Countdown

I meant to do this post at the beginning of this month. Must be a good thing that I haven't gotten to it yet because that means the month is going fast. What am I talking about??
The countdown is on until our big ultrasound! I am just so excited! It is scheduled for Aug. 3rd at 3:00pm. Not only am I excited to *hopefully* be able to finally find out if this baby is a boy or a girl but to also see the little squirt. Last time I saw "Wee" he/she only looked like a little bean. Anyways, to help me get through this month quickly I set myself "legs of the race" being events, tasks, appts, etc. that I have to get through before our big day finally arrives.
So I can keep up with this mental list I'm going to list it on here.

Week of work-complete
4th of July weekend in Sumter-complete
8th of July-meeting Liz and family-cancelled
Week of work-almost complete...one more day
14th of July-16 wk Dr's appt.

Another week of work that consist of another big annual audit....Ugh, two weeks in a row!
30th of July-Amy's birthday
Week of work
1st of Aug-playdate with Nicholas and family at Discovery Waterpark
DAY OF!!!!!!:
8:00am Dentist-blah!
about 5 hours of work until I am finally able to leave for my appt!!!!

Not too bad! I should be able to survive all that!

Looking for a good book to read

A few that I've seen suggested are:
Consider Lily
The book of Jane &
Emily ever after.
All of these books look like simple little summer reads and that's exactly what I'm in the market for....

Which reminds me, I need to bring a book back to work to return to a friend....hmmm.

Headache of a Monday

In what could have been a headache of a Monday...It actually turned out to be a really good day.
I got zero sleep last night because I was too worried about the Gaffney Killer out there. Luckily his luck came to an end today when he was shot and killed. I don't normally wish that on anyone but he had what was coming to him! I pray for all the families that have been affected by this and I hope that everyone gets a good night sleep tonight!
I am also really excited about our dinner tonight. We are yet again cooking from our garden! It has given us so much food and is just so exciting to go out each day to see what we have that is new. Yesterday we cooked some of our cabbage and it was to die for!
Thats about it. It was a simple day but simple days are what I like....Work can be a drag but coming home makes the day all worth it.

I feel like with this pregnancy I have become extremely anti-social. I just find that putting on the smiles and carrying on conversation is becoming more strenuous than its worth...That's sad. I need to get my act together. I've got a lot going on this month and with each addition that gets added to my calender I feel my mood dropping lower and lower....
I'm working on it though. I know its all me and not the people around me. I need to straighten up before people just start giving up.

Animal Planet

Tonight we were sitting here watching Animal Planet. I thought it would be a great show for Keagan to watch. He loves learning about the animals and I was half surprised that as soon as he saw the animals he told me that was Africa....
After watching it for about 15 mins. the speaker was talking about the lions. He was explaining what they were doing and said the lions were waiting patiently for some buffalo to eat. As soon as Keagan heard the word buffalo, he looked up from his dinner and said, "huh, where's the butthole??"
Aaron and I cracked up. I know we shouldn't have and we did warn him that butthole was a word we didn't say...But how could you not!
