A little more than a year ago

It's crazy to think about what we were doing a year ago!  It's been a busy year. 
October 3rd: Farmboy proposes
October 4th: The planning and dreaming goes full force
November 26th: I get another year older
December 25th: A really great Christmas season celebrating with both our families
March 2nd: Farmboy hits the big 30
April: Bridal Shower season, we have 3 showers
May 22nd: I become Mrs. Farmboy
June 1st: I go back to work with the itty bitty kindercampers
July ?: We went on our honeymoon... is it sad that I can't remember the date??
August: We both go back to school to start a new year (my 6th, his 9th)
October: Roofing our humble home, not a superfun experience but a needed one :)

And the roofing project continues... it goes on and on and on!

So this past weekend we started reroofing our house.  My hubby and dad started tearing off the shingles on Thursday, and we were still ripping it all off Saturday.  We lost some of our help due to stupid stuff, but I won't go into that drama!  Anyway, we're still working on it!  So ready for it to be done.  Of course it stormed on us Monday.  I ran around like a crazy lady with buckets, and every single mixing bowl I own.  It's all getting better now, at least it's dry!  OK, ladies sorry for my b-fest.  I'll post again soon, hopefully something more exciting.

Preggo here, preggo there, babies babies everywhere

It seems like there are all sorts of people getting knocked up lately.  :)  My best friend, the waitress at dinner the other night, about 800 people I pass at the mall, lots of bloggy friends, even Angela from my favorite show Bones.  I couldn't be more happy for them all.  Especially the bestie.  :)  That plus my new adorable nephew is giving me a slight case of baby fever.  We even saw a couple really precious puppies at the soccer game last weekend. 
Anyway, since I've got baby fever hubster and I have been talking baby names, baby things, even ideas for how we'll tell our family when we get around to having our own.  The last one has been the most fun conversation lately, trying to come up with some really different fun way to break the news.  So I want to know.... How did y'all tell your families and friends?  If you haven't yet, have any good ideas?  FB and I have a pretty good idea chosen, but I love hearing other ideas.

School is now in full swing

Sorry it's been a while since my last post.  Nothing too exciting going on for us... just getting into the new routine.  It's hard going back to work when you've been out of the routine for a couple months.  Farmboy and I had a good labor day.  We just spent time with family and took a day trip to the "big" city to shop.  I really wanted a new raincoat, but we didn't find one I liked.  So today I ordered one online.

OK enough random info!  Hope you have a great weekend!

From spiders to snakes, from baby shower to babysitting

Last time I mentioned finding a spider, well a couple days ago we found a snake!  Luckily he wasn't under the bed.  FB and I had just gotten home from shopping, both with arms full w/ sacks.  He was stepping out of our garage when I saw a ginormous black snake laying across the threshold of the garage door.  Right under FB's feet, I of course scream.  This sends FB flying, then I was shut inside the garage alone, with no way out!  I'm a little panicky at this point, thankfully FB was a little calmer now that he realized it was just a snake.  He calmly told me to open the big garage door.  This provided me a way out, and provided FB a way in so he could take care of the snake!  I'm so not a fan of the country life right now!  Spiders, snakes... what's next??

I got the shower invitations in the mail Monday.  Now all that's left is food, drinks, and decorations... OK wow I've got a lot to do.  I am babysitting all day today and tomorrow.  I was a little nervous that the lil' guy would be cranky or hard to keep happy or any other number of problems.  Luckily day one's almost complete and no major catastrophes.  He's refusing to sleep in his basinet, but he's sleeping just fine with me.  Probably not exactly what his mama would prefer, she's all about the schedule.  Anyway, we're having fun, and I believe it's almost time for a bottle.  So I'll end this blog, and see you again soon.
