We're having...

Another baby girl!!! My wonderful babys' daddy and I went to have our ultrasound this morning, and low and behold, Lily is going to have a baby sister :)

**Thank you Lord for blessing me with 2 wonderful daughters. All I ask is that they grow up healthy and happy and Eddie and I can guide them in the right directions :) I also pray that Eddie doesn't pull out his guns on any boyfriends--yikes!! :)

Her little name will be Isley Ruth--Isley is pronounced Eyeslee--and we expect her around 9/20/08.

Top 10 part Deaux

My top 10 Pet Peeves (in no particular order):

1) Constant Negativity-you only live once, be happy!!!
2) Talking with your mouth full of food-this is just rude.
3) Smacking gum-this is just annoying.
4) Not saying thank you when I hold the door for you-see #2.
5) Not responding when asked how your day is-see #2 and #4.
6) Giving parental advise when you're a stranger-I know how to parent my child and am aware that she is under the clothes rack, thank you!
7) Horrible grammer-a person does not "be" doing something, they "are" doing something or "have done" it or "are going to do" it.
8) People who lie and manipulate the system to get stuff for "free"-I'm paying for you and your multiple kids and you suck and don't appreciate it.
9) People who blow their horn at you the second the light changes to green-get a grip!
10) Eating in the same room as me and not offering me anything--I'm pregnant, I probably won't take any unless it's greasy b/c that's what I'm craving, but that's just rude! :)

Top 10 Part 1

I'm a list lover--a lover of lists if you will. This is my first installment, entitled:

Top 10 places to visit/see before I die:

10) Italy-I would like to eat my way through it.
9) Cape Cod-remember the show "Wings"? Need I say more.
8) Maine-I would love to drive the coast and eat Lobster.
7) San Fransisco and Napa Valley-I think that is self explanatory.
6) Hawaii-I'd love to watch whales and take a helicopter ride through the waterfalls.
5) Seattle-It really doesn't rain as much as people think. It's a common misconception.
4) NY City-Restaurants, shopping, tourist attractions and night life.
3) Spain-$2 calamari
2) Greece-self explanatory
1) The UK-Scotland, Ireland, England. The Hubby and I plan on this our 10th anniversary.

I just have to say

Life with my husband is never a dull moment. Check out his blog.

At 17 months old

My daughter is amazing. Her favorite thing to say is "thank you". Along with that, she says, mama, dada, mamaw, papaw, nana, papa, bear, bye bye, hey, apple, purple, blue, moo, woof woof, poo poo, ball, juice, balloon, baby, uh oh, dog, kitty, meow, tickle, blanket, no, eye, nose, moon, and milk. That's just things that we can understand--she babbles all the time. Everyday is something new and it just gets better and better.

Plus, she's the best dancer in the house.

In Lieu of Earth Day

My green thumb and my taste buds are itching for me to get my veggie garden planted. Will it stop raining, just for a second, so my husband can finish my raised bed--please, oh please? We plan on planting tomatoes, peppers (red, green, banana and jalepeno), green onions, cucumbers, squash, zucchini, herbs and maybe okra and a melon or two. I can't wait to taste the fruits-and veggies-of our labor! :)
