July 2nd

Happy B-day S! I hope you have a great day.

I have discovered today that maternity wear is harder to find around here than it should be. In the past 12 months 2 Motherhood Maternity stores in my area closed. Not a big deal because a new super store of sorts with MM and A Pea in the Pod opened kind of in my area.
But this week on my lunch break from work i stopped at a Macy's and a Mervyn's and both stores said they stopped carrying maternity. ??
So needless to say i'm frustrated because aside from a very small section at the local target and the place kind of close to home there aren't a lot of options.

This is probably a blessing in disguise as i don't WANT to buy any more maternity clothes since i don't plan on being pg again, i have already outgrown most pants i wore to the end of my pregnancy with Eric.

can't wait for the Fall!

Not Much To Report

Things are pretty calm at the moment so i apologize for the lack of posts.

I was going to vent about gas prices but Amy did a great job of that for me a few days ago. I just keeping thinking back about 12 years ago in college when gas was 99 cents a gallon and you weren't allowed to pump it - by law.
Can we go back to at least that price? It cost me $51 dollars to fill up last night. Ouch.

The next few weeks will be busy with some weekend home improvement projects. We painted the laundry room last weekend and will be hanging some cabinets soon. Plus we get new carpet in 2 weekends for the living room. Yippee.

Only 2 More Sleeps....

Until we find out the sex of impending baby. I'm excited and don't know how those of you who choose to be surprised make it all the way to the end not knowing.

A friend of mine said it was the last real surprise in life. True but i'd rather give it a name. And buy appropriate cute clothes.

We went to see Indiana Jones last week. It was good. Not the greatest but good. George Lucas summed it up best in an interview - "we made a B movie in an A style"
That is so true and how they made the other 3 movies.

The June heat is setting in, can't believe it is already JUNE!

So Precious

One of my favorite things is when i tell my son i love him and kiss him on the cheek he reaches up to me and cups my face or hugs me and says "I love you sooo much" in his cute little voice and kisses me back. That is a moment when a mothers heart melts.

May Already?!

Ok so first there was an entry associated with the post title below. Not sure where it went. I was probably griping about my lack of caffeine. Since i can't remember never mind.

It has been a very busy few weeks, hence the lack of posts here. We went to Disneyland for 5 whole days. Which at first seemed like too much time at the magic kingdom but worked out well. It is the first time i've ever been with a child and it was fun because he was having so much fun.

Then on the day we headed home i got sick with a sinus/respiratory infection that put a damper on my next whole week. Then the whole family gets sick and next thing you know - the laundry has piled up and people are looking for a shirt they wore on vacation and wondering why it hasn't been washed in 2 weeks. We will disregard that comment and move on.

Nothing else exciting it going on to report. Today is my parents 36th wedding anniversary - too bad Hallmark doesn't make cards that say - Happy Anniversary. Congratulations for not divorcing, setting fire to the house or killing each other in the last __ years.
That would be more appropriate than the lovey dovey cards i was sifting through yesterday.

On the political front check out www.mccainblogette.com it is the blog of John McCain's Daughter Meghan. While i haven't decided who gets my vote in the Fall as i am still waiting for Obama and Clinton to duke it out to the finish, i find Meghan's 23 year old view point of the campaign trial fun and enjoy her music playlists.
