Is she looking at me?

It appears that Nugs is looking at the camera-- however, she is not.
She is staring at the TV

Fall Crafts

So I spent some time this week making an adorable fall decoration for my house... and I absolutely LOVE it!


This was inspired by my friend April and her CIA group! :)

49ers Game


A big thank you to Rich's Mom for sending off her boys to the 49ers- Cardinals game. Rich had a wonderful time even though the 49ers lost.

Now, they just need to remember on Christmas day that this was their early Christmas present! Thanks again!

Announcing...

Nugget #2 I know, I know... how can I tell at 15 weeks what the sex of the baby is? Well, put together at $200,000 ultrasound machine with the best ultrasonographer OB/GYN in the state of Arizona and ta-dah! Piece of cake. Now, I will still have another ultrasound at 20 weeks but this awesome machine could identify a 4 chambered heart, all fingers and toes, a 3 vessel umbillical cord with good insertion, all parts of the brain, good amniotic fluid, and all measurements within normal limits.
Oh yes- my slightly enlarged uterus only contains one nugget #2

Daycare for my Nugs

Ryann Finished off all of Daddy's Fritos and she LOVED them. I may have hopefully found a job! Well, I found a group of 2 physicians and a PA who are looking to hire a Nurse Midwife... which leads me to my next dilema... childcare!
Anyone know anyone in the Chandler, Ahwatukee, Tempe area who does at home daycare?
.
Or does anyone have recommendations for daycares in the area? Or a nanny? I need help!
.
Anyone have suggestions on what I should do? At this point in our lives, Rich and I both have to work full time in order to "catch up" from all these months I haven't been working... hopefully by the time the baby comes we will be able to work out a much nicer schdule- but until then... I need your eyes and ears to look for childcare for my almost 2 year old who is not potty trained but is super easy!!

3 Facts About Me
1. I do not know how many times I have read the Twilight Series. Lets just say that I can read about one a day since I have been out of clinicals... (last day of clinic was september 15th) and I read a lot before that. You can basically read me a sentance and I will tell you what book it is out of, probably could find the page within seconds, and I could tell you all the lines before and after... do you think there is some kind of contest out there where you could make money on this??

2. My uterus has been consistently measuring 2 weeks more than my gestational age. I am sure on my LMP- and I believe I know too much for my own good. Almost every day I palpate my uterus and I wonder if I have a big kid in there, extra amniotic fluid, an extra baby... and then I realize that my abdominal muscles are thankfully still intact and I am sure they are holding my gravid uterus higher than expected... dang schooling... will it ever just let me be blissfully ignorant about anything?

3. I love to blog and blog stalk!

3 Things I haven't done yet
1. Gone Scuba Diving- I don't imagine this will happen anytime soon
