"Sooo Like...

...this means we are going to have a new Aunt, right?"

"Duh!"

Last FRIDAY THE 13th my brother, the NINJA, proposed.

As you can imagine the grandkids were all TOO eager to help in anyway they could, the only tricky part was keeping them contained and quiet while Les was on her mini-scavenger hunt around town.

I DO have to admit that their conversations were hilarious...

We are pretty excited. CONGRATS YOU TWO!

SHIRTS READ: "Will you marry my Uncle Tyler?"

We decided to give T-shirts a go after THESE were such a hit at the Ninja's missionary airport arrival...

SHIRTS READ: "I waited for my Missionary!"

***My only RECOMMENDATION with the shirts is to not go with the cheap brand [Avery, I think] of transfer from Wal-Mart, as the Ninja's face was falling off of the proposal shirts before the proposal.

For the airport shirts, I used the brand from Jo-Anns...much better to work with and two years later some of the shirts still look new!

Go Ahead and Pay It Forward

I am still here.

No baby yet.

Have NO FEAR, I will keep you posted.

I did however, received this little gem in the mail last week from my friend Katie.

She did a thing awhile back on her blog about a little thing called Pay It Forward. And since I was one of the first three to comment on her blog, she made me this cute bracelet for Pammy [she also sent me a delicious pretzel, but let's be honest I wasn't going to wait all that long to take a picture before I ate it, she also sells her cute jewelry HERE]

And because I was the recipient of such fine gifts, I have decided to Pay It Forward...the FIRST THREE people to leave a comment on this post will be the recipient of a fun gift from me.  

All you have to do is promise to do the same once you receive my lovely gifts, hopefully it'll be sooner than later!

[More rules HERE]

What are you waiting for? Leave a comment and get ready to received something sweet!

B is for Baby Pamela?

Or is it for BIRTH?

Apparently I spoke to soon, my doctor decided today that he would like to see Pamela born sooner than later...so I'm thinking everyone that guessed March dates might want to think again, as actions were taken today to quicken up the BIRTHING process.

**As always there is a possibility things might not happen soon, but I will forgive anyone who guessed March dates if they want to go back and guess a February date.

Lastly the Don got mad at me on Sunday for not taking any full-body pictures...

So please excuse the bed head...

The stain on my shirt...

And the crazy camera angle...

37 weeks, we have arrived!

Help, I Need Somebody

So I've put together this cute blanket for Pamela and I've tried my hardest to bind the thing [3 times to be exact] and nothing has really worked.

I am at my wits-end, people.

Anyone out there know a good tutorial, be willing to mentor me, or want to finish the binding for me??

[You can even still see my latest/failed attempt in the photo, boo!]

Where The Sagebrush Grows

My love of the game goes way back to the days when I played...

I never mentioned looking good while while playing...but I loved it, and I still love watching it. 

Going to Aggie basketball games has always been something that Don and I enjoy doing together, even before we were married.

So you can only imagine how excited we both are now that we know Pamela enjoys the game as well. 

How do I know this?

Because Pamela mastered the Scotsman at the game last night and we have been working on it all season.

[Sorry the video is not the best, if you are unfamiliar with the Scotsman it basically looks like the crowd is milking a cow.]

I'm really going to miss going to the games and having my belly go crazy with all the noise, there really isn't a feeling quite like it. 

However, if she did come anytime soon I don't think I'll complain one bit.

Baby Got Back CONTEST

Let's go ahead and guess how big Pamela will be when she is born and ready for her car seat, hopefully she is already bigger than Olympic Mascot Bunny. 

While we are at it, let's guess what day and time of that day she will be born.

**Winner will receive a prize depending on their gender and willingness to receive a prize.

HELPFUL HINTS: 

-MY DUE DATE IS MARCH 7, 2009

-I started going in for my weekly visits today, I am progressed more than the average person at 36 weeks, but my doctor assured me that this does not necessarily mean Pamela will come early.

-AVERAGE WEIGHT OF A NEWBORN 7 1/2 lbs

-WEIGHT I GAINED DURING PREGNANCY --- Umm NGH (not going to happen, people)

-Last Friday I was informed that Pamela could be verging on 8 1/2 lbs if carried to full term, however that came from a stand-in doctor.

-When BORN I weight 4 lbs 11 oz, DON weighed 9ish lbs.

HAPPY GUESSING! 

Let's Go Outback Tonight

Don't know about your Super Bowl experience but mine went a little something like this: we ate lots of food, laughed about pregnancy stuff, ate more food, discussed REAL names for Pam, ate cookies and then made hair bows for Pam.

[All done while wishing I was in my sweat pants, you know so I could eat more food...thank goodness for Sals who brought the Fiesta dip to replace my imitation Taco Dip, my pregnant belly was very thankful]

Who won again?
