Just as good as I remember

It's no secret that I love Diary Queen's cotton candy blizzards, but the Diary Queen by my house no longer carries them. After having a rough evening and morning I was pleasantly surprised to come into work and receive a LARGE cotton candy blizzard from a co-worker of mine. The blizzard is delicious, sweet and yummy. Thanks Nicole you made my day!

makeover time!

I was bored at work, surprise and stumbled across the website yearbookyourself.com and I found it quiet amusing. You upload a picture of yourself and goes thru the years as to how you might look. I'm pasting a picture from the 70s, 80s, 90s, and 2000. I had a little trouble finding a picture close to the rest size and because my face is tilted a little I could use any of the pictures with glasses as I looked like someone just knocked them off my face!


I have to say that I can remember people definitely having bangs in 2000, but these seem a bit extreme. My favorite picture is the 90's with the puffy hair, hoop earrings, and I think my face fits in the spot the best! Hope you enjoy!
P.S. I decided to give my blog a mini makeover to match the theme.

baby romig!



Here is the most recent ultrasound picture of the baby! We had an appointment on Friday and they said everything looks great and the baby is measuring right on time. Due date is March 24, 2009 (I'm a little over 11 weeks). My stomach is definitely starting to grow and my regular waist pants and skirts are no longer comfortable. Morning sickness is awful as I experience mostly at night, but yesterday I had it all day, yuck! I keep reminding myself it will all be worth it once the baby is here.

moving day is almost here

Disregard the last post, Fort Belvoir housing is a bunch of morons and we now have a newer, nicer house to move into. They are coming to pack us up tomorrow and move us on Friday!! I have been told that there is a weight limit (it is apparently based on your rank) hopefully we don't go over this because then we will have to pay. I only mention this because when the guy came to do the pre-move inspection to see how much stuff we had, he said we had a lot. After that I decided we could get rid of something things so I donated 6 bags of stuff to the Lupus foundation. Whoever invented that these charities come to your house and pick up your donations is a genius, I love it!
Also, I have a doctor's appointment on August 4, hopefully it will be followed with good news!

homeless

We will not be moving on Fort Belvoir. They called us today to tell us the current tenants have decided not to vacate the property that we were scheduled to move into in 2 weeks! We are now homeless. We gave our landlord notice quiet some time ago, so now the search begins.

brief update


Happy Belated 4th of July! I hope everyone had wonderful cook-outs and great fireworks to watch. My niece Audrey James was born on Wednesday July 2, so I think I might call her a little firecracker from now on, especially if she takes after her mother. Our 4th was uneventful, just had a cook-out with the family and set off our fireworks.
Saturday we went to see The Lion King at the Kennedy Center and it was AWESOME!!! It totally surpassed all my expectations and Chris' too. I'm not sure why but in the beginning when the animals are all walking in and they are singing "The Circle of Life" I got a little teary, it was touching although I'm not sure why.
We bought a Mac on Saturday and I think this is probably one of the best purchases we have made in quiet some time. Our old computer was a piece of garbage and took forever to do anything, so the Mac is a pleasant change. I would compare the old computer to a 1990 something Hyundai, not reliable and you never know when it's going to stop running on you and the new computer to a nice, shiny Lexus, definitely an upgrade.
First RESOLVE meeting is tomorrow night, I'm a little skeptical, but also looking forward to going and hearing everyone story.
