Hello, there! Yep, I'm still here, just been slacking off on blogging. Summer is pretty much in full effect over here so I've been really busy! My niece came to town for the weekend and brought my two favorite great-nephews! (OKAY, my ONLY two, but whatevs!) They love their Aunt Tonya! I have been having a great time with them so far.. They headed to Miami today, but will be back tomorrow and I can't wait! I also realized that I miiight need a refresher course on little kids and hubs DEFINITELY needs a kiddie course. Breakfast this morning was quite interesting with little hands reaching onto plates of piping hot pancakes and I was trying to work the griddle, make plates and make sure a feisty 2 year old was NOT jumping out of the chair to hit the very hard tile floor.. Also answering all ELEVENTY-MILLION questions his 5 year old brother was throwing at me while doing said cooking and watching.. Hubs was helping me until he decided to set a plate in front of 2 year old and attempt to pour syrup on the pancakes!! DUDE! WHO is gonna feed him those, certainly not himself?! *DAZED AND CONFUSED LOOK* Then a simple *Why?* OMG! OK, Tonya calm down, this is his first rodeo.. SO... I say back the plate away, sit next to him and FEED HIM!! After a look of fear, hubs did a pretty good job feeding Max.. Until Max decided to start spitting food out on the floor, LOL!! Then all bets were off, hubs was DONE!  It was a sticky fun morning.. The dogs especially like Max.. He isn't very good at NOT dropping his food and he always leaves some on his hands or face before somebody can catch him (he only knows RUN, not walk!) to wash his face off! I forgot how tiring little kids are, OMG!!! I told hubs, this is what our future is gonna be like, are you ready? He smiled and said..YEP!  In BABY news, still chugging along.. Just waiting on our appointment June 1st and then June 11th to find out the gender!! Super excited.. I have had friends send me boy stuff and girl stuff, so everyone is pretty much split on what they think it is, lol.. I told them to STOP until we know, but C'est la vie.... It's fun to look at the clothes and imagine we will have someone to fill them in a few short months! I am so excited to get my "bump shots" each week, I think once we have about 4-6 more weeks under our belts, we might get a really good showing bump shot! That will be awesome... After reading Jesse's blog today, it made me realize that we are NOT taking advantage of what we can to be even more involved in this pregnancy! I am embarrassed to say we have NOT skyped with Christy during this pregnancy...YET!! I can't believe it! That would be the perfect way for hubs to hear the hearbeat from doppler and for us to catch up instead of texting and talking on the phone.. Plus it will include hubs more, since right now I report whatever is going on to him.. I feel really bad about that now.. I plan to rectify that TODAY. And since it is early enough, I hope he will only have awesome memories of this experience! I don't know if he realized it but I am going to "man up" and tell him I NOTICED and then fix it.. So, that's my weekend confession and update! Til next time!
