CAUTION...not for the bashful or easily embarassed
The Polite Way to Pee
During one of her daily classes, a teacher trying to teach good
manners, asked her students the following question:
'Mike, if you were on a date having dinner with a nice young lady, how
would you tell her that you have to go to the bathroom?'
Mike said: 'Just a minute I have to go pee.'
The teacher responded by saying: 'That would be rude and impolite.'
'What about you Sherman, how would you say it?'
Sherman said: 'I am sorry, but I really need to go to the bathroom.
I'll be right back.'
'That's better, but it's still not very nice to say the word bathroom
at the dinner table.'
And you, little Barry, can you use your brain for once and show us
your good manners?'
Barry said, 'I would say: Darling, may I please be excused for a
moment? I have to shake hands with a very dear friend of mine, whom I
hope to introduce you to after dinner.'
The teacher fainted.

Alaska
We had a great time in Alaska with Jenny's family! We where able to see a lot of beautiful scenery! Here is a couple of photos. This is our first excursion in Juneau, Alaska. Todd caught a Silver Salmon for the first time ever in his few times fishing.
This is a real Bear print on our "hiking for bears" in Skagway, Alaska..our second excursion. We were in the wild picking strawberries that were so delicious to the taste. Even the little white ones were pretty sweet on the pallet.
Our Ship got really close to this breath taking Glacier which had some Sea Lions or Seals (not sure which) resting on the floating ice around us. Was too cold a day to be wearing my flip flops so I didn't stay out side for long.
Post card perfect picture that Todd actually took on Queen Anne's Hill over looking the Seattle skyline at night. So cool that the camera captured the reddish glow in the sky. Saturday, June 28, 2008
24 weeks Pregnant
These first two were taken today, which makes 25 weeks.
Here you go Liz, I am humiliating myself just for you. I hope it is appreciated by all who see it. I don't normally take pictures of myself, let alone with a belly. Just so you know I went to get another ultrasound yesterday and I was at 25 weeks so these pictures are a week old. I already feel like my belly has inflated even more.
My tests came back and I am not anemic nor do I have diabetes. That is good to know. The baby is healthy and doesn't have clef palit or however it is pronounced. She is definitely still a girl and an active one at that. She keeps her mom very aware of her existence. Sometimes I swear she is doing summer salts or cartwheels. Of course her favorite time to be the most active is when I lay down at night to go to sleep. Luckily, I've gotten pretty good at sleeping through most of it.
Boy I'll tell ya one thing for certain...I am more of a sissy than I thought. If I moan and scream with these 'round ligament' pains than I am in trouble come delivery time. You know the pain I am talking about. When the ligaments that support your uterus are stretching to accommodate its increasing weight. I just about crushed Todd's hand the first time I experienced this blissful feeling. I actually had real tears that time, but luckily last nights episode was not as extreme. Wow..can't wait for the indescribable pain to occur!

Very Late for Fathers Day
What can I say except this is typical of me. I wanted to post something to my adorable husband on Fathers Day but didn't and now it is late like everything else in my life. So sorry honey...this one is for you Babe!
Words can not describe accurately my feelings for my cute husband. He is so thoughtful and sweet all the time. I swear he is always thinking of what he can do to make my life easier. For example: He has been the one cleaning the house lately. Since I've been pregnant and go to work all day the last thing I want to do on Saturday is clean my Townhouse. I just want to spend time with him doing fun things. He is the cook of the household. As most of you know Todd enjoys cooking and is very good at it. He has recently gotten into the baking realm of the kitchen and, sorry to say, has passed me up by now. To give myself some credit he hasn't tried to make a mean loaf of banana bread yet, thanks honey, but that one's mine. He even gets up when I do to make me breakfast sometimes to make sure I eat well for both baby and me in the morning. I am usually in a rush in the morning because I love my sleep, a little too much perhaps.
He has such patience with me when I give him a full report of my pregnancy aches and pains. He even gives me back and neck massages when I should be giving them to him every night. The mood swings...awe where do I begin. The poor guy has endured many of those and am sorry to say they may get worse in the third trimester.
Most of all...is the excitement I feel when I think about the future and what lies ahead as this phase of our life unfolds. I am so blessed to be able to share all of them with you by my side Todd.
