Getting Registered

So far I've done a small registry on www.babiesrus.com , Registry #: 40897826

And one on Walmart.com

And one at Target too.

How it's going.

I will try to get the pictures scanned in so I can post them too but we had our 20 week ultrasound. Everything was great!! Baby is developing perfectly and is a total wiggle worm. Baby made it pretty clear on the ultrasound that she is a girl, let's hope she is more modest once born!!

Delilah is very excited about little sister and we are starting to get the house ready. Dug the crib and high chair and stroller ... etc. out of the garage and are trying to find places for them in the house where we can use them easily once baby comes.


On another front... Delilah is a month away from starting Kindergarten!! What!! Only a month!! She is really excited and totally ready to be rid of me during the day. Soon we will be getting the call from her teacher to come and meet her and let Delilah meet her and see the classroom she will be in. She is gonna do GREAT!

Nothing much else going on. We have some good pics from the 4th of July I plan on posting once they get onto the computer and again I will try to get those ultrasound pics scanned in.

Might have some news

I have a doctors appointment today. It's just a check up but maybe there will be something interesting to pass on to you all. I will post something tomorrow if there is anything worth reporting.

Work is going well at my new job (movie theater concessions person). It's pretty easy and it goes by fast because we are almost always busy.

I have an ultrasound scheduled mid June so hopefully we will know the gender at that point.

Nothing else really worth reporting.

Oh! The garage is getting a lot closer to being able to park in!! Another few days of work in there and we will be good to go!

It's going...

I realized today that it's been quite some time since I posted anything. As you can see from my new ticker at the top of the page there has been a lot going on!

We are now expecting a baby, due date Nov 6, 09. We are all very excited about this! Greg and Delilah love to argue over if it will be a girl (Delilah says) or a boy (Greg says). Everything is going well so far, no major issues.

This news has also made it more important to get the garage cleared out. That is where all the baby stuff is burried under who knows what else!

In other news Delilah is getting geared up for going to school this year. We go to register her May 1 at Glenn Arden Elementary. She is growing up so FAST! She just turned 5 but she acts like a mini 20 year old sometimes.

Updates will come as I remember not to be lazy... :)

There's no man like SNOW MAN!!

Here is Delilah posing with her first snowman of this winter! There was just enough snow to make him. He has twig arms...

A carrot nose....

And rocks for eyes and buttons. We had a lot of fun making him. Then Delilah decided it was time to throw snowball at eachother and she got me good!!

Oh, Just Something I Whipped Up!

I didn't really know what to do for dinner tonight. Greg wasn't feeling well and I really need to do some grocery shopping. He decided he wanted some Zaxby's so I thought on it and figured I needed to make something fresher for Delilah and me. The whole way to Zaxby's I was thinking about what I had at the house and what I might could make out of it. Here is what I came up with.

I made a real quick easy stir fry. Here's what I did:

I cheated and got two grilled chicken breasts from Zaxby's (cooking it yourself at home would be just as easy if you got it in advance). Then I cut up about 1/4 cup each of red pepper, green pepper, yellow pepper, orange pepper, and onion. I cut a medium size zucchni into small spears and diced about a tablespoon of fresh ginger. I threw all this in a pan with a little bit of sesame oil and some soy sauce. Seasoned it with some crushed mixed peppercorns then let it simmer for a while. Most of the sesame oil and soy sauce cooked into the food so I added an extra dash of soy sauce at this point to make sure the flavor is good. You can taste it first (I did) to see if it needs more. I didn't add much the first time so more was fine. While all this is going on cook some rice. I use the boil in a bag rice because it's a little easier and tastes just as good. Then serve it up!!

Delilah thought it was delicious and ate it up with no arguement. Even Greg said it looked really good and if he ate stuff like that he would try it!! It was really easy and didn't take very long to make and sure is a lot healthier than a frozen dinner or take out!

Then to finish off a good meal and to make sure we weren't too healthy we had some chocolate cream pie! Delilah had no problems finishing that off either.

How things are going

Greg's parents are in town for the week and we have been enjoying their visit a lot. I haven't gotten to see them as much as I would have liked because of having to work but Delilah sure is enjoying the time with her grandparents. We are spending some time with them tonight since I don't have to work and probably more over the weekend before they have to leave on Mon. morning.

I have changed jobs. I was working at Wal*Mart but my hours were cut down to 15 hours or less a week so I decided that a change was in order. I put in a lot of applications and got several calls back but weighing the pros and cons of each place I went with Ingles. It's very close to home so the commute is less than 5 minutes. I'll have a set schedule giving me every Fri and Sat off and plenty of hours! I just completed my first week there and it will take some getting used to but seems like it will be alright to carry me until Delilah gets in school next year. From there, we will see.

Also, for those of you that have been anxiousally awaiting them I have finally added pictures of the couch onto the post below. I'm sorry for the wait but there they are!
