baby boy...turkey...and stuff

Yesterday was a day of great anticipation!

We found out at my 20 week ultrasound that we are having a boy! YAY! We are so freakin' excited! NOw we can start preparing more for the baby. I'm half way there. Little Brennen was healthy, active and very proud! :)

Thanksgiving will be at my house again this year, but for a smaller crowd than last year. I promised myself I wouldn't get stressed out or over-do-it like last year, but I always feel like everything has to be perfect when we have company. I'm kicking myself (hard) in the ass right now. Kinda "wtf was I thinking!?!?" I should've taken this year off since I'm preggers, but too late now. Wah wah wah. Done whining.

On a better note, I have so much to be thankful for this year. My children are happy and healthy, I have an amazing husband, we bought our first home this year and now expecting our little baby boy. I have amazing friends and family, a good job and I, too, am healthy. Life doesn't get much better than this, folks. And if ya think it does, maybe you need to step back and realize how blessed you are and you'll find yourself much happier. :)

just... shut up.

So...we decide to grab some dinner at Johnny's tonight because I'm in my typical Friday night pregnant mood and it was packed when we walked in. I'm thinking, "great, my kids are about to bounce off the walls." We decided to sit at the bar so we could eat quickly and what a mistake that was! We had the joy of sitting near the register, so we heard everyone picking up to go orders. I can't believe how ridiculous people are. I actually felt bad for the girl work up front because it seemed almost every man that walked in the door had a huge chip on their shoulder. Anyway, one guy was being such an ass...I know I was staring in disbelief. I just wanted to tell him to shut up for the poor girl.
Thats it for today. Just another rant about being annoyed from this preggo chick.

I feel like....Christmas

I've already caught Christmas fever this year which is rather odd for me.

We usually put up the tree and start decorating the weekend right after Thanksgiving, but tonight we put the smaller of our 2 trees up in the upstairs living area. I am thinking I will probably put up the big tree downstairs this weekend. I don't know it hit me so early this year, but I am just in the mood for Christmas already. I'm ready to bake, shop and spend some time with my family. Maybe my pregnant belly just wants the cookies and goodies! lol!

Get ready....after all, it is only 42 days away!!!

Election Day 2008

So, did you get your butt out to vote today???

I voted early last week since I knew the kids would be out of school today and did not want to face the lines with my weak pregnant bladder. Who did I vote for? That's none of your business. Just know that I did vote and I am comfortable with my decision.

For those of you who decide NOT to vote, don't you complain, bitch, rant and rave one word to me over the next 4 years about what's going on with the government in our country. If you're too lazy to do a little research, read about the topics at hand, make an educated decision that YOU feel is right to earn your vote....you lose the right to bitch!

I do have to say, no matter who wins this elect, it will be something to make a big mark in the United States history! As someone who loves history and was a big history buff in school (yes, I have my Daughters of the American Revolution History Award from 1998 framed an everything!), whether Obama/Biden or McCain/Palins wins this election, both are a first for American history. I am anxious to see what happens! Will we end up with the first black President or the first woman Vice President?

No matter which political party you associate yourself with...Democratic, Republican, Liberal, Independent..... I hope you exercised one of the best rights you have and voted.

Or shall we say, DUMBASSES.

We've had some bad weather as a result of "Fay" this week in the metro Atlanta area and I am sick of driving into work in the morning with rain pouring and having a car ride my ass down the road without their effing headlights on! Not only is it 100% STUPID, but it is against the friggin' law, dumbass!

That is all.

We're pregnant!!!

***happy dance!****

We did it! Yay!
I'll be going to the doctor in a couple weeks, but it looks like my Due Date is April 17, 2009. Gosh, that seems so far away!
All I know right now is that I've been super tired and irritable. Oh, and WTF is up with the bloated belly already??? In the words of my mother, "Oh Jesus!" :)



Yay for babies!
I guess that's it for tonight, because...(wait for it...) I'm tired and going to bed! lol.

Finally going to see Sevendust tonight after missing their show last November when I was healing from surgery. SO EXCITED! Have I mentioned that I love them?!?!?!
