38 Weeks!

A big thank you to my big sister for taking my Maternity Photos. We only have about 14 ish more day until our little one is here and I thought it would be a good idea to get our pictures done before the baby. SO we went out yesterday and it was a great day to take pictures. We went out to Jensen Nature Park in Syracuse and had some fun in the sun and got our feet a little wet.

Baby Allen Here is to You!

A big thank you to my great sister Linda, to whom through me a great baby shower. I had a great turn out. there it is always a great party when there is great people and food. So where we don't know what we are having we had a red and blue theme with a sock monkey. (Yes that's right a sock monkey.)  A really big thank you to all my family and friend that came to the party. It was great and we love everything we got! We could not have done it without all of you!

Oh My Where Has The Time Gone!

So I have been very bad at this. I know I said I was going to try and have a weekly/monthly update on the blog. And now it's 5 months later. SO HERE is the update. We are going to little bundle of joy join us around August 31 of this year. We have done so much to our house but still have a far way to go to have the house baby proof. But on the upside here is my weekly picture of the bump. There are some weeks that we forgot to get a picture, but the change is crazy how big (well in my case little) my bump is.

 I'm very happy to that we are going to adding to our little family of two. In August we'll be welcoming our little bundle of joy. But now with our little bundle of joy on it's way we're going to try more.  With what fun food I can eat and what weird things I like to eat. ANd we'll let you know about all the fun adventure along the way.

Here is our little Alien!

So the first 3 months were really not my friend. I really wanted to know why it was call morning sickness when it hit any time of the day. I was a bad time trying to find foods I could keep down. Our doctor was a little scared that I lost 10 pounds in 2 weeks. But to say the baby is in good health. And I know this is crazy but I don't want to find out what the sex of the baby is going to be, and it drives my husband crazy. So Here is our fun and happy news. We hope you have a great week.

Ton of love.

Our First Sunday Dinner!

So we have been married for two weeks now. It's kind of crazy how fast time can fly. But We had our first Sunday Dinner with our little family. It was so meal. We were able to use our new dishes for the wedding. So thank you to those that got us the Fiesta Wear. We did go with the Colbat blue and the Sunflower yellow, we did have the Ivory but it just didn't look right in our kitchen. But on the menu we had Ribeye Stake with fresh green beans, bake potatoes, and salad. With our Stakes we don't have a grill so we cook them on our George Foreman.

Green Beans:
1-2 lb. fresh green beans
1 Tbsp. Butter
1 Clove of garlic minced

Place butter and garlic in sauce pan on medium hear until butter is melted.
Then add green beans and cook 5-6 minutes
Take off heat and enjoy.

It wasn't much but, our little family loved it. Here is to many more Sunday Dinners and the years to come. Enjoy!

THE FLU SHOT!

What can I say about a flu shot, I HATE SHOTS. Okay so it's not that bad to get a flu shot, I think I just scare myself when it comes to needles. There really are not that bad. And when you have friends with you to get the flu shot it's not so bad. I did have a fun time at my office getting a flu shot.
They did have a little heath fair with it. At our health fair there were a lot for fun things to do. Like we got our blood pressure taken ( I was a little high but a lot better then I have been in the pas.t)
We had the change to get our body fat and Digital Scale Readings, and let me tell you they can tell you not only your Weight in pounds but your Body fat (this was a different body fat test), your body water %, Muscle mass, physique rating 1-10 (the higher the number the better). M.B.E. (Basal Metabolic Rate) for those of us not in the medical field that is how many calories your body burns off a day, your Metabolic Age, and your Visceral Fat that's belly fat.
We learn more about sugary drinks and the kind of fat you should have. We did get some fun stuff with the fair. So give the health fair a try. Yes there may be thing you don't want to know, but in the end they could save your life and your family could enjoy more time with you.
So all in all we did have fun getting our Flu Shot. It is hurting a little but that's our body at work so we don't get sick.

Tons of  Love,

11 Days Away

I can't believe it the time has gone by so fast. It feels like just yesterday I met the love of my life and now in 11 days we will be married. There is so much that still needs to be done. But it will get done. We order the cake that's the good news and I just put the last of the wedding invitations in the mail ( yeah they are getting out kind of late.) And our umbrellas will be in at the end of the week. I'm working on different cupcake recipes to try the week as well so I'll have a post a day on a cake cup. I've started to write a love note a day to Johnny, and will be giving it to him the before the wedding for him to read. I hope it will all go well and if not it was fun planing a wedding. So here is to the next 11 Days of being the Bride-To-Be!

Tons of love.
