Alright ya'll, next Monday is the big day! Joe and I get to go to our 18 week ultrasound and find out what we are having(as long as the little one cooperates). So my question to you, dear readers, is what do you think I am cooking in here? Boy or girl? Please post your answer under the comments section.

I'm feeling like it's a girl....so we shall see....

Thirty, Flirty, and Pregnant!!

We spent my real birthday in the car on our way home from Destin, FL. Joe made me a super sweet card with a giraffe certificate to buy anything I want....hmmm.....

I wasn't feeling that great, so I slept most of the way home...I was looking quite scary I am sure...imagine my excitement {not!!!} when our friends and my dad were waiting to surprise me with presents and a cake as soon as we pulled into the drive way. Let me preface by telling you that I HATE surprise parties. Add that to the fact that I felt and looked like doggie poo. Well....I cried, blubbered is more like it. I was so mad at

Joe for having something planned when I didn't feel perfect. I'm sure it was the pregnancy hormones at work. I apologized later and I'm sure Joe was traumatized. I felt bad later for crying...he had tried to hard to do something nice and I went and cried like a crazy pregnant lady!

I got a new point and shoot camera from my dear old dad and Lindsey and Nick gave me a sock monkey lovie for baby Moske, some Stila lipglosses, and some perfume. We celebrated with an ice cream cake.

Beth and Kristy sent me this cute necklace that I had pinned on Pinterest.

Maybe 30 won't suck so bad after all...

Thoughtful Thursday!

I am loving Starbucks Caramel Apple Cider....so yummy!!

I collect pressed pennys from a lot of the places that we go. This is such a neat idea on how to show them off.

My neighbor gave me a Moby wrap today. Her baby hated it so she passed it to me...yay!

I am loving my husband and how hard he is working for us and our little family. He is working full time at FedEx and also flying on the side.
