SUMMER LUVIN' SATURDAY!

Marie at Pouty Pink Princess is hosting a Summer Luvin' Saturday

So...here's what we've done so far this weekend!

Nate test drove this Mustang 5.0

Yeah yeah, so what if we have a baby coming in 3 short months...this boy loves his Mustangs.



Do you recognize this guy? It's Max Headroom. I saw this gigantic picture in neon colors, which my iPhone didn't capture. We were at The Max Retropub last night.

Here's another pic of Max:

That's all I've got so far!

Fill in the Blank Friday

 

 

1. I love this time of year because it gets light earlier, stays lighter later, and stuff is so green outside.

 

2. A time that mama knew best was there have been several times recently when she says, "Do whatever you want." Like when someone asks me some sort of baby question and I know I can't answer it until the baby actually gets here and we see how things go...I always ask my mom what to do and she says, "Do whatever you want."

3. My first kiss went a little like this ....awkward. Just awkward.

 

4. My celebrity crush is Ryan Reynolds. The one thing I don't like about him is he's Canadian. But I can get over that.

 

5. My splurge of choice is normally it's clothes or shoes. Is it bad that my splurge is now food? hahahaha

6. My biggest accomplishment is my marriage. Nate and I have moved several times throughout our 5 years of marriage and it's very hard to rely just on each other....but it's totally worth it. When we moved far away from family, it made us closer. :)

7. My dance jam of choice is some sort of Destiny's Child or Michael Jackson. And it's ugly.

25 weeks

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 25 weeks, 5 days (a little over 6 months)

Size of baby: Baby is around the size of an eggplant (9.2 inches, 2lbs)

Total Weight Gain/Loss: up 13 lbs. Yikes 

Maternity Clothes: everything except gym shorts and tshirts are maternity.

Gender: girl

Movement: lots and lots of movement. Especially when I'm trying to sleep. She's getting bigger and moving closer to my ribs. This will not turn out well.

Sleep: Not so much. I wake up a ton. I still have crazy dreams, ie Nate's grandfather (I never knew him) was involved in the Mexican drug cartel. What?

What I miss: running for long periods of time/working out hardcore, beer, and sushi. I miss getting in a bathing suit and not caring. I put my bathing suit on the other day...completely inappropriate. I haven't been to a pool yet, but I'm sure I would scare people.

Cravings: I like breakfast foods. I'm so boring.

Symptoms: Heartburn. Lots and lots and lots of heartburn. I'm not quite in my 3rd trimester, but I'm starting to get more tired. I think it's because Oklahoma went from 75 degrees to 95 degrees in about a week.  Also, I have a crazy waddle going on.

 

I'm about to the point where I'll be taking pics with my shirt over my belly. My belly is large and in charge...and getting bigger!

 People always tell me I look like a teenager. The older I get, the more I appreciate that comment. 

2.  Friends don't let friends hold in their frustrations. Let it out and I'll listen. 

3.  A sunny day is perfect for golf, if you're my husband. I used to love laying by the pool, but I'm not sure about a bathing suit for me this summer. Maybe a long, slow walk with Norman. 

4.  My favorite accessory is my handsome husband.

5.  If I could afford it I would pay someone to decorate our house.

6.  The cure for boredom is get out. go somewhere. Even if you end up just people watching, it can be pretty fun.

7.  I am currently "in like" with coffee with cinnamon, the name Maggie, and that summer is quickly approaching. :)

Miscellany Monday

Oh, hey Monday. Nice to see ya again.

Hope everyone had a great Mother's Day!

or is it Mothers' Day? I don't know where to put the '.

*Nate got me a card for Mother's Day. Even though he said I don't meet all of the qualifications.

*Saturday, Nate smoked ribs and chicken thighs. We had his parents over to play golf (I drove the cart) and eat supper. I made PW's roasted garlic mashed potatoes. I cannot describe to you how delicious they were. I wish I would've put bacon and cheese in them. So, so good.

*I love bacon.

*We spent the rest of the weekend planting flowers, tomatoes, jalapenos, cucumbers, and herbs in the gardens. Go us.

*Raise your hand if you were up 7 times last night to pee. Oh...you mean that was just me?

1. What I love most about my home is the guy who is still in bed right now. (my husband) I'd be happy anywhere we were as long as we're together.

2. I'm excited because,  it's the weekend and we're finally going to plant some flowers.

3. My preferred method for blowing off steam when I'm frustrated is cuss. Then tell Nate Dawg or my mom or Brandi what's going on. It generally just takes me telling it once (maybe twice) before I'm over it.

4. Currently I am craving ...I just ate some delicious Fiber One, so nothing else sounds good right now. Yesterday I was craving pasta, but I think it was because I knew we were having garlic chicken pasta for supper. And it was delicious.

 

5. The thing I love most about my mom is   she is very, very selfless. She volunteers like a crazy person. She doesn't sit down to eat until everyone else has their food. She's just great.

6. If I was going to write a book about my life, the title would be ooooh that's tough. Maybe, She Has No Idea What She's Doing or Good Times, Good Times.

7. If I were to eat one thing for the rest of eternity it would be  pizza. I heart pizza.

What I'm Loving Wednesday

*I'm loving that I've actually gotten to see my husband this week! Last week was a bit rough with me being out of town early Thursday morning-late Sunday night.

*I'm loving that I got to go golfing with Nate Dawg yesterday. I didn't golf, I just rode. The weather was perfect.

*I'm loving that my boss lady is going to be on The Today Show today promoting her new book! Still think it's weird when I see her on TV.

*I'm loving that I got to talk to my big brother on Sunday. He's been deployed to a far away land for a few months and will be there for a while longer.

*I'm loving that I finished Something Borrowed and Belly Laughs the other day while I was stuck at the airport.

Both are great reads. Highly recommend them.
