Our first and last Yard sale. We decided to schlep everything outside in order to sell some items we no longer need. We found out rather quickly that people around here want to either get things for free or give you $1 for everything you're selling. After about 5 hours we decided that we'd rather donate the stuff than sell it to people for next to nothing so we packed up the truck for a trip to Goodwill......hey, at least our garage has a little more space in it now.

Belly at almost 22 weeks....and getting bigger I think it's going to be a 9lbs baby.....Otherwise I am sooooo bored. This is the first time in 17+ years that I am not working and I'm going insane. There's only so much cleaning I can do. Thankfully I haven't had to ask D. for an allowance, yet.......There are no jobs here, and I doubt that anyone would hire me at this point even if I got lucky enough to get an interview.

So I'm spending my days watching the wildlife in the backyard. No wonder the food in the bird feeder keeps disappearing rather quickly.

Poor Mittens with her shaved paw. She was on IV's all week and is finally feeling better. Unfortunately they're not sure what was wrong with her even after the insane amount of tests they put her through.
On to finding more stuff for our first ever yard sale on Saturday.....

On a happier note, here are some pics from the last Ultrasound. It's a.......well, you'll just have to wait until January to find out since we decided we did not want to know. Therefore the Ultrasound was strictly rated PG.
How cute are those feet....and let me tell you I can certainly tell when those feet and legs are in action.

Horrible News:
As most of you may know by now, a HH65 crashed last night killing at least 3 in Hawaii and I am sure that most of you know someone who is currently stationed there. I don't even have words to explain how I feel right now. It's quite a reality shock when you realize that it could just happen to anyone of us. Please send a prayer for all of the families affected and tell your spouses how much you love them. One of the news articles is below:


A Coast Guard HH-65 Dolphin helicopter crashed last night during a training exercise six miles off Sand Island, killing three of four crewmembers aboard.
Search efforts were continuing for the fourth crewmember.
"This is a very difficult case because rescuers are being rescued," said Rear Adm. Manson Brown, 14th Coast Guard District commander.
Honolulu Fire Department spokesman Capt. Terry Seelig said three of four people aboard the helicopter, which crashed about 8:15 p.m., were accounted for. The three reportedly were taken to The Queen's Medical Center, where they reportedly died.
Brown said witnesses aboard a passing Air Force transport aircraft and small Coast Guard boat saw the helicopter based at Barbers Point go down. The helicopter and small boat were doing "routine training," Brown said.
Coast Guard officials said the last crash of one of its rescue helicopters occurred in 1982 on Moloka'i.
The helicopter's four-member crew was conducting search-and- rescue drills with a 47-foot motor lifeboat from Station Honolulu when it went down, a news release said.
The Coast Guard was notified of the crash by the Federal Aviation Administration and launched a C-130 search plane from Air Station Barbers Point.
A crew on board an inbound Air Force C-17 to Honolulu International Airport saw the Coast Guard helicopter go down and circled the site until a rescue boat from the Honolulu Fire Department could get on scene.
The rescue involved the 47-foot motor lifeboat, the C-17, the C-130 and helicopters from the Honolulu Fire and Police Departments.
