sweet home alabama

i love these 2 goobers

well folks, im sitting here with my momma and papa bear in alabama watching colbert, while my sweet munchkins are sleeping in my old room and ryan is in atlanta. ryan is going on business trips for the next 3 weeks, so i figured i would come here and stay with them so i wouldn't get too lonely. they both work full time, so its just like any other day during the day- just me and the boys, but then i get to hang out with them once they get home, and i cherish every moment. i love my parentals. i miss them so much. living in missouri while they are here in alabama breaks my heart. i think the only reason i dont cry all day every day because i block out the fact that they arent 5 minutes away and i can't get a hug unless i drive 8 and 1/2 hours to get it. im excited to be able to be with them and let my little soldiers make some memories with their nana and papa. i love them.

right now my dad is mumbling randomly. he cracks me up. i brought a bag of jelly beans here leftover from christmas. he has eaten them nonstop last night and tonight after he got home from work. he just told me he feels like he threw up in his stomach. it could be that he ate a million different flavors within a very short amount of time. my mom and i ate left overs for dinner, so after 2 hours of being home he asked in a wimper, what we ate. after i told him, he wimpered again saying, thats nice. he was fishing around trying to get one of us to make him something and bring it to him while he lounged on the couch. i told him he had 2 legs : ) he told me in a ghetto accent if i weren't prego, he'd slap me upside my head. of course he was totally joking. and if he did actually slap me, id slap him back. heh. he is such a weirdo and i love it. my sisters and i always say we get our hyperness from our mom and our weirdness from my dad.

*update: hah...45 minutes later he just asked again what we ate for dinner and said he wasn't that hungry...maybe i should get off my butt and make him something... or maybe he will just go and get the box of lucky charms...

well, i guess i just spilled the beans, assuming you haven't already noticed the pregnancy ticker on my blog : ) we are gonna have another little person running around this summer. well.. hopefully it won't be born running around. but what im trying to say is, we are gonna have a baby and i think im due around august 15th. so im roughly 11 weeks. i dont think that that date is very accurate cause my cycles were WAY weird after i had cole. im excited for my first doctors appointment so i can find out for sure, but its not till the middle of february when we get back. it would be awesome to find out i was a couple weeks further along than i thought : )

here is a blog that i stumbled upon somehow during one of my blog marathons. i absolutely love this girl. she is so funny and i feel like we could be best friends if we actually knew each other. she is just too funny and such a down-to-earth person. she totally inspires me to want to run. i actually just told me mom today that she inspired me to want to run a marathon. i must have lost my mind. so... before i die, i will run a marathon. anyway, her blog site is http://www.hungryrunnergirl.com/. u should totally check it out. its so fun, and she posts like at least twice a day, so if u have time to kill like i do when i dont have a hubby to snuggle with, u should check it out. : )

do u guys have any blogs u love???

i think even though 3 weeks is going to feel like forever, it will be fun to be here. my sister jacquie, AKA the JACKAL, and her hubby doug are going to come visit this weekend (they live an hour and a half from my parentals). im excited! and then next week me and the boys are going to load up and go visit them for 2 days : ) it will be fun fun fun till daddy takes the t-bird away!

oh, and did i mention i miss this man. its only been 2 days since i last saw him. 1 week in atlanta and 2 weeks in venezuela equals death of my soul. i am returning to my coping mechanism and blocking out the fact that i dont get to see him every night for the next 3 weeks. i love him.

this picture was in our room on our honeymoon cruise, that was really fun : )
