Flowers at the zoo

I am putting up some old posts that I never published with pictures of flowers since I am in the mood for spring and I haven't had a chance to sort through any of my pics from the last couple months.  I am hoping to do that soon.
These were taken during the spring '10 on one of our visits to the zoo. I don't go there for the animals alone...



















Happy Roses

A few more pretty flowers to look at to tide us over until spring...

9 Months and Counting

I have pictures to catch up on but I am honestly so tired and busy doing other things I have not had time to play around on the computer too much.  Now that I have officially hit the 9 month mark I am feeling a little stressed (okay, A LOT stressed) about getting everything done to get the house ready to sell before the baby comes.  Physically I am so ready to meet the new little guy.  Emotionally and mentally I think I would have a mental break-down if he were to come early (which I am not too concerned about since I have gone over with both my other boys.)  Once this (nameless) little guy enters the world it is going to be a whirlwind of epic proportions with Todd taking clinical boards, graduating, family reunions, selling the house, finding another place to live, Todd leaving me for a month while he does Officer Training, MOVING (ugh...), getting settled in, having Fisher start Kindergarten...It is going to be one massive non-stop adventure.  I don't think I am ready for it all.  I need more time.  But then I feel my back pain and sciatica and ab separation and this little chub's PAINFUL movement and I think "How I am going to make another 4 weeks of this??"  Despite all of our fears and stresses we are SO excited to meet this sweet baby and we are so excited to move on to the next phase of our life. We truly are.  That is not to say we won't be relieved when it is over and we have survived.  :)  That is all my ranting for now.
