I just love these guys!

Figured It Out

So, after a TON of trial and error, I figured out the HTML code and I now have a cute little blog.  I still can't figure out the header so if anyone is a header/banner expert please let me know.  I want it to stretch all the way across but I can't figure it out!!!!

UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Blog is under construction!

Catching up - Neighbors :(

Hooding Ceremony and I'm 21 weeks in this photo.  (I'm now 32 weeks)

So, it has been way to long since I have kept up with this blog!  I'm going to try and be good.  Today was a very talkative day for me, so I figured today was a good day to start back blogging.

Lets catch up....A little at a time :)

I am officially moved to Virginia. (Three weeks tomorrow)  I'm starting to feel a little more comfortable in the town and the condo.  It's so hard to move to a new place.  We still don't really know where anything is but we are starting venture out and find our way.

As far as where we are living, we moved into a condo/apartment thing.  It seemed like a great idea but (and still probably was the best idea) horrible neighbors can make you second guess yourself.  We are on the bottom floor so we could have a backyard for Taggie, but this means we have to have upstairs neighbors.  Well, those neighbors are awful.  They are two young-ish guys that don't want to grow up.  They seem to like to stay up all night and sleep all day.  I have no idea how they make money but they somehow do.  O yeah, one of the guys is a professional golfer and the other works at a restaurant.  Anyways, two nights ago they were so horrible and LOUD that we finally reported them.  If they get another violation they are evicted.  Deep down I really hope they do it again so they can be sent on their way.  But maybe they will change.  Also, that same night they smoked who knows how many packs of cigarettes and threw them all lit (almost finished but still lit) over the balcony into our yard.  Well, we were asleep so no harm done except for the fact that at that point we have had no rain for months.  So, what if they had caught everything on fire???  Idiots!  Also, I was worried Taggie would step on one and burn his self or they would throw them on top of us.  Well, they were issued yet another warning, trash warning, and if they don't clean it up in 24 hours they are fined.  So, at least our landlord is taking care of us and actually doing something about it.  Hopefully they will be quite at night and respectful.  Not to mention...I need my little doctor to sleep considering he has people's lives in his hands!!!  Who wants their surgeon working on them with no sleep?  NO ONE!  (Accept for our upstairs neighbors...they seem to not care)

One more thing about the neighbors...The first weekend we were here, one of them was hauled off in an ambulance in the morning.  We are thinking he may have had alcohol poisoning.  Again, what an idiot!  But this made us realize these guys are trouble.  We aren't here longer then 24 hours and they are getting hauled away in an ambulance....grrrrr.  I prayed to much for us to sell our house...not any for good neighbors....Maybe it was my fault....LOL.  O the luck!

I'll keep you posted :)

More to come in future post:

Next - Pregnancy and Physical Therapy
Third - Dan and Taggie  (Hopefully I can get a picture of the two of them!)
Fourth - Baby
Fifth - Condo Pics
Sixth - LR stuff/news.  House, job, etc
I"m sure there is more...this is mainly a list for me to remember ;)

Loves and Hugs,
Jessica

I'm Back!

Kinda...

We are in the process of moving and most of my pictures are on my camera.  Once we get settled, my plan is to get back to blogging!  But here are a couple that I do have on my computer to share :)

Life has for sure changed like crazy in the past 6 months since the last blog post!

To start, we are expecting our first child :)  Here he is at 19 weeks.  I am now 23 weeks.

Here is Dan graduating from medical school....now officially a Doctor :)  I am SOOOO proud!

That's all I have for now.  More to come :)

Pottery Sale

Here are a few pictures from my (and mom's) pottery sale with the Art Center!

The Wall

Just for you Uncle Bob! The wall is a little dirty in these pictures...but you get the idea!

Pottery Update and Sale

My sale is Nov 21st!!! YEA!!! Please come if you are in Little Rock. State Fair Grounds, Hall of Industry, 9-4. As soon as I get back into town, one of my weekend task is to put pottery pictures up!

Pottery

Here is my most recent pottery! Also, there is going to be a pottery sale in November. Me and mom will have a table and be selling our pottery. If you are interested please let me know and I will let you know where :)

This is a big bowl that came out so nice.
This is another big bowl that I LOVE!

Two fun green and yellow-ish bowls. Large and medium in size.

One of my favorite trays...It is a brushed on turquoise tray.

Another nice tray...in a glaze called yellow green.

Fun mugs in brown and a gray-ish blue color.

Vase with flowers...this was a fun experiment...a little different from my normal functional pottery.

Two purple bowls...Theses are big cereal bowls.

I love pottery and I hope one day TONS of people will want to buy my stuff. I would love to do this full time....BUT there is one big problem...no one has bought anything...I just keep making and making...You should see our dinning room table...its covered. Hopefully things will change at the sale in November...Wish me luck :)

Taggie Goes Swimming

WOW!!! It has been a long time since I have posted anything. But we have TONS to post. I have been taking pictures like crazy but I have just been slacking in the posting department. I'll try and get caught up over the next few days....hopefully :)

Taggie LOVES LOVES LOVES to go swimming at the dog park. We found a "secret" swimming hole a couple weekends ago and Taggie just loves it.

First we walk through the soccer fields to get to the secret location...


We are almost there...we walk through the secret trail to get to the water

First things first...time for a BIG drink of water...YUMMY river water...so healthy :)Papa, lets use this stick...Its the best :)

I got it, I got it, I got it.....Look at the HUGE leap!!!

SPLASH!!!! Weeeeee this is soooooooo fun.We always try to get Taggie to swim...he refuses to do it unless we take him out in the water. He prefers to stay in the shallow end....I'm not sure what they are looking at....This is after we got done swimming. This pictures says.....WEEEEEE!!!! I had the BEST time ever. Thank you, thank you, thank you!On the way home...What a happy and wet pootie :)

If you can't tell, we love this little guy with all our heart. I'm not sure what we would do without him :)
