BABY MANIA

Last night Lauren and I went to visit Rebecca and Michael to see Anderson's nursery. Rebecca is due May 31st and she is the cutest pregnant woman I've ever seen! The only place that she has gained weight is her belly. She looks like she is smuggling a watermelon! I think the first thing Anderson is gonna do when she gets here is STRETCH! I know she has got to be running out of room in there! Anyways...Michael and Rebecca have gotten SO much more comfortable with babies...its amazing how God gets us ready for parenthood. Michael was not aware of the fact that you have to support a baby's head when you pick him up! We got a GOOD laugh out of that. Rebecca (for those of you that know her) came over and informed Michael that he was not "doing it right." Then she took John Parker and cradled him and said, "Well, maybe I'm not doing so well either." Ha ha ha they are SOOO funny! Michael was giggling holding him (it's REALLY funny to see a big ole boy like Michael laughing like that over a baby!) The other funny thing that happened was that John Parker tried to root around for Michael's nipple and Michael looked down and said something about his nipples being too hairy...Rebecca scolded him and we all laughed!

We are all looking forward to Anderson Grace's arrival. I know she is gonna be beautiful! Children are such a blessing and I am so excited that Rebecca and Michael get to join the parent club.

Also...I found out Tuesday that my good friend, Abby, is going to have a baby in November! I am so excited for her! So many people are being blessed with babies these days...John Parker is going to have SO many friends to play with. That is a blessing in itself...when he hits those terrible twos I'll have some people to relate with!

SCHOOL'S OUT!

Well...I finished up with my preceptorship today(which was the last thing I had to complete for school!) This means that after three years (I took the long route...) I am finally finished with school (for a little while at least!) I am so happy and I must say I'm kinda proud of myself! Had to repeat 4th semester and then I came back pregnant and had John Parker AND I am still going through all of this divorce mess with Bill...but I didn't let it get me!! I just have to decided where I wanna work...St. D or Madison Hospital and then pass boards and I'll be done! We got to celebrate tonight by watching a new Grey's Anatomy tonite that was pretty good...if you like Grey's you should tune into the show that comes on afterwards, October Road. The season finale is on next week but you can download the previous episodes on ABC.com I think. Lauren and I discovered it and we are HUGE fans now. Oh yeah...in case anyone is wondering...John Parker is doing GREAT! He is over 10 pounds now and he's getting bigger every day! We are a little behind with his weekly pics...sorry..had alot on my plate (as my grandfather would say, "my wagon is loaded!" We'll have some updated pics up soon!

Random Thoughts...

Right now Lauren, John Parker, and I are watching the very first episode of The Wonder Years (it apparently comes on a channel called Ion at nine every night, I believe.) I forgot how much I loved this show! Kevin Arnold was the cutest kid!! I made a discovery tonight...I LOVE nerds gumballs! Lauren introduced them to me tonight and they are the most delicious things I've ever tried! I'm sure they are VERY GOOD for you...I think you can find them in the Willy Wonka candy bag mix. Oh yeah...I've got some pics coming of John Parker's mullet! He looks like those old men that are balding on top and trying to compensate around the back of their heads...you know the kind I'm talking about!! I will have some pics to follow...We threw a baby shower for my cousin, Rebecca, this past Saturday. Baby Anderson got some of the cutest clothes and accessories! Little girl things are so cute! Baby Anderson is gonna be fixed up for sure! Gotta go wake up John Parker...or else we won't get any sleep tonite...
