Sonogram

Some people call my pregnancy a paper pregnancy. That is what it is. A pregnancy on paper. And I found this photo of "my" sonogram. Enjoy :)

Isn't she beautiful?

Gift card anyone?

Is it really OCT 25? WOW! I guess I better get on my Christmas shopping. I was thinking of getting folks gift cards so if you have a favorite, email me what it is. I just don't think I will have a lot of time to put a lot of time and energy into shopping this year. To be honest, my house is a mess. The dog needs a bath. There is laundry to be done. There are clothes that need to be bagged and taken to Goodwill. Gracie's quilt STILL isn't complete. Ladybugs are cut out but not sewn onto the quilt yet. Lance's scrapbook is ALMOST complete (yes the one I started in March 2003). I have been visiting some folks from our battalion. Going to memorial services. Making food for different functions. Tues. & Thurs. mornings attending and leading Bible studies. And you ask where does she find time for herself? FRIDAYS!! I try and play games or go to movies with friends. So this Friday we are starting at 4pm BABY!! I am excited!! Even if my house is a mess, I am still going. I am planning on cleaning Thurs. afternoon or Fri. morning. There is always Sat to clean, right???
Oh and I am involved at church as well. So my plate is pretty full but I am enjoying myself tremendously. I am so blessed to have an awesome church and wonderful friends. And most importantly I have Jesus :) He has been so good to me.
Well I have caught you up on my life and now you know why I haven't updated my blog in a few days...or has it been weeks? Anyhow hope you enjoyed this tid bit of info. and hope you can check back again soon.
Be looking for Gracie news. Referral should be here in a couple of weeks! Could be sooner....could be later.

Weekend activities

Well I have a lot of things to get done around here but I just had to go and see Just Like Heaven. It is a great movie! I loved it! I also went to a movie last night with Karen, my forever friend! We went to see In Her Shoes. Today I cleaned out the storage closet in the garage. I was missing a few things and knew they were probably in some of the boxes in there. So I found a few items. It was like Christmas! I also got out my winter clothes. I am so excited to be able to wear winter clothes again. So I need to get my sweaters and sweatshirts washed up. I have a couple of wool sweaters I haven't worn in years. Too warm in Alabama & Texas to wear those.
I am not sure what I will do for Christmas decorations. I don't know if I will put up a tree or not. I have plenty of decorations to decorate without putting up a tree. I may be in China for Christmas so it will be a waste of time if I do put up a tree. I love real trees so I am not sure if I am ready for a fake tree yet.
No new news on my China trip. I am trying to keep busy so I don't dwell on just waiting for a picture of Gracie.
I went and worked out today, which felt really good. It is hard to go but I always feel good when I am finished. Thank you Karen for going with me :) Well I better get some sleep. I have church tomorrow.
Check out this guy. Too funny!!

Enjoy life, today

Time is so easy to take for granted.
This is an awesome site!
Check it out and tell me what you think.

Friends are so great

I had a great time having Dale, Jennifer & the babies over for dinner. I took them to the PX & P Extra for the first time. They were so excited!
Dale was more excited being Princess Laya. Boy is he goofy. It is a good thing Jennifer is sane. Their twins had fun too!
