Whoa. The time is flying.
I'm super tired. all the time. There is no apparent end to exhaustion. I'm also sad to report that I'm not one of those women who feels beautiful and "glows" while pregnant. I wish that were the case.
Just under 4 days to our 20-week ultrasound, when we hopefully get to find out if the little person is a prince or a princess. I'm so excited I can't stand it.
Had a massive organizing spree on my house this weekend. Maybe this is a good sign that a part of the real me is still hiding in here somewhere??? It's kind of hard to find her these days. :)
Happy Autumn!

a little something awesome.
I guess it's good I don't have many faithful blog followers...as I'm not very faithful about updating.
This time, I swear I really do have a good excuse. It's a very small something (right now). It's currently about the size of a lemon. And I don't know much about it - but it has affected my whole life...quite a lot.
Yep. There's a little person in the works. Currently, he/she is eating up about 115% of my energy, causing daily almost-constant nausea (9 weeks of this and going strong), and consuming just about all of my thoughts.
So you might understand why I've been slacking in other areas, like blogging.
The photos are from our ultrasound a couple of weeks ago. I'm pretty sure the little tiny kicking feet are the cutest thing I have ever seen in my life. So excited to meet this little person. Expected arrival - late February/early March 2011. Only a few months to go!
yay!

two.
Busy day yesterday...never quite got to the blog post.
Busy few weeks, actually. Sorry for the lack of communication.
Anyway - my awesome hubby and I celebrated two years of wedded bliss yesterday. I wanted to post some photos of the two of us but have discovered that apparently I never got those shots uploaded and I don't have access to them at the moment. New project!
If I remember, I'll post some pics from our mini-vacation this weekend. Lovely time spent at a quaint little B&B in Parkville, MO.

Thinking about the wedding scrapbook. Thinking. Not actually doing anything. But at least it's in my consciousness...

♥ to Andrew. Happy Anniversary!!

new york city...part 4 (finally)
Last day of adventure in the city! We started out bright and (somewhat) early on Monday morning.
Edison Hotel Lobby.
We traveled south on the subway to take a peek at the Flatiron Building.
It was neat! Wish it were open for tours or something.
Look what they have in the city - Home Depot! Craziness.
The Arch in Washington Square Park.
Loving all the architecture we saw!
Jefferson Market Branch of the NY Public Library. The building used to be a courthouse in the late 1800's/early 1900's. It was really neat.
But it's still just a normal library, with self-service holds pickup and even an upside-down S on their sign. :)
I love vacation. There's time to smell the flowers. :)
Riding the Miss Liberty ferry to visit the Statue of Liberty!
Lower Manhattan skyline.
Loving every minute!
Lady Liberty. I took about 60 photos of her...giving you just one.
After an arduous climb, we reached the top of the crown! It was a neat experience.
The view looking down the inside of the statue, from the crown.
We walked around the pedestal. It was really windy.
Souvenir coin! I love collecting pressed coins.
Eating hot dogs on the ferry ride back.
Scary storm that attacked us on the way back!
Classic plane ride home photo...after a stressful time of getting back to the hotel (had to run through Times Square), catching our shuttle, and waiting for several hours at the airport.
Goodbye, pretty city. I'm sure we'll meet again someday.

And this, friends, is why I fly Midwest Airlines. Chocolate chip cookies...baked in-flight. Excellent.
Whew. That's it! It was a fantastic trip. After looking at all these photos again, I'm wishing I had time to make this scrapbook! I'm afraid it may be awhile before that happens, though...

Thanks for traveling along with me! New adventures are hopefully coming soon. :)

Books and Movies and.... Tigers? Oh my.
The library is the place to be during the Summer Reading Program every year. For real. I mean, in addition to getting free books just for reading (which hopefully kids are doing anyway), we have all these awesome programs that enable kids to do things and witness sights that they might not have a chance to do or see often.
Today's example? The Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge paid a visit to us at CR. They brought two tigers - Mack and BB King. They're 2 years old and about 7 feet tall when standing on their back legs).
We had over 300 people in the library today, for the express purpose of visiting the "Big Cats."
Crazy.
Crazy.
