We are Almost Cruisin!!

OMG - we are sooooo excited! All the plans are made and we are ready to pack and set sail on the Carnival Victory!! Heather and Alan will be arriving on Friday and we will leave for Miami around 5 a.m. on Sunday! WOOOHOOO!!! It is going to be so much fun and full of so many memories! I am thinking of taking my laptop on the ship and updating my blog right from the ship!!

Everyone is doing great! Krista is doing good - she's eating good and feeling fairly good and already has a baby bump goin on - and you know what - she got a bikini for the cruise and still looks cute as heck in it! Here's the Little PeaPod picture from her last doctor visit:

Isn't that just a miracle? Isn't technology amazing??!!! Krista goes to the doctor again this Thursday - sure would be cool if they did another ultrasound and we found out if it's a Pink PeaPod or a Blue PeaPod!!!! Either way - this little PeaPod is a blessing straight from Heaven!

Heather and Alan are doing good! Heather is so funny - she still has a pink in her hair and I told her she had to walk 10 feet in front or behind me on the cruise! lol! Alan has been working out and lookin good!! I know today they are getting ready to plant a garden!! I am so proud of the 2 of them - they really make it work!! Heather's friend Tina was just here visiting - it is so funny that we found out that Tina's Mom and Dad live here in Venice - and her brother lives right here in our apartment complex - what a small world! It was so good to see Tina!

For me - work has been busy, busy - thank God - Job security! I really like the company I am working for - Focus Infomatics and love the work I am doing. As long as I have been in this industry, I love to provide feedback to transcriptionists to help them and I get to do that with this job! I've been so busy lately that I haven't been stamping - geesh.

Dave keeps busy too - and his favorite thing to do when he isn't working is talking on the phone with Charlee! And she just loves talking to Pap! She has been spending every other Saturday with us and we really enjoy that time! It is so amazing how she is growing up and talking more! Brings back all the great memories of Heather and Justin growing up and the silly things they would do!

Isn't she just toooo cute???!!!!

Gotta get back to watching Idol!! I'm rootin for David Cook - how about you?!!!

Update on the PeaPod!!

I was so blessed to be able to go to Krista's OB visit today with her and Justin! It was so amazing - the doc did an ultrasound and the little PeaPod MOVED!! Check out the video below:



Is this a miracle or what???? Our little PeaPod is now 12 weeks, 3 days old and with a strong heartbeat of 156!! Now - does the quick heartbeat mean a boy or girl??? Momma and Little PeaPod are doing great! Krista is feeling good, eating good and looking at her face yesterday seeing the baby move - she was glowing!!

Charlee was so excited!!! She like totally understands there is a baby! Did you hear her say she sees the baby - then she says "OOO I love that baby!" is that priceless or what? This Little PeaPod comes into this world with a wonderful Momma, Daddy, and Sister and all the Blessings God has to give!!

Words can't express the joy I am feeling after seeing this little miracle - our Little PeaPod!! I feel we are so blessed in so many ways! What is most amazing is watching Justin and the man he has become - the Daddy he has become. After the doctor's appt we went to McDonalds and watching him play on the little playground with Charlee had me in tears -so full of pride - made me feel we (Dave and I) did something right! I told Heather I don't know what I'm going to do when her & Alan get pregnant - I'll have to move up to PA for a whole year because I won't want to miss any of this with her!! Hopefully gas prices will go down! haha!

Just had to share the update!
