I'm not sure why I thought this was funny, but I did. I guess it's as funny to me as my dad thought it was funny to take pictures with diapers on our head.

Here are some pictures from when he was littler to now.

It's been awhile!

Hello all! Well, it's been quite some time since I've blogged. I'm going to try to start posting much more. Especially since Nate is here and I actually have something to blog about. It's not just Mufasa anymore. Well, Nate is going to be 4 months this Friday! Yippy! He's still the happiest little baby. His eyes are still blue. He rolls over from tummy to his back and grabs everything he can reach. He's working on rolling to his tummy, but he's having trouble getting over that lump of a belly. He talks a lot and loves music. Big fan of Queen, Ozzy and Miles Davis or whatever weird stuff I sing to him. He's gnawing and drooling all the time so maybe we'll get some teeth soon. He even tried to eat my nilla wafer right out of my hand the other day. Well, we will be down there for Thanksgiving so I can't wait to see everyone! Mitch is working hard AND going to school! Yay! And the baby and I play at the house all day. Life is good!

I just wanted to show you my pretty pansies that I planted and brought back to life. I wanted to make sure I could actually keep plants alive before I decided to invest in any thing nicer. I'm really proud of myself for remembering to water them. Now I have pretty flowers to enjoy when I'm on the back porch reading.

Also, I wanted to share this lovely picture. I walk into Walmart and to my delight see this 50+ man shopping in a cut off mesh shirt. It looked like a football practice jersey or something. I followed him for awhile so I could take a picture and even though he has that balding business in front--I was definitely enjoying the "party in the back." Hah, Ohio hasn't let me down on tacky Walmart shoppers.

Here's baby Nate! He was really wiggling during the ultrasound, she was having to chase him around. I'm just glad he has all the fat on his face now so he doesn't look like a creepy alien. Mitch says it looks like he will have my round nose and big lips. We'll soon see. :) But he's doing great, still on schedule. He's 5lb 11oz..that's what they said. He's right in the middle, not too big or small. So hopefully they are right. I'm getting very anxious, I'm so ready for him to be here. It is still really weird, he was just wiggling and opening and closing his mouth..I'm pretty sure it freaks me out as much as it amazes me. Mitch is kind of anxious, but he's never excited about anything until it happens. So we're just hanging out waiting on Nate to get here.

This is his little fat face.

Sorry guys, I know it's been awhile since I blogged. Well, really all we've been up to is getting ready for Nate to get here. I'm going through everything in the entire apartment to make sure it's all easy to find and space efficient. I finally went through all our bills and whatnot and organizing them all into my file box. And we've finally got everything together to put in our fireproof safe. I still need to put all our pictures on discs to put in there. I'm terrified of having someone catch our apartment building on fire and I lose all our pictures. I just really like being organized.
Mitch is still working a lot and we are still trying to get all of his schooling worked out. It's been a headache trying to get the right people on the phone and finding a program for him. I'm still hanging out at the house, getting things ready and baking a lot. I can't help it. Cookies, brownies, and cobbler..something different every week. Hopefully I won't have gained too much weight at my next appointment. :/ I was quite unsuccessful in my attempt to stop drinking sweet tea. I'm going to go ahead and blame my dad for that.
Well, we miss y'all and can't wait to see you this weekend!! Yay!

Another loss.

Well, we've finally figured out how to play Rummy correctly. And it's another game I suck at. I blew everyone away the first game we played, but that was obviously just beginners luck. Now Mitch just stomps all over me. And he wanted me to post the proof. :)
