Baby Shower time!

My amazing friend McKenna threw me a work baby shower last week. She planned it and did everything by herself, the invitations, games, even the food! We had it in the Sports Academy preschool, hence the tiny table!



Yay for my Boppy pillow!
I look like a blimp!

This onsie has the Sports Academy logo on it!

Missy made cute "rattle" cupcakes!


This is McKenna holding her pretend pregnant belly. Thanks so much McKenna! It was so much fun and I got some really great gifts!

Puppysitting!


About a week and a half ago, Kory and I dogsat little Brutus. He has definitely gotten bigger but he is still the cutest little puppy ever! Look at that face! We had him from a tuesday clear until the next monday, so everyday when I went to work, I had to put him in his kennel and it broke my heart! He was so much fun, he loves to play and he has so much energy. He went to the bathroom several times in the house, potty training a dog requires constant attention! On monday, Kory's little brother Tanner came to get him and I had to stay in the bedroom because I was crying! I was so sad to let him go and even now that it's been a week I still miss that little bug!

My first tag

I got tagged my McKenna, quite a while ago actually (she tagged me before Stacie), but I've been having a hard time coming up with stuff. The rules are:to list 6 quirks about yourself and then tag six people. Leave them a message on their blog letting them know they have been tagged. I am going to have to include Kory in this b/c I can't think of 6 things for myself only.

1- I looooovvvve Disneyland! It is my most favorite place ever. Kory and I have gone every year since we got married. I would rather go there than anywhere else. This is the first year we haven't gone because of two reasons 1) I wouldn't be able to ride most of the rides 2) there aren't enough bathrooms in the place. Hopefully we will get to go next year, but that might not be possible with a baby.

2- I love animals! And I am very sensitive towards them. Kory and I sometimes watch Animal Police or other animal shows and I cry. I once rescued a dying mouse from the Ruby Tuesday parking lot. I'm pretty sure he ended up dying anyway. I mostlylove dogs and one of my favorite shows is Dog Whisperer on National Geographic. I have dogsat more dogs than anyone I know (besides a professionsal dogsitter). Here are pictures of just a few:

MAX the Chihuahua








TWERP the Pug









GRAYSON the Pit Bull








3- I am very particular about the household cleaning. I have to clean the house every week, otherwise I get really frustrated. I also have to do it in the same order every time. There have been a few times when Kory has tried to help me or surprise me by cleaning a room. Although I've appreciated the effort, I always have to go over and do it again. He has learned to just let me do it.

4- This one is Kory's- he loves sports.... a LOT!!! Whenever he is not working, I feel like there is a game on. Football, baseball, college, pro, you name it... Sometimes I can hardly handle it. I am sort of glad that the Red Sox are out so now I don't have to watch every game of the rest of the World Series! One thing you might notice is that in almost every picture I have of him, he is wearing a team shirt. He has enough team shirts to open his own store. These are his favorite teams:


5- Another one about Kory- he still watches WWE (yes, World Wrestling Entertainment). Whenever one of his games is on a commercial, he will usually flip the channel to WWE, it is so funny. He always says he watches it because he used to watch it all the time when he was younger. I guess maybe he'll never outgrow it...

6- Finally, Kory loves history. He cracks me up about it. During the summer when it was warmer we used to go on walks every night over to Center Street and walk down it. It is so funny because every singe time, he would comment on certain houses and their history, stuff that he has learned about them over time. There are houses and businesses all over town that he knows random history about and he will always make a comment about them. Sometimes we would walk up on campus and he would want to wander the cemetary and look at the old headstones. He really loves all history, he watches the history channel sometimes, he loves movies having to do with American history, he loves to look through books about history.

Belly Pictures...(and I got tagged!)


There are a cerain few of you who have been wanting me to post these. I'm sorry if it grosses the rest of you out! I made them as small as possible! The one on the left was taken shortly after 5 months. The one on the right was taken this morning (6 1/2 months). I should have started taking belly pictures at one month because someday I'll want to look back at them, but of course it takes me forever to get things together!


Also... I got tagged by Stacie! It is a pretty easy one: All you do is go to your 6th picture album folder, pick the 6th picture and post it. After that, tag 5 friends.. Easy as that! It just so happens that I am pretty new at this blogging thing and I only have one picture folder, but I will do it anyway. I picked the 6th picture in my one file. It's not even a real life picture, but I still think it's pretty cute. I love Classic Pooh pictures and I have a bunch of them saved in my file. I am probably going to do something creative with them to put in my baby's room.

I have to think for a few days who I am going to tag, it's going to be hard since my blog is new and I hardly have any friends!

Baby Brutus!

Kory's little brother Tanner got a brand new boxer puppy named Brutus. He brought him over a few weeks ago and he is the cutest puppy ever!! He is a lot smaller than he looks in these pictures! He is only 6 or 7 weeks old and weighs only a few pounds. He kept crawling onto the shelf underneath our coffee table and falling asleep. I think he knew we couldn't bother him under there.
