Luckiest Girl in the World

I really do have a prince charming on my hands. Yesterday it was time to mown the lawn, AKA cut those damn weeds in our yard. Along with some lovely fungi I might add. If only I could grow beautiful flowering bushes like the mushrooms that appear in our back yard. Anyway, Leo went out to fulfill his duties as landscaper and I went out to help with the trimming. When he was done with his part he came over and took the edger from me and said "I'll finish. You go get some water and rest." What a wonderful man! He won't let his pregnant wife to too much and he reminds me to stay well hydrated. Actually I call Leo the water nazi because he has to constantly remind me to keep my glass full of h2o - I'm terrible at drinkng enough.

So although he may not be perfect in every way, he is perfect where it really matters!

Last week I went to the dr's again and got a wonderul new picture to share. It's actually quite amazing . . . Cool huh?! Leo did not come with me to the appointment but I'm sure he will next time so he doesn't miss out on the cinematic adventure that is a 3-D sonogram! They can turn the picture every which way to check out every part you like. And no . . . we do not know the sex yet. It's still several weeks away until we will know.

Today we are just hanging out around the house. We've been keeping our eyes on the weather channel and the storm footage down south. It's scary and interesting at the same time. I saw that Al Roker was right there in the heart of it and I had to wonder - does he like putting his life at risk or did he just get the short end of the stick in this case? I don't get it. I wish they would put Ann Curry or that stupid Viera woman down there. They drive me nuts.

Since when am I so opinionated about anchor-people?

Anyway, enjoy your labor day wherever you are. And Happy Birthday to Grandma Lilian who is 94 today and Mombo! And another Happy to Timothy tomorrow. Love & Miss you!
