Praises of a Wife and Mommy

Me and my love! June of 2006

THANKS to all my blog followers!  It is super exciting to reach 200 followers! :)  I am super excited about blogging and reaching 200 in just a short few weeks!  :)  Excited to see it continue to grow! I think I may have to do some sort of giveaway when I hit a bigger number... hmmm!!  That would be fun! :)

I am so disappointed in the movie choices out there in the last couple weeks... or months! Last week I was thinking of going to a movie with a girlfriend but when we saw the choices in the theater we decided coffee house and shopping would have to do.  The choices were all Rated R and scary type movies.  There were no chick flicks or any other descent movie worth seeing. Then last night my hubby and I went to a Redbox to rent a movie and again we were disappointed with the choices.  TONS of Rated R movies!  We ended up renting "The Last Airbender" and "Marmaduke."  Both films were very entertaining and clean!  :)  I try to avoid movies with gross violence and swearing but I also try to avoid all the sex!  It has become an increasingly more difficult task to find a movie. I would love to see some less offensive movies come out soon!  CAN I GET AN AMEN!!!  ?? If you saw a really great movie please recom...

I had another doctor appointment yesterday morning as I started week 34.  I am getting so close I can't help but feel so many different emotions which include:  excitement to meet this lil boy, nervous about labor, curious as to what he will look like, joy because I know he will be here soon, and of course exhaustion because no matter who you are it is tiring on your body to be carrying a life inside of you! So I gained 3 pounds in 2 weeks!  I thought that was a bit much but the doctor said my weight looks good.  I blame part of my weight gain on this last weekend.   It seems when you hang out with teens it is give that you will eat a LOT and eat JUNK.  Camp food was yummy (i know this sounds strange but winter camp food is awesome)  they had fried Chicken on Saturday night-YUMMY!!!  Then they made delicious coffee cake for breakfast!!  Then my girls had some junk food in the cabins and I know I ate some chocolate...ok a lot of it...
