As you can imagine, I have quite a bit of time on my hands these days.  And that leaves plenty of TV watching opportunities.  For some reason, I’m able to watch the Food Network, but I can’t look at raw food at my own house.  And Little House on the Prairie is on 3 times…

I finally got around to downloading our pics from the last month…although there weren’t many.  Thought I would post them just for the simple reason of not having anything better to post! Derek, Michael and Jacob fishin’, Caleb and his worm = a good catch! Back in April we potted some tomato plants in pots…

Derek got some movies today for Father’s Day…in the same box they were shipped in.  No ribbons or bows.  No special dinners or desserts.  No breakfast in bed.  No special cards from me, although the boys had some cute ones they had made.  I feel bad about it.  I wish it were different today.  But…

when my 3-year old looks me square in the eye and says in a very serious tone, "Mom, maybe we should not have wished for this baby." Talk about a knife thru the heart.  And then today at lunch Jacob confessed that he does mini-counseling sessions each night with Caleb.  He said that "Caleb’s sad…

Well…nothing has changed here as far as my health goes.  But it hasn’t stopped us from cheering for the Mavs.  Our favorite saying around here is, "Give it to the German".  **EDITED** The Mavs lost in Game 6 of the NBA Championships to the Miami Heat.  It was a sad, sad day. 🙂

I’m enjoying watching the boys dance and sing to my newest downloads…thanks, in part, to American Idol.  Here they are…we joke that No.2 could be my 1st trimester theme song. 🙂 Download kt_tunstall_black_horse_and_the_cherry_tree_youre_not_the_one_for_me.mp3 Download daniel_powter_you_had_a_bad_day.mp3 

Not much to report this week.  I’m struggling with the nausea and vomiting and spending every day in bed or on the couch.  I’ve lost 7 pounds in a week and a half…I’m thinkin’ that’s about the only good news. 🙂  Had issues with dehydration mid-week, but that has improved with cranberry juice, my new…

This is probably the first of a few pathetic posts that will be written in the next few weeks.  The nausea is settling in and the fatigue with it.  And, for me, it is a minute by minute battle that makes these days some of the longest ever.  Of course, the blessing is that I…

Lots to talk about on this post… 1st and most important, we’re having another baby!  Yeah!  We’re all very excited.  And one of us is very tired.  Here are some funny/endearing moments by the boys in regards to their new baby: a) When we told Jacob he got teary-eyed and threw his arms around my…

Someone get me TIVO already!  My fingers are numb from switching between the Amazing Race finale, LOST, and American IDOL tonight from 8-9.  Did you see the ratios of the votes for the Idols?  Each of them had 33.something% of the votes!  Amazing.  I guess that means each of my 5 votes for Kat and…
