77. She's Come Undone by Wally Lamb

Best Book I read this Month: She's Come Undone. I think Wally Lamb may be my new favourite author. His books are BEYOND amazing. I loved everything about this book- it's beautiful- there is simply no other word to describe it.

Happy Halloween!!

You know I made J. carve a pumpkin with me :)
Lucky for him, he got off easy this year with a simple design!!

19 Weeks!

Yup, it's true. I'm Pregnant.
Almost half way there!!
Since I have been pretty self-conscious with my body these days (let me tell you, pregnancy does some NASTY things- and I am sure I don't know the HALF of it yet!) , I haven't posted any pics- but I finally think I look pregnant and not just chubby.


AS OF TODAY:

145 days left until my Due Date: March 24th
6 days left until my Ultrasound (fingers crossed we can find out the gender)
8 lbs. up from my pre-pregnancy weight. ( still not sure what I weighed or what I weigh- I won't let the Dr. tell me- what's the point now- not like it's going to make a diff. at this point!)
160 bpm- baby's heart rate this morning.

Frittata... It's a quiche without crust!

Or at least that's how I described it to J.

I put a bunch of eggs, some milk, mushrooms, olives, spinach, broccoli, peppers and cheese in a bowl, scrambbled it all together and put it all in a greased frying ban and baked until it was firm.

Served with roasted potatoes and ceasar salad.

We Got Hitched!!!

Yesterday, we enjoyed a wedding cupcake that had been frozen!!!
To be honest, it wasn't that good... but it was SO awesome to relive that moment together :)

Betsy's Birthday!

My Little Danger Doggy is 1!!!
