DON’T FALL ASLEEP

Okay---done now. My ridiculous giggling over this stuff is getting too obnoxious. This is the best stuff ever.

I Got the Hook Up

I Got the Hook Up

OMG. I saw this and the granola bar that I was eating totally came out of my mouth I was laughing so hard. Regretsy is the shizzle.

Summer is coming to an end...:(

Because it has been so hot this summer, Randy and I haven't been the best of parents and haven't taken the dogs for very many walks. That is why we let them swim. It makes us, and them, feel much better.

35 weeks---not bad clothed and from this angle....

...AAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......

There was a Water Festival at Riverfront Park and Delaney and I went to check it out---especially because Randy had a booth there for the day for his work. It was a neat festival with everyone giving out awesome water bottles and they were doing kayak and canoe trips on the river. Delaney took an opportunity to have a snack in the shade of her stroller.



Here is Randy and his booth at the water festival. He was such a professional and there were lots of people stopping by to hear what he had to say. It was a little bit hot there in the sun but he was a trooper.

D and her daddy checking out the river.

At the booth next to Randy's they were doing face painting.

Delaney got a cool fish.

Can't remember if I have mentioned or shown it before, but this is Delaney's seat when she watches movies in her playroom. Yes---it is a fancy dog bed that we originally bought for Olive but the prima donna of dogs refused to get in it. Because it is quite plush---Delaney scoped it out and with the right pillow and blanket...it really is quite comfortable. Don't be hatin'. Whatever works.

I love how Delaney sometimes gets confused when she sings songs. She really is the ultimate comedian. Love her.

Summer Fun

Delaney went rummaging through her dress-up clothes and found this flower hat.

34 Weeks---I am seriously on the count-down now. Still feeling good but becoming slightly less mobile with a bit of back pain. I really can't complain though---this pregnancy has been just as easy as the first. I just hope this girl is as easy as the first one!!!



On Friday I had a bunch of my girl friends from work over for a pool day. We had lots of tasty treats and they day started a bit cloudy but then got pretty. Delaney liked hanging out with the girls and my friend Katie brought her little boy Duncan who is adorable and such a flirt. I hate that I didn't take any pictures of our fun day!! Thank you to Katie, Danielle, Liz, Mary Holland, English, and Katie for coming!!!

One of Randy's friends and co-workers just gave us this canoe. We took it out to one of the little lakes near our house for a quick spin on Sunday. We have no pics from our trip but Delaney wore her stylish new life jacket and Randy bought her a Toy Story fishing rod which she used on our excursion. It was so much fun and I can't wait to keep using our new toy!!!

A Toddler No More.....:(

33 weeks---with the oh-so-attractive belly button just poking out.

Delaney's last day in the toddler room with her bud Sarah Beth.

A big bunch of blond girls----Sarah Beth, Abby, Callie, Delaney, and Libbie being held by her daddy. All of the girls are graduating and moving up to the 2's room. All of the girls will also be together but poor Libby. :( She is going to the other toddler room but she and Delaney can still see each other on the playground.





Delaney and one of her favorite people EVER, Mrs. Vickie. As I write this post at a later date, Delaney is in the 2's room but still gets soooo excited when she sees Mrs. Vickie at school.

Delaney loves some Mrs. Patti too and always wants to give her big hugs.

Delaney and I spent Friday at the zoo with some girls from her school and their mommies. Here are Sally, Libbie, and Delaney.

The Triple Threat at the fish tank: "NEMO!!!!!!!"----Libbie, Delaney, and Sarah Beth.

The four girls and the only way we could get them to pose together.

Delaney is just like her momma---she likes to talk with a deep voice. This is just a brief statement---all we could catch. It is hysterical when she just says a random statement with her deep voice.

Belly Updates, Pools, and Funerals

32 weeks---I think I look rather slim in this pic. If you were to see me in real life I look MUCH bigger.

Enjoying some pool time. Doodlebug has done soooo well with swimming. I signed her up for swim classes because of family recommendation (more on that later) and we attended 3 classes. They were HORRIBLE because not only did Delaney know everything in the class because her mommy and daddy had already taught her, but the pool was FREEZING!!! Now this is an indoor YMCA "heated" pool and all of the kids were blue and their teeth were chattering. It was an overall horrible experience. So--we were quitters and just continue to swim happily in our warm, outside, "heated" pool. Moral of the story: Family is NOT always right and you shouldn't listen to them. Go with your gut. Have you seen my gut?? It knows what it is talking about.





Jumping to her daddy from the stairs.

Kick, kick, kick!

On Saturday night we went to celebrate Larry's "funeral". Our friend Larry is the executive director of the Nickelodeon movie theater here in town and he did a great fundraiser that was centered around his "funeral". There were lots of musical acts and entertainment and everyone brought "funeral" food and there was a cash bar and basically it was a fabulous night. Larry had a silent auction there of various items he was getting rid of and at intermission you could take pictures with the "corpse" for $5. I loved it! So glad I have such a fabulous God-Daddy (and you too Joe---the keyboard playing was AWESOME!!!!)

At the "funeral", there was a Jello molding competition. Now of course my friend Jessica participated in this because she is the super-duper artist of all time. She collaborated with our friend Becky to make this spectacular piece that ended up winning first prize. Yes----the head is Jello and he/she is completely edible with all of the fruit pieces.

She is a drag queen and her name is "Ima Jiggler". Brilliant.

My friend Kim belts it out on stage at the "funeral". Her version of Lady Marmalade brought the house down!!!

The former National Hula Hooping Champion, Larry Hembree, shows off his skills at his "funeral".
