Our Little Girl!

I'm still amazed by how defined her spine is. It looks so real.



So, most of you now know that we are getting a little girl! Eric and I are both excited and Eric is already referring to her as his little princess. But here are some pictures of the ultrasound. I'll also put some of me on soon but our photographers are down in Houston and neither Eric nor I possess any skills. So sorry.

Technology

So I know I haven't posted for a long while but nothing interesting has been happening! But today I got a great phone call from my little brother Adam who is currently stationed in Korea. He started by describing his phone system to me a little. For just $30 a month he can talk to the US as much as he wants but for just $10 more he was able to get a US phone number so we can talk to him as much as we want! I don't know how good that will be for him but I know I am thrilled!! He did try to teach me how to know what time it is for him but I don't know how well the lesson sunk in?
For all those who wish to talk to him though his new number is (916)525-7468. He says he is available any time after five and all the time on weekends. Technology is amazing that it has progressed so far to make this work!But I'm so grateful.

My Brilliant Chef!!


While I have known that Eric's cooking abilities don't compare with professional chefs or anything I had always thought that they were okay. Last night I was proved wrong. I had to work late but was really wanting to have some Jello (its low-fat and sweet!). Now my husband being as sweet as he is was totally okay with making it when he got home. Having never really made Jello before he looked at the box and saw the first direction and quickly went to work. That night when we went to have Jello, Eric tells me how perfect he made it because the Jello was fairly solid and could totally maintain its shape when moved from one place to the other. The only problem was the lime flavor was just a touch overwhelming! When it comes to cooking, he and I both have a terrible habit of reading the first instruction and then assuming our way through the rest. So minor problems occur such as forgetting that second cup of water! It still worked out but we had to add a lot of whip cream to balance it out (so much for low-fat!).

Baby Jackson!!!


So, I went in for my monthly visit on Monday and we had fun because we got to hear the heartbeat and see the baby! She printed off a picture but because of the way the baby was turned it wasn't very clear. Hopefully next time it will be better. The doctor did say that the baby has a good heartbeat and good size. Just what I wanted to hear. We even got to see the baby moving around while we were watching and that was exciting!

Personality Quiz

Here is a great personality quiz I was given. It was fun because it really described both Eric and I perfectly! Have fun because we did!

So my friend sent me an email with lots of fun things about Texas. This was on there and I thought it was cute!

Our Little Devils

So we've been having a lot of fun with our little pets. They have thoroughly enjoyed pushing us to our limits...
First Devil: BELLA This pet is having a great time trying to get Izzie in trouble. For the last few days she has been avoiding her own litter box and feel free to relieve herself any where she chooses, which we first mistook for Izzie only to later discover it was her.

Second Devil: IZZIE
Now somehow this timid little dog has gotten quite a bit of courage. She is learning to think with her stomach versus her conscience and has learned to climb chairs. Who would have thought my dog would enjoy eating like we but oh, indeed she does.
