I have a bundle of joy!

About Me

That's right... no more "sauce" for me, because I'm PREGGO! Chris and I are having a baby! The baby website we visited has us due May 7th! I know the doctor will give us a more accurate date. But YAY!!! We're so excited! This is a 'new game' now... everything is going to change. I plan to keep everyone updated with my blogs on how our little one is developing. What a RUSH!!!!

My Interests

Chris, Babies, trips, Hiking, Cooking, Piano Bars, Going to the Beach, Euchre, Fireworks, Party Planning, Geocaching.com (check us out- we are "Show Us Your Cache"), Mexican Food, Ice Cream- esp. mint choc chip. Also, I am enjoying connecting with old friends on MySpace and know it will help me keep in touch with my current friends... distance can't keep us apart!

Other mommies in the area to have play dates with ha ha...

Music:

Everything, but especially James Taylor, Billy Joel, Elton John, Carribbean/Instrumental music, Etta James, the Bee Gees, Hootie (C'mon, admit it... they're not so bad), Tracy Chapman, Indigo Girls, Dixie Chicks, Sting, Sarah McLaughlin, and Bob Marley. Lately I've been jamming to the "Heer Hall Greatest Hits" cds my girls made for us! It's like a flood of memories everytime I hear one of the songs...

Movies:

Napolean Dynamite, Goonies, Meet the Fockers/Meet the Parents, Grumpy Old Men, Old School. I guess I like the funnies...

Big Brother All Stars (what a joke, right?), Medium, Grey's Anatomy, Lost, Desperate Housewives, My Name is Earl, The Office, How I Met Your Mother, SNL (Live and Repeats), Cooking shows, Dirty Jobs, and the Travel channel.

Books:

Hopefully Carly's book "The Steam Sequence" (found on Amazon.com) will come soon! and probably some baby books!

Heroes:

God, Chris, My family, Mother Theresa, Katie Couric, in no special order...
