HATS ON!


Today, I had a girls night dinner planned with a few of my friends. We had dinner planned at Simply Fondue and it was great! My first time having fondue. To my pleasant surprise the girls were waiting for me with birthday hats! Yeap tomorrow I turn THIRTY FIVE! Dinner was lots of fun and it was sooo good! The chocolate was just delicious! Kelly and Jamie made the birthday hats. Each hat had different pictures drawn on them. They made one of me and one of Millie. Jamie did a great job drawing me.....hehe......I went home and tried the hat on Millie. I will post the dinner pics once I get them from Kelly.

Circus Act




I think Millie could have been in the circus! HAHA No but she is soooo good! Not because she's our dog but she really does listen and understand us when we want her to do something. So after coming home with gifts I wanted to incorporate a gift with her and take a picture. My idea was for her to stand on the bucket, took a few tries until she realized that what I wanted is for her to stand on the bucket and she did just that. What do you think?

I left one gift once again for Matt to open, we go through the items after I come home all over again so he can see what we got.

Matt and I found our church home a couple of years ago. We've been going to Bear Creek Bible Church and have really enjoyed getting to know the members and being part of the church. Today, the ladies hosted a baby shower for me and it was great! I had a great time getting to know new people and actually putting a face to the names since I am part of the ladies e-mail group and see correspondence from several of them. Summer was the person that presented the devotional and it was sooo nice and appropriate! I liked it!
Here is a picture of Melisa, me and Mary they are the ones that arranged the shower.

Lockheed Friends




Yesterday, 3 of my co-workers (Charlotte, Tracey and Vicki) hosted a baby shower and it was GREAT! To say the least! I invited the guys and all the people around my area during lunch. The girls made sandwiches, served tea and a homemade cake by Helen and cupcakes by Elizabeth! It was all so great! They decorated in ABC's and primary colors since that's our baby's nursery theme. I opened gifts and everyone was just so generous!

Once I got home I took my time in opening the gifts and cards with Matt. I left a gift so Matt could open. We set the mobile up and started thinking out where all these things were going to go. Today is Matt's last day of summer school so he'll be working on making room for Baby Stokes! I'm sooo happy that he's agreed to combine the office and guest bed! YAY! We're feeling the time crunch now! OOPS maybe we should have started all this sooner! HEHEE

Millie was not left out of the gift opening either! OF COURSE! I had to combine gifts and Millie so that's what the picture above shows! I HAVE the CUTEST DOG EVER!!!!

Off Center


Over this past weekend I fell by missing the curve as I tried to step on it. I twisted my ankle and landed on my other leg's knee. So I went on with my day, my limp and my slight waddle! My ankle ended up getting worst throughout the day so I decided to go home and take it easy. I went and took a shower and afterwards slipped and fell AGAIN! 2nd time I did land on part of my belly but not too bad......I did try to catch myself. After all that I did decide to no longer be moving around much.....


Next morning I decided to do a load of laundry before church and as I reached for the detergent I accidentally dumped the whole box in the washer! GRRRR! I just hope the rest of my week goes much better than what this weekend was.
Currently I am 33 weeks along. Baby is doing fine....we are on an every 2 week basis dr. visit.
Just another random picture of Debbie and me at Hurricane Harbor last summer.

Belly Casting


Today, I went over to Rick and Kelly's to get a belly (or body) casting. It was very interesting, I was VERY curious to go through the process and to my pleasant surprise it was very fast and easy. The completed product will not be available for a while......the cast has to set overnight and depending on their schedule they won't be able to move on with it. Stay tuned for more pictures.


**I added pics from Amarillo Shower to my picture blog.
