What a miracle!

There are just no words to explain seeing your own child growing inside of you for the first time....


This one...he/she is waving to us. Goose says he/she is putting their 'guns up' for Texas Tech Red Raiders! Whatever!


This one shows the head and body...I know...12 weeks you can hardly make out anything, but in real live action...it's perfect!


This one, the doctor was measuring...7 cm long!

we're moving!

Yep, we are! Researching houses/cities/states/countries to move to! Somewhere in this great world has to be a place that has NO EIGHT LEGGED CREATURES that we call spiders. Somewhere....

First, I go outside today to check the mail...neighbors are outside. Wife is holding a cup with plastic over it...BIG, HUGE, HAIRY tarantula that her two young boys found across the street. Then, I decide to wash a load of towels. I'm putting them in the washing machine and BIG, HUGE one comes out from the towels and under the washer he goes! I scream for Goose and he comes running. He sprays Off under there because that's all we could find. THEN, I decide to take a shower. I'm enjoying a nice, hot shower and BIG, HUGE one is hanging from my poof ball! GEEZ! oh, That's not all! I get out of the shower and walk into the kitchen...BIG, HUGE one just sitting there! Poor Goose...he's my hero tonight.

We're getting Kirby and moving--no packing, because they'll come with us...any suggestions on a good location without eight legged creatures???????

Rain, Rain....

Don't go away....for the past couple of days we've woken up the most beautiful rain showers. It's so refreshing! Here are some results of the rain...

Much better with words....

Oh my lordy....

One of my dear friends has a blog of her own and let me say, she's much better with words (she ought to be...she teaches English)....but she stinkin' cracks me up sometimes!

Here is her latest....
read this one first.....then read this one on cellular phones and teenagers!
