling at us!!

He weighs 15 ounces and is 12.6 inches long. He is very long for only 27 weeks. He also has real big feet, measuring 3 inches, so be careful if anyone buys him shoes, big foot is coming!!

This is the top of his head with his foot on it.





















this is two feet and legs with his arm and elbow.

Look at the top of his head, its hair!!

His side Profile!

Yes, he is smiling at us!! So cute!

Our Home...

This is our home and it is so beautiful.

Missing her Daddy....

Jeff and I went over our friends house for dinner. Nancy took this picture of Daisey curled up on Jeff's boots. So cute!

Mya and Daisey's nicknames...

Jeff and I love making nicknames and songs for our dogs.

Everyone who knows Mya, she gained a lot of weight adjusting to living in a home and not an apartment. She weighed 83 lbs last year. She is now about 74 lbs.

Pool....

Jeff has decided to put a pool in at our house. It is very exciting, but stressful for me. All I am thinking about is having a torn up back yard, noise every morning and a new born baby. AHH!! I know it will all work.

I will be posting step by step in building a pool process. I believe it will be informative.

Today Jeff signed the contract for our Pool. Just waiting on the HOA to approve.

Slyders....

Jeff and I met our friends, Jason and Claudia at the beach to have Oysters. We had a great time. they all drank and I ate!! I had steamed shrimp and chicken tacos, They all ate lots of Oysters!! We will go again soon because their Key Lime Pie was too yummy!!

Happy St. Patrick's Day...

Daisey had green bows! she is sticking her tounge out at me!!

And the name is.....

We have decided on:


Conner William Salch

We still have time, but this is both of our favorites. It still could change.

Nursery furniture....

Jeff and I picked out the Nursery Furniture today. It will take 10 to 12 weeks to come in.

Painting the Nursery....

Jeff and I decided to paint the nursery 2 separate colors so it was not so dark, or bright. 2 walls are a light green and 2 walls are like a sage green. It looks very good. I taped and Jeff painted. It took him a whole day because he is a perfectionist.

And Yes that is Mya, the noisy dog who every time we paint, gets paint on her!

The little guys bedding...

It has been a battle for Jeff and I to agree on bedding. We finally agreed, and chose a Jungle or Safari Theme. It has really grown on me and I like it a lot now. I love how it is colorful and not just blue or green.

So Cute...

On my birthday, I went out to shop in the morning. I got home and Jeff and Daisey were passed out together on our bed. It was so cute. She loves her daddy so much.
