sorry so long since I've been here. School has been hell for the last few weeks. Catching up and trying to get stuff done. Lots of nights I'm home working on lectures till midnight. But yesterday was the last lecture for the semester. YEAH!!! I still need to be there doing some work but the pressure is off.
Also planning on getting on my exercise kick and get serious about it. No excuses now. I need to lose 15 pounds and get in shape. April 1 is the life changing kickoff date for me. I may even join weight watchers with Sandy next wednesday.
Gma and Gpa are doing well. Gpa has actually had a tiny bit of vision out of his right eye. It doesn't last long but is more than he has had in a long time. I think he has an appt with his eye doctor coming up in the next 2 weeks and I'm anxious to see what he thinks.
Greening up around here. Rick is wanting a bigger lawn mower and our grass is a foot tall so I guess we'll be looking for one this weekend. Can't be spending time working in the yard when the golf course is across the street calling his name!
Everything else about the same. Work, sleep, eat, repeat.
Miss everyone. Love, Mom

hello people
you all never get on here anymore. i know why kate don't but mom, you're slacking. anywho, just wanted to say i went to answers.com and asked about the cultures. they said that it was because i was a preterm labor risk. so take that as you want to, it is just advice from other moms.
well, i don't really have any other news so i'll get off here and await the next entry from one of you two.

hey yall watch this
i never know what to type in the title block. do you actually have to put something there? well, anywho, not of lot has happened, just been busy. it's funny how you always seem so busy and never accomplish anything. we did get our camper bought this weekend. i'm so excited about having it. i love to tent camp, it's just so hard with the dogs and now expecting the kid. me and juan and kate, maybe pun, are going to try to camp over easter. can't put anything in stone though. to early to tell aobut the weather and getting time for the kid to get here. we'll see. we're taking the "hospital kit" camping with us for that just in case situation.
speaking of the kid. she is moving around all the time now. and that is a literal interpretation. all freakin day. even when i wake up at night to pee she is moving. don't know if that means she is coming soon or not. just that she never sleeps and i'm in for a world of trouble when she does finally pop out. i'll never get my eyes closed. i have looked at mother blogs and read articles and can't believe that so few mothers have constant movement. most of them are still counting the 10 per 2 hour deal. i'm looking Hannah stays still for an hour.
well, that's all the news i have for now. i have to get off here so i can go to chow with the hubby. love you all. and remember sis, you still owe us some pics of you and the ol man.

another week done
another busy week. made even longer when Rick and I got sick with a bad cold. It didn't last long for me though. I took some Hall's defense lozenges with zinc, vitamin C and echinacea. I guess they helped. I had to lecture 3 hours one day though and my voice was about gone.
Sorry, Amy, that you are tired. That goes along with the pregnant part. Will only get worse I'm afraid but at least it will end. then you'll be tired because you have to get up several times at night. But I've never regretted any of it. Wouldn't trade you guys for any amount of rest and sleep.
I started a new class this week - landscaping. The teacher isn't really a professional but seems very nice. Wants to help us get our own landscaping plotted out. Should be fun. Rick and I have a blank slate. Lots to do come spring.
Running/walking got put on hold while I couldn't take a good breath. Guess I better get back to it soon though. Tina is up to running 3 miles by now. Puts me to shame.
Will write more later.
Love to all.

catchin' up
well, it's been awhile since i had time to get on here to say howdy. i've been so busy between school and work the last couple of weeks. and it just seems like i get more tired with everyday that goes by. mi clase de espanol is finally over on monday. it was an 8 wk/half semester course. just a helpful hint little seester, don't take a half semester of any language. there is not enough time. some of the people in my class were getting 40's on their tests. we spent 2 days on the last chapter and he ended the class by telling us that there wasn't enough time for a review day and our test would be tomorrow. i don't think i did so well on that test. the finals are monday. i have a written and oral final. and my culture essay and 2 extra credit essays are due on that day too. so i will be busy again all weekend.
on another note, i picked all that stuff up from wal-mart. tell g-pa i love the stroller mom. and juan likes the monitors. he talks to the dogs on them. it's pretty funny cause the dogs don't understand. we put one in the kitchen and the speaker in the baby's room to see how they worked. he was whispering at the dogs but they heard his voice coming from the baby's room louder. they were confused. they just run back and forth from one room to the other trying to figure it out. cooper runs and looks at the speaker with his head cocked off to the side. soooo cute. anywho guess i've wrote enough for now. my lunch break is almost over and i have to get through my blade fold/wing stow class this afternoon then it will be the weekend. i can't wait to be lazy and sleep in on saturday. love you all and write sometime.
