Can you feel me now?

I had a really horrible night’s sleep Saturday. I woke up early Sunday morning (3:32 a.m. to be exact, since I went to the kitchen to drink some water and saw the time on the Stove/Microwave) to some wicked pressure in my middle region. It felt like a huge beach ball was blown up in my stomach…. I walked around, sat up in bed and finally went upstairs to try and study since I was already awake.

Carl woke up and asked how I felt. We were just laying in bed and I told him that I wish I could just go to sleep. He asked is Rozi was being a crazy dancer and I said, “Yes, she’s moving around.”

Of course being a first time daddy, he reached over and said, “Is she moving?” and I told him yes. He said he couldn’t feel anything and the next thing I know, I felt the biggest kick of 2 weeks! I asked, “Did you feel that?!” He started laughing and said, “YES.”

At least we know she’s obedient.

Boy or Girl?

Carl and I went to the doctor’s office at 8:20 a.m. and Monday April 5, 2010 was the day we got to find out if KBB was a boy or a girl.... wouldn't you know the baby wouldn't cooperate. We took pictures for almost half an hour! Apparently this kid likes the camera and loves his/her moment to shine.... Ha ha.
But truthfully, the baby felt like a bag of popcorn all of Sunday night, you would have thought it was at a night club and grooving because I couldn't hardly get comfortable enough to get any normal amount of shut eye. By the time we got to the doctor's office, KBB was sound asleep. The sonographer nudged my tummy a bit and we kept telling him/her to wake up. When the little bugger finally woke up, it was trying to kick us away, hence the first photo being of that big 'ol foot. Unfortunately, the baby already has my feet because it's large and you can see every little bone! KBB started the sono folded completely in half and Theresa, the technician, said this was one of the most flexible babies she has ever seen. The arms hugging the back of of the knees! You can see in these pictures that this child gradually unfolds towards the end of our 20 minute photo shoot. We won the most difficult sonogram of the day and we were her first patient...
Little Miss Roslynne Marie, what a hoot she will be!

20 Rosie facts

I have licked the back of a CD to try to get it to work.

I knew just about everyone in High School but I can’t say everyone liked me.

I have wrecked 3 of the 14 cars I’ve ever owned.

I’ve been on 1 blind date in my life. It was to the bowling alley.

I have 3 best friends that I’ve known for over 10 years and communicate with them at least 3 times a week. Via text, email or Facebook.

I’m a great tipper….if the service is great. (Veteran waitress.)

The most money I’ve ever spent on a haircut and color was probably $125.00.

As soon as I walk into the house I command Boscoe to sit and pet him.

I despise scary movies. I don’t even like to see movie cases with weird demonic pictures.

Last night I had a dream that I went to my high school reunion and had a really great time.

I am named after the nurse that delivered me. She was also the owner of King’s Portraits in Winfield, KS.

I sing in the shower. I think I always have.

Christmas is my favorite holiday.

I have probably caught 6 fish in my entire life.

The only piercings I have are in my ears. 1 in each.

My belly button is an innie.

Sour Cream and Cheddar Cheese are my favorite chips.

I always put my right shoe on first.

Once I had 2 dates in one night. I married the one that stood me up.

One of the weirdest things I’ve ever done in the car is light a candle. It wasn’t a survival tactic or anything, it just smelled nice.

Top 5 Reasons for buying a Toyota Camry and getting rid of the Mercedes SLK320

Top 5 Reasons for buying a Toyota Camry and getting rid of the Mercedes SLK320

1.) A 2-seater convertible that retails over 6 digits is not financially or physically responsible for a family with a new baby on the way. (Don’t get me wrong, I still cried.)

2.) 0% APR for 6 years – 2 vehicles

3.) 2 years free maintenance on 2 vehicles.

4.) The payment on 2 brand new Toyotas for less than the price of one of our existing vehicles is a successful investment.

5.) I personally believe the recent recall on my new vehicle was important, has been rectified and currently political. Any vehicle recall must be tested and passed before sold to a consumer.

(Any vehicle is able to have a recall. People/machines are not perfect.
i.e.
BMW: Summary: ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES, THE LOWER RUBBER MOUNT OF THE REAR SHOCK ABSORBERS MAY NOT HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED TO SPECIFICATIONS AND MAY NOT ADHERE CORRECTLY TO ITS HOUSING WITHIN THE SHOCK ABSORBER.
Consequence: THE BUSHING COULD LOOSEN AND OVER TIME COULD SEPARATE FROM ITS HOUSING. THE DRIVER WILL EXPERIENCE IMPAIRED VEHICLE HANDLING AND CONTROL INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

CHEVY/GM: Summary: GENERAL MOTORS IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2006 CHEVROLET COBALT AND SATURN ION VEHICLES ORIGINALLY SOLD IN OR CURRENTLY REGISTERED IN THE STATES OF ARIZONA AND NEVADA; AND MODEL YEAR 2007 CHEVROLET COBALT, PONTIAC G5 AND SATURN ION VEHICLES ORIGINALLY SOLD IN OR CURRENTLY REGISTERED IN THE STATES OF ARIZONA, CALIFORNIA, FLORIDA, NEVADA AND TEXAS. THE PLASTIC SUPPLY OR RETURN PORT ON THE MODULAR RESERVOIR ASSEMBLY MAY CRACK. IF EITHER OF THESE PORTS DEVELOPS A CRACK, FUEL WILL LEAK FROM THE AREA. IF THE CRACK BECOMES LARGE ENOUGH, FUEL MAY BE OBSERVED DRIPPING ONTO THE GROUND AND VEHICLE PERFORMANCE MAY BE AFFECTED.
Consequence: FUEL LEAKAGE, IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE, COULD RESULT IN A FIRE.

FORD: Summary: VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSENGER VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH THE S/R OPTION. THE S/R OPTION INCLUDES, AMONG OTHER FEATURES, A 5-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION. ON THESE VEHICLES, THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT PATTERN IS NOT DISPLAYED IN THE OCCUPANT COMPARTMENT IN VIEW OF THE DRIVER. THIS DOES NOT COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FMVSS NO. 102, "TRANSMISSION SHIFT LEVER SEQUENCE, STARTER INTERLOCK, AND TRANSMISSION BRAKING EFFECT."
Consequence:THE DRIVER MAY NOT BE AWARE OF THE TRANSMISSION POSITION OF THE VEHICLE.)

I guess this would make 6 resons but it's a Japanese car made in Texas. That closed the deal on my debit on American (You know, buy American, support America. Problem is, American Brands outsource out of America. My car was built in San Anotonio. I love the sticker that says: Built for Texas, Built by Texans. No Really, I LOVE THAT.)

Nothing says love like a song dedication.

I'm not sure if anyone else has heard the song:

Lady Antebellum - Need You Now but there is a part in the lyrics that say:

"It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now"

This happens to be Carl's new dedication song to me. Too often her will say, "And i NEEEEEEED you now."

Which is kind of cute but think about the lyrics and then put a high pitch, whale-like quality sound into Neeeeeeed.

Today I received a text message from my lovely husband that states:

"It's a quarter after 3, I think I need to pee and I need you now."

Quirky but I find funny. Ha ha. Funny husband. Ha ha.

Googlehead

So I've been addicting to Google-ing and Swagbucking. I was talking to Brad at work and something or another happened and I remembered my dear friend Mike that used to say "Good on ya." I never really knew what it meant but figured it was good.

Now that Mike is busy in the world saving lives and taking names... I still find myself using his saying. So I decided to look it up, in the event, he doesn't reply to my email.

This is waht I found:

: : : What does "good on you" mean? As in "good on you, Joe, that was an excellent play".

: : It means you're being complimented ... by an Australian.

: What Bob is too shy to mention is that "good for you" is the more usual expression, outside of Oz, and means "you did well." Or it could mean "you did good." That's ungrammatical--or not, depending on what you did. SS

I was so sure that the spelling was "good onya", but my sister swears its "good on ya". We decided to settle via google fight and "good onya" scored 125,000 and "good on ya!" scored 45,500,000. Still not convinced, I argued that most of the "good on yas" lived overseas and did a google search limited to Australian sites. Score: 861 "good onya" v. 31,200 "good on ya". I stand corrected. Either way, it is definitely not "good on you". Even Australians who don't have broad, rural or working class accents would lapse to the strine "Good on ya!" when using this phrase, rather than "Good on you!" which would sound plain wrong. Very often used sarcastically: "Good on ya, Minister!" could just as easily be followed by "Yeah, we really need fewer public hospitals" as by something complimentary. Pamela

In my head...

Thoughts while driving to work today:

“I finally got into the routine of eating cereal in the morning….OH CRAP! I don’t have any milk.”
My husband told me last night, “I want you to go to this maternity clothes boutique I saw in the Galleria Mall. When we went with Dru and Kari, I thought about how I want you to buy your maternity clothes there because I want you to dress stylish. They have cute clothes there.”….Does this mean I’m not stylish pre-pregnancy??

“Hmmm. Nothing really tastes good. So what should I eat for lunch?”
I’m really thankful for my job.

“That Jack in the Box Cheeseburger was good yesterday.”

I then saw somebody in a car next to me smoking a cigarette and I was trying to read a sign about McDonald’s and I was worried they were going to think I was staring at them and shoot me with a gun. I proceeded to think about this violent video I saw on youtube about the great Burger King and McDonald’s debate where the King shoots Ronald McDonald in a passing limo. It’s pretty violent. I then came to the conclusion I prefer McDonald’s Cheeseburger to Burger King’s Cheeseburger.


I’m totally crazy huh?
