Disclaimer: My camera has still not been sent out to be fixed. I am working with Emma's camera. We took Davis to the ball game the other night. It was his first time to go. He did very well and had a good time. I did take a few pictures of Davis at the game but it was with my camera phone. Which takes worse photos than Emma's camera. Mark took some with his phone and I think his may be better. He has yet to e-mail them to me though. We got free t-shirts at the game. Even Davis. The smallest shirt you can get is an adult medium. But it is his shirt. Today he decided he wanted to wear it. He also found his dad's cleats, ball glove, and hat. So Davis said he was going to play ball. I had to take a picture of him because it was too incredibly cute not too. And if I had a program like Photo Shop I might have been able to manipulate the photos even more and make them look better. I did my best.

Here is the 29 week shot. Yes, I have considered not taking anymore photos. For one, my camera is still not working (no I have not mailed it off yet to the powers that be). Emma's camera takes not so great pictures. And I need all the help I can get. Second, I am beginning to look beat down. Seriously. However, what do I tell the child? I did not take ANY with the other two kids. I can lie to them. I did not take them because I did not think about it, it what I will say. One day they might get the real reason: I knew I would get huge and was afraid if I saw pictures of myself I would never have another child. And if you looked like this with 9-10 weeks still to go, you might feel the same way. So Kiki, if you are checking, no it is not the angle. There is no good angle right now. Cover the boys eyes or warn him before he looks.

Here is 28 weeks. Excuse the photo, my camera has to be mailed in to the Gods that be at Fuji. It is funky. So once again, we used Emma's camera. Right now I am not sure that any camera really matters. Yikes. And yes, I am going to start telling people I was due in July. Then they will shut up and wipe that stunned look off thier faces they usually have when I say, "November."

I have been absent around here lately. I think in part because I am not sure what to say. What is at the forefront of my mind is not easy to admit and discuss. And my computer is being all sorts of crazy. And I am worn out. My understanding is that this baby is due November 12. And besides the fact that lately I am existing on Velveeta Ro-Tel dip and watermelon (don't ask...........no they are not eaten together) I am at 28 weeks, so technically 12 more weeks to go. And freaking out. I have said to people that this has thrown me off. But I have not said all that I am feeling about it. Overwhelmed. Not sure. Hard time bonding with the baby. I am just not doing well with it this time. I feel more like a first time mom than a third time mom and I am not sure what my problem is. I wanted another child and this one was planned the same as the other two were. I have wanted another since Davis was six months old, so for three years. It happened quickly this time and if anything I should b

Here is a link to that Yo Gabba Gabba .... (and in the preview, if you watch it all the way, you see Mark come out) What is the world coming too?

This morning we turned on Noggin. There is some new show on called Yo Gabba Gabba. Fair enough. We sit and watch it some. Anyone know anything about this show? I sit and some man named Mark comes on and says we likes to draw. He is standing in font of a blank frame. He then takes out this black marker thing and begins to draw in the frame. No connecting the dots but drawing and his marker makes noise. Um, HELLO!? They totally stole Picture Pages. I assume that I am not the only one who remembers Picture Pages with Bill Cosby. I have a horrific memory. How can these people steal Picture Pages?

I got my first reunion CD of pictures today. (Thanks Chris!) I may have to remove this photo if my sister says so. But I saw this picture of my sister, me and my niece and thought, "Wow, we kind of look a like." More so than I thought. So here you go.... (save my protruding belly of course) My sister, me and my niece..... Profile shot mostly.............Kiki if you want it taken down, let me know. In the mean time, did you know we all looked this much alike?

My digital camera has an attitude. So this belly shot was taken with Emma's camera and therefore the quality is not as great. (If anyone has an ideas what is wrong with my camera, let me know. I put in new rechargeable batteries once the other ones died. It will turn on as in I can view pictures on my card, but once I move it to take a picture it shuts off. The powers that be at Fuji tell me the only thing to do is send it to them and have them look at it. Oh, it is a Fuji FinePix S5200, if that helps.) Week 25 I was at the lake and did not get a belly shot. I am sure there are pictures of me from the lake. Last week I took a shot of my belly naked. It is scary. If you want to see it, e-mail me. It is too horrific to post it on the net. So here we are at week 27. Please excuse the look on my face. I kept this one and choose it because it most accurately conveys how I am feeling right now. And yes this is a maternity top that no longer really covers all of me. Get over it. I am huge

My family has a reunion. Every year. For a week. Last week was the scheduled time for said family time. I threw my kids in the car along with a few belongings, only half of my swim suit, and off we went. A little under five hours later we arrived at our new site for the Seventh Annual Reunion. I usually get odd looks when I say we do this. For a week....every year. It is okay, I know people are just jealous. How many people know, actually know their extended family? My kids have so many grandma's, grandpa's, aunts, uncles and cousins. We do not bother with breaking it down by actually being second cousins twice removed or whatever. They are all just cousins. As a result of the yearly get together, and yes this was the seventh year in a row we have done this, my kids have an additional nine cousins (my cousins kids). They have an additional seven aunts and uncles (my cousins). An additional three grandparents (my aunts and uncle). And they know their great grandpa
