Happy Belated Father's Day...

To all of you daddios out there...I'm sure that one of the only father's that reads my blog is my very own...Thanks Dad. Thanks for holding me accountable with my beloved blog.


This distinguished, salt and peppery haired guy is one of the finest dads around.


He is a hard worker, very dedicated to his company, his employees, his associates and his customers. A rare find these days...I really do love you, David.



this guy is my dad...you can see where I get some of my good looks. :) and my beard.



He is not only a fine father, but a stupendous grandpa. Molly's cherubic face pretty much sez it all.

And this is where I should put some pix of my father in law, Carl, but unfortunately, I don't have many pix of him floating around. So here's to you, Carl...Thanks for instilling some amazing character into your firstborn son. We are eternally grateful for your involvement in our husband's/dad's life.

Last but most certainly not least, I am so thankful for my Heavenly Father...His mercy endures forever and He is my strength. Now, if He'd just push the button to get #6 out, I'd be sure to shout from my very own rooftop just how much I love Him. Which I should do anyways...but it's kinda dangerous in my fragile condition. Thank You, Lord, for saving my wretched soul!

Happy Father's Day, Guys!!

So, yeah, Will has poison ivy. David is coming down off the sickness/work too much for one's own good high. Molly keeps tinkling in her pants. Levi ruined his fairly new sandals on the treadmill tonight. Melanie is loving her new bike. I'm still flipping pregnant. I'm at the stage now where you SWEAR you will never ever (let's hope D's surgery was successful) want to have another baby. Still numb in my ribs, baby's not moving about as much, which leads me to believe he is hunkering down and getting ready to "head" out. ha ha. Braxton Hicks are getting more intense and general discontent and irritability is at an ALL TIME HIGH. watch out!

The way I've felt today, lack of breath, general laziness mixed with spurts of energy, weird aches, cause me to wonder if THIS is the night. Pop goes the weasel. Please pray for me...the general funk that is settling over me and my house is disconcerting. just down right weird. David and the kids prayed for me tonight...whatta gang.

So I guess until Jack shows up, my posts will be pretty repetitive and for that I am sooo sorry. I can't wait to put some pics on here of our new fella. I'm soooo ready to meet him, see his sweet little face. Just CAN'T wait. <>

gotta go finish some worky stuff for my hubs and go lay back down on my bed. Fingers, toes crossed for a baby party TOMORROW. too much to ask? prolly. o well. Hope this finds you well...hugs!

These pix really have nothing to do with this post...

This is me, in a nutshell, lately. well, for the past ooohhh, year, year and a half. or more. You can view this picture and more amazing face shots on my brother Tom's Facebook wall...where he has FOUR riveting volumes of razzle dazzle photos of this person or that. Heck, you may even be in it, and not know it.



My bottle job. I really prefer a professional job but ya can't argue with $8. I am in the midst of growing out my mop...and the mega roots were too much.

I just wanted to show up on my blog for a minute...forgive the self portraits. these are for my kids.



Hi.

How are ya?

Ya know, things are going really well here. Nothing too exciting, but nothing damaging either. That is just the way I like it. God is good, good times and difficult and we continue to be thankful for experiences, situations, moments, where that really shines thru. Thank You, Lord!

I'm a loser though.

We went to Illinois yesterday and there were ALL KINDS of photo ops. and I didn't take a one. (well, I take that back, I did take ONE photo and I hope to upload it to iPhoto later and post it but, heck, I'll prolly forget)...We celebrated Father's Day with David's Dad, Mom and almost all 7 of his siblings (minus Aaron. Hey, where was Aaron?). Katrina was there also...she is Matt's (David's twin bro) lady. She is downright gorgeous!

the main reason I failed at pic taking is this. IT WAS FLIPPIN' HOT, folks. I don't function at 100% on most days and when u toss in some suffocating heat? yeah, I shut down to, say, 50%. I did manage to keep my kids alive, so that is a good thing. :)

It was a lovely day and so nice to celebrate with Carl, David's dad. He loves Roy Orbison, Patsy Cline music, Traveling Wilbury's, Hank Williams Sr, and he even got some Johnny Cash.

Good food, good fellowship, a dip in the pool to subdue the Ring of Fire burning 'round me. I'm hot.

A good weekend was had by all...and we hope to get to celebrate my Father this week...I do hope our fathers know just how loved and appreciated they truly are. Such a testament to faithfulness they both are!

Have a super week...

Whatta couple of nice looking dads we both have...and isn't it funny that they celebrate their birthdays within one day of each other...David's dad is one year older than my dad so they are the same age for one day. ha. funny. man, I'm deep. October 25th and 26th.
Here's to you, Carl and Jim...thanks for being so dependable, and for taking such good care of us.
Happy Birthday Dad G. and Dad Y.!
