I Think I'm Carrying In My Butt...

This week, I learned something that I am shocked I didn’t learn at a younger age. I always thought that every pregnancy was the same and that every woman carried the same way. As I put on my shorts yesterday, the same shorts that fit perfect two weeks ago, I learned that all pregnancies are NOT the same.  Some women carry high, some women carry low and some carry the baby…

What's Wrong With Mustard, On Your Pizza...

Two months, that is about how long I have until we find out if angel baby will wear dresses or suits, and I can’t wait. I haven’t bought anything for Penelopoppy and I’m getting so anxious. Will I be buying pink or blue?  Ribbons or caps?  Action figures or dollies?  One thing is for sure…

12 Weeks: Baby's First Prank...

I am finally in my last week of my first trimester. I have to say it has gone really well so far. I am looking forward to the next trimester, so many exciting things. We get to find out the sex of the baby; I’ll start to feel the baby move; and I’ll finally get a baby bump. Although my family seems to think I’ve got that covered…

Baby's First Radio Station T-Shirt...

There are sooo many things for us to figure out before October 27th (ish).  Some of the biggies are:  what will we name our new one, where to put the nursery, can we find a nanny?  It's easy to get overwhelmed with all the necessities.  But then, I just look at that little "teddy bear" picture and it all seems OK.  The good news is, Penelopoppy already has the beginnings of a wardrobe...

Underpants: They Have SO Many Uses...

I have learned very quickly that hormones absolutely take you on an emotional roller coaster ride, without a safety harness!  It all started this morning when I had a wardrobe malfunction. Well, I don’t know if it was an actual “malfunction”.  It was more like a sudden, unwelcomed, unexpected wardrobe “issue”. Every woman has those days where you have nothing to wear. This was one of those days…

I Couldn't Wait To Tell Mimi...

It has been a VERY busy, and exciting, Easter weekend.  There is a group of people that I wanted to make sure I told before they heard about it on the radio.  So, I have officially told everyone who needs to be told before the show tomorrow. Today started with a call to my grandparents…

My Mom Said, "I'm Not Pregnant"...

Boy, this day has been long, but it has been absolutely awesome.  After we finished breakfast we drove to Albuquerque to have lunch with my mom and sister. Little did they know, we were about to spring our big news on them as well.  They thought we were just getting together for a bourbon butter burger at the Standard Diner!  In reality, we were there for something much more special…

And She Said, "Oh My Gawwwwd"...

Today was a busy and exciting day. Today was the day we finally told our parents about little Penelopoppy. Well half of our parents, anyhow. Duffy had called his dad in Utah and told him on Wednesday. I can’t really repeat that conversation, hahaha. Mike, Duffy’s Dad, was very excited for us. I really wish we could have told him in person.  We WERE able to tell my in-laws and my mom in person…

10 Weeks: Look At The Little Teddy Bear...

Today was an AMAZING day. We finally got to see our little angel baby. Penelpoppy is great and already a very active little one. Our ultrasound appointment was at Women’s Medical Center in Clovis.  Everyone there has been really nice. Paula was our ultrasound expert and it didn’t take her long to realize that I had followed the instructions given to me VERY well…
