CAKE TIME!!!

These are from my birthday. I turned 32 this year and Rick took me to a nice breakfast and then to a great dinner. The first food pics are from the breakfast place. They had a bakery and well, you know me. I got a few pasteries to try. They were so yummy. My favorite were the creme brule tarts with fresh berries!

A quick family pic from the 19th when Sue and I had our joint birthday party.

Brynnan stareing down the loot. She LOVES presents!

Is it really July?

I mean, where does the time go? Rick and the kids and I have had a lot of changes in the past few weeks. He got transfer ed to the Tucson plant so we had to move. I'm not complaining at all. I'm glad to be back where there's people. I missed my family. Brynnan turned 2 (pics and video to come soon) and I also had my 32ND birthday! Whew.



We listed our home on my birthday and we are praying for a quick sale. We really would like to purchase a home here but for now we are staying with his Mom and Step dad til this happens. Soooo, any extra thoughts and prayers are welcome. We actually found 2 homes we like. Both are fixer uppers (imagine that) but theres one we REALLY love. It could be our forever home. BUT, no use getting excited til we can actually buy.



Koley is doing fantastic. He will be attending Sabino High and it's a big school and very pretty. Also doing drivers ed. I'm nervous. He's excited. Brynnan is growing like a weed and getting more and more independent. She makes me laugh. The baby is doing well and I have started weekly visits with my new Dr here in Tucson. He's way nice and so is his staff. I'm getting big (pics to come) and I hope the growing of my belly stops. I'm at the uncomfy stage now.

Big Girl Panties

Yep. I started potty training Brynnan on Mother's Day. What a gift to me right? Well, she is 22 months and I wanted to get her trained before baby boy gets here and before she was "diaper trained". She is doing extremely well and I'm so proud of her! She looks so cute in her new panties and she loves to go potty so she can get her treat! Silly girl. I've done both day and night training with her and she is just fantastic. A few accidents and has woken up a few times wet but all in all the girl has got it! One thing she WILL NOT do. Go #2 in the potty. Why is that so hard or scary for children? Oh well, my little Loubie Lou is growing up and I'm proud of the toddler she has become!

April

April was a good month. My Dad had his 60th birthday , there was Easter and we got to have our big ultrasound! The baby is growing and healthy and we were pleased to learn we are having a son. Everyone was excited about the news and we got a few great pics. Now to get Rick to talk names with me.

As for the rest of the month the weather has been crazy causeing us all to get colds and that's no fun. My belly is growing and I'll be 6 months on Monday the 27th. Brynn loves to push up my shirt and kiss my belly or lay her head on it to see if she can "hear" the baby. She's so cute and still makes me smile all the time. On Easter she was a STAR! She wen straight for her basket of goodies and was pleased to find some cool toys such as a bubble wand, matchbox cars and a magna doodle. When it came time to hunt for eggs she needed no instruction. She went for it and found all the eggs I had hidden for her. That's one smart cookie...just like her Mom.
