What we've been up to....

D-Backs Game/Donny's B-Day: Donny's work rented the dugout suites for the last game of the season, which also happened to be Donny's 26th B-day. We were right next to the D-Backs players, it was pretty awesome!

My 26th Birthday: My wonderful husband took me for a long weekend to the Princess Resort in Scottsdale. We had a great time eating out, hanging by the pool, and walking around the beautiful grounds.

Donny's Scuba Trip: Back in August Donny went on his official certification dive at Catalina Island. He had a ton of fun using all his "skills" and "making it back to the top" (a little joke).

What I'm thinking RIGHT now ;)

Inventory last night...it was supposed to go until midnight-that did not happen. It went until 1:30 am-and my store was a mess......of course, no one could come in to clean.....so I did with only having 4 hours of sleep. I was there this morning until 11 am-then I had to go to Target and pick up some essentials (no deoderant is not a good thing). Got back home about noon and there is much more in my home that needs to be done: dishes, loads of laundry, scrubbing bathrooms. cleaning floors, and vacuuming....maybe more. So now I'm just angry that inventory people are dumb and messy-they have made me tired and angry, and my house is sill dirty. I have 45 minutes to clean up and get into work so that I can babysit the "Friday Night" kids whose parents dropped them off at the mall so they wouldn't have to spend family time together (told you I was angry >:( ) So if you happen to run into to me while you are there, sorry if I'm in a bad mood. Promise you'll have a better Friday than me. Happy Saturday! (because I will have had sleep by then).

Oh Baby? Yeah Baby!!

About 2 months ago I began to have tons of strange dreams. They involved Donny holding a baby, me changing a baby's diaper, a baby crying about something and I had to help it, etc. The following week I was due to get my "monthly". Of course, it did not arrive on the expected day-no shocker there-that's just how my system has always worked. Not really thinking anything of the dreams, or the fact that I was "late"-went on with my day-to-day. My next day off from work happened to be a weekday, so I put myself into cleaning mode: floors, laundry, dishes, the works! I had the TV on all day while I was hustling and bustling about. Low and behold every single show had to do with a baby in some way: Charmed-Piper was going into labor....Full House-Becky tries to tell Jesse that she's pregnant....The Today Show-Nancy Grace talking about going back to work with her twins....Friends-The one where Phoebe finds out she's pregnant. The light bulb clicked: am I pregnant? I really had to go the bathroom so I told myself to hold it-we're going to Target-I've got to buy some pregnancy tests!!!!! I made that trip, came home, and did my thing. 3 short minutes later I found out that I was going to be a mommy. I couldn't be happier! I began sobbing and smiling and didn't know what to do......should I immediately call Donny? Should I call the doctor? Do I need to go buy some prenatal vitamins? Too many thoughts at once. So what do I do when I get worried-call April. We chatted and came up with a game plan, also known as, April calming me down :) I decided that I would come up with a cute way to tell Donny the following night. I was far too nervous and giddy over the next day that no cuteness came to mind. So later that night I simply told him that I took a pregnancy test (3 at this point) and unless First Response was untrustworthy, we were going to have a baby!

So surprise, surprise! We're having a baby :) Now that I'm feeling real well and officially into my second trimester I thought I should blog about it. This little bundle of joy is set to join us March 28, 2010-so probably early April.

There is so much more that has happened in our lives I need to update everyone on and I will get to that quite soon! Until then......thanks for reading

A Wabbit

THE SCENE:

It's 12:15am and I step out of my car........what the heck! There's a cute little rabbit in my front yard!.....I stalk it.....and stalk it.....then, chase it down the road.......and stalk it some more.....then feed it some grass.......then a little more stalking......then BAM!!!! I got him!!!

This cute little guy escaped out of our neighbor's backyard. For two-and-a-half days I had a precious little bunny living in my bathtub. He was so sweet that I almost wanted to keep him-until he escaped out of the tub and chewed a GIANT hole in the side of the towel basket as well as poop and pee all over the towels.

Until we meet again my sweet Snowball......

Bath Time

Sometimes I feel bad when we have to give her a bath......but then she does something bad, and I don' t feel that way anymore.

The Grown Up Backyard

As of July 11, 2009 our backyard was considered finished. I'm so stoked! (I'm channelling Keanu Reeves for this one) The sod was laid on Saturday thanks to Donny, my bro-Adam, and my bro-in-law-Mike. So thanks to the 3 of you for doing it. :) It's been a long process-seeing as how it all began in February. So last night Donny and I decided to eat our dinner in our new beautiful backyard-a Grown Up Backyard!

Hangin' at the Pool

On Saturday my sister-in-law and friend Carrie went to Firesky Resort in Scottsdale to lay by the pool and have some drinks. It was the perfect little getaway, for just a few hours. Thanks for the pic Stace! ;)
