Ten weeks to go...

Yep, just ten more weeks! I'm still feeling great, just tired. Have to admit, I'm getting pretty excited.

Peanut's room has been painted and the carpet shampooed. The crib and dresser/changing table have been ordered and should be here in 2-3 weeks. Everything is coming together quite nicely.

Our vacuum bit the dust last week. We purchased a dyson. It's awesome. I LOVE it. Aunt Shawn, now I know why you like your dyson so much.

Uncle Don, great to hear your project is coming along. Can't wait to see the completion pictures.
We have a wedding to go to this weekend in Madison. The girl that videotaped our wedding is getting married. The wedding ceremony is taking place in a theater. Pretty fitting considering she and her fiance' met in film class at Columbia. It should be fun.

Sami, how was Japan? Post some pictures for us to enjoy.

Aunt Terry, how is your foot? What kind of surgery did you have? How long are you off work? Hope you're better soon.

Have fun at the munch, brothers. It will be nice to visit with Margie. We'll be in Madison, so we'll miss the fun.

Have a safe 4th!!!

Love,
Missy

Room, Foot, and Home

Hello All,

We hope you're all doing fine! The Family room is almost done, it has some furniture inside now!!! We don't want to put all of it back, so we are debating what to do with it.

Terry has gotten an operation on her foot. She's fine, her toes are still a little bit grey, but nothing to worry about.

We all just got back from Norridge! We were looking at a retirement home for Marcie (Terry's mother). The apartment complex looked fabulous; very warm, welcoming, and cozy! :) We hope she moves this time...(for her saftey)

Hope to see ya'll soon,

Tornado

Hello All,

Yesterday was a bit scary for us. The tornado sirens went off twice around 8:00 pm. Naturally,
we went down to the basement. We later learned that there was a tornado spotted at 176 and Hawley. I read there wasn't any damage. We have the potential today for another round of storms. Thank goodness no one was hurt.

We planted our 3 tomato plants and 4 cucumber plants this week. I hope they grow.

Take care everyone and enjoy the warmer weather.

5 years and 6 months...

Hello all,

Here we are on our 5th wedding anniversary. Notice the beautiful flowers I'm holding??... They're from my wonderful husband. :)

We had a very nice day. We pulled weeds and did some planting of flowers in the backyard. We went to Chili's for dinner. On Thursday night, we went to see Stone Temple Pilots at an outdoor venue in the city, right next to the lake. It was a great time, but we were chilly.

And here I am 6 months preggo. I continue to feel pretty well, but tire very easily. Our little peanut has been quite active lately. It's still a surreal feeling.

I've been doing lots of spring cleaning/organizing since our neighborhood garage sale is this weekend. I hope it's a success. Then, we can begin to think about the baby's room.

Hope everyone is doing great and that Tommy's graduation gathering was lots of fun. Wish we could have been there. I'm happy to hear you enjoyed the Lou's pizza. There is no other. :)
Enjoy the Memorial holiday. I will be enjoying it at work.
Love,
Missy

All Saints Cemetery

Hi everyone:

This is one of the pictures from our trip to All Saints Cemetery last week. The Two flowers on both sides were chosen by the 4 brothers & wives. The big flower in the middle represents the grandchildren which was picked and generously donated by Bobby.

We're all doing fine! Terry is at work and is doing fine. Dana is doing great at school, she got a Teacher's Choice Award from one of her teachers at an assembly. I am almost done with the family room... We are anxiously awaiting our visit to Georgia and Tommy's graduation. See you then........

Happy 18th Tommy!!!

Hey Tommy,

Happy 18th birthday! I can't believe you're already 18. The older folks say, the older you get, the faster time flies. This is very true.

I can vividly remember babysitting you with Grandma and we would put you in your bouncy seat on the kitchen table and turn the fan on. You were mesmerized, making "Ooohhh" noises and sometimes even pointing. I also remember purposely waking you up so I could play with you. We had so much fun.

I hope you're having a wonderful day and that you have great fun celebrating your 18th!

Love Ya,
Missy

Tommy's Graduation

Hi There Everyone,

We hope everyone is doing well. Missy you look glowing. We look forward to the next report.

Happy Spring!!!
