Happy 28th Birthday to Amanda! Hope you have a great day:-)

News in our family is NEVER ENDING!!:-))))

Yes, I said "News in our family is NEVER ENDING"...I just got a phone call from Brooks...they had an ultra sound today and she and Davey are pregnant with TWINS!!! Yes, I said TWINS! Her Grandmother is a twin so we were just talking about that at our cookout Friday night and knew it was very possible that she be pregnant with twins BUT who ever thought she would be...exciting!!! They do know at this point that they are NOT identical but all is well:-) Just had to share the excitement! And Amanda please forgive me...I took it upon myself to blog the news b/c you haven't blogged in FOREVER!!! :-)))))

Baby Benson, 34 weeks (REALLY 33 weeks, 6 days)

*This is the email I sent out y'day on my check-up but didn't get a chance to blog it with my other post*

Hello to all! I went this morning for a check-up...nothing really to report which is GREAT news. All looks great with Baby Benson and we are still on track for July 8th being the due date. Baby Benson was once again very active, heart rate was b/t 140-145. We will go back in 2 weeks and then will start the weekly visits! I still can't get over how time has flown by...he/she will be here before we know it:-) Until next time, take care:-)



p.s And for those of you that have not heard just yet...Whitney, Charlie, and Tucker announced this weekend that they are expecting again...due Dec. 10 which makes her 3 months! And I think most of you know about Brooks and Davey as well...they are due Jan. 15. So we will have babies everywhere our way:-)))) So EXCITING!!!

Weekend Cookout w/ NEWS!

Friday night we had an early Memorial Day cookout at Mom and David's...great food and much fun! A few snapshots below...NOW I have "new" news and then I have "old" news per say...but not really old...just old b/c I hadn't blogged about it yet. Just hadn't blogged those pics yet! Anyway here goes...we had all finished eating Friday night and Tucker came back out of the house and said "My Mommy has a baby in her tummy" (as he points to her tummy)! It was the cutest thing...wish I could have caught it on video! So...Whitney and Charlie are expecting along with Big Brother to be Tucker...she had her ultra sound on Friday and she is 3 months pregnant due on December 10! Now for the older news...Brooks and Davey announced at our May birthday dinner that they are expecting as well...she goes for her ultra sound tomorrow but they are thinking that she is due on January 15! So, we are going to have babies EVERYWHERE our way! It's all so exciting! I hope little Tucker will adjust well with so many little one's and starting pre-school in August. I'm sure he'll be just fine. Tucker with his new watering can like Me-Maw's so that he can help her take care of the flowers! And that's Charlie with his head cut off!

Relaxing after dinner...Kevin, Paw-Paw, and Tucker!

Over the 30 mark...

Well yesterday I went "over the 30 mark", I celebrated 31 years...I didn't ever think I'd get that old and last year I stressed about the "BIG 30". Of course it wasn't a big deal after the fact but it's still hard to believe that I am really that old even though I don't consider it old at all! I had a wonderful day...Kevin is working nights so he surprised me when he got home yesterday morning with a Canon Powershot G110 camera, 14.1 megapixils! I was so surprised and so excited. He actually dropped mine a few weeks ago when we were visiting my friend Melissa and her new baby at Obici. It still worked but the screen was a little messed up. Anyway...the pics below are with Mom's camera...I will try to get the few I took with my camera downloaded soon and post. Then, Kevin went to bed to get some zzzz's and I went to church. Little Tucker came in and the 1st thing he said was "Happy Birthday Aunt Chele Chele"...it was so sweet...made my day. We had lunch at church and Mom made me a sinful chocolate cake and everybody sang! Tucker thinks it's great to sing "happy birthday" and he thanked Mom for having a birthday party for Aunt Chele Chele when he left. I then went back to Mom's to open another gift and hung out for the rest of the afternoon 'til it was time for Kevin to get up...went to Amanda's too and visited with her and Brooks. When Kevin awoke, we went to Joe's Pizza to eat. Whit, Charlie, Tucker, Mom, and David went too and then we went back to Mom's for more cake! It was a great day despite the weather! So many of my friends and family were so good to me...I also got a manicure and pedicure gift certificate, some money, some jewelry, and a huge basket of Harry and David goodies that one of my best friends bought right in front of my face when we went to W'burg on Saturday to spend the day...I didn't have a clue! I was so surprised yesterday when she brought it to me! She and my sister were tripping out that I didn't know! Anyway...that was my day in a nut shell! Look at that belly at almost 33 weeks!

Tucker is just like his Mommy and LOVES Parmesan cheese...they eat it by the spoonfuls...will share pics from camera too later on! It was so funny seeing him lick the plate clean!

Me and the Hubbie before he had to leave for work!
