Ironic

On my way to work yesterday I got behind a REALLY SLOW car. As we approched a stoplight I look at their licence plate and it has '24' on it and I notice it's a Nascar plate. I chuckle to myself. Then realize that the entire back trunk is loaded with other Nascar decals.....Ironic that this guy drives 30 in a 45??

Another bedtime conversation

After the couples in the bottom two were announced last night while I was watching dancing with the stars.

DH: No way....they were both pretty good. (He had been on the computer so I didn't really know he was paying attention)
Me: It all depends on the people voting at home
DH: They can't vote the swimmer off...she's good

TV: Natalie is going home

DH: NO!!! Are you kidding me! Michael Irvine is still in this and he was no good. She was so much better!
ME; Yeah that sucks...she was pretty good.
DH: (Still rather upset) That's not fair, she was so much better...who else was on the show...there were others who were worse.

We then turn the TV off and go to get ready for bed. The conversation continues as I brush my teeth

DH: Seriously that sucks....why did she get kicked off, that's not fair.
ME: (trying to hide my smile) Honey, did you pick up a phone and vote? Did you do your part to keep her there? Maybe your 10 votes could have keep her there?
DH: Michale Irvine, Michael Irvine is still there and she's gone! That makes me mad.

I continue to brush my teeth then I hear this from the bedroom

DH: What was her name again?
ME: Natalie Caughlen....Olympic swimmer...
DH: Yeah...She should still be on the show...


Look what I have created :)

Update on baby stuff

I haven't posted a picture in awhile so here is an older one.

Me at 26.5 weeks...(I'm 29 now so I need to take more soon!! man time flies)


We also got our first big baby item! The UPS man brought it one night and I had it out of the box and put together before Bob got home.



This is Bob showing how not to push a baby in a stroller :)


Besides working too much, I have not been up to much. One highlight was going up to Indy to a baby shower. Some of my high school friends held a shower for me and I got to see all of them, meet two of the new babies added to our group, some of Bob's family, friends from Danville, and my sister from TX. My sister was a surprise. She flew up and was supposed to be in Indy on Friday around 12:00. Unfortunately the planes did not cooperate and she arrived at 12:00 on Saturday (You can check out her blog for other details of her 'worst flight ever'.) I really appreciated everyone who traveled to come to the shower and see me!!
Here are a few pictures....they really outdid themselves and made me feel so special!
(and yes....there were a few frogs there....don't worry, the baby room is not all green with frogs everywhere....but you had to know that there would be frogs in his life somewhere!)

Star Power

Tonights conversation (Between me and DH-Dear Husband) while watching Dancing with the Stars.

DH: Do you think Donnie has the home votes to survie?
Me: yeah...he's Donnie 'freaking' Osmond...he has a huge at home following.
DH: I've never really heard of him
Me: You never heard of the Osmonds? Donnie and Marie?
DH: No...I had never heard of him before this show.
Me: Are you kidding?
DH: No
Me: huh...

Vacation in Atlanta

A few weekends ago we went to Atlanta for a mini vacation. Bob's parents had gotten us a free two night stay and dinner at Morton's Steak house in Atlanta. While we were there we went to the Coca-Cola Museum and to the Georgia Aquarium. Here are a few pictures from our trip.


Here is a picture of me on the Coca-Cola American Idol Couch. And contrary to what some of my friends think, I did not jump any security ropes to sit on the couch.


This is Bob having a drink of Coke with Mr. Pembrook, the pharmacist who invented the syrup of the famous beverage.


The Hotel we stayed in was very nice. There was a phone in the bathroom!!


They even had bathrobes in the closet!!!!



We went to lunch at Johnny Rockets and these were my french fries! (I didn't take a picture of my dinner at Morton's, but it was yummy!!!!)



The Aquarium was amazing!!! These pictures don't even come close to showing how big everything was. We got to stand on a people mover and go under a football field size tank through this tunnel.


There was a viewing window larger than a movie screen that you could sit and watch all the fish in the football size tank.


Bob even got to pet a shark!


We had a lot of fun. Thanks to my In-Laws for the tickets!!!

Politicaly Un-Correct - but still kinda funny

If you were to build a clinic for amputee patients, can you think of a type of cartoonish character that is just wrong to put on the sign out front? I think the clinic is part of the hospital because it is right next door. So it's not some privately owned office. I drive by this sign every time I go to my Dr. appointment and wonder how it makes other people feel.

Did you guess some characters yet?

It's called Amputee Clinic and there is a three foot picture of a Pirate on there. Seriously...a full fledge , eye patch, hook hand, and peg legged pirate....he's got it all. Is it just me or is that wrong?

Last one.....

The kitchen was one of the last areas that we finished.


Here are my favorite pictures....



Thanks Mom for coming to visit and working so hard on cleaning and decorating!!!
