Yes, I'm still here and around. I know, I know...it's been since August that I last posted anything. Shame on me. I've been busy reading everyone else's blogs and keeping current with all of them, that I haven't taken the time for myself. So I've decided that now is as good a time as any to get back in the swing of things and continue my rambling and rants. So watch out, because I'm sure they'll be good from here on out.
So, what's new? you ask...I guess the biggest news is that Mr. Jeep and I are expecting a baby in September. September 14th to be exact (and let's hope it's exact). I'm 15 weeks along, so I have a long way to go. We're very excited in the Two Seconds household, to say the least. There will be lots of changes and hopefully all of them good. First of all, the baby, that's a big change. Second of all, LC will be changing bedrooms and along with that comes all new furniture for her and a total room makeover. At first she wasn't thrilled with the idea that she'd be getting a new bedroom, until we told her that she'd get new furniture and she'd get to help pick out the paint color. Then she was VERY excited. We're even on the ball with already having bought the furniture. I found a great bedroom set on craigslist for a very reasonable price.
Of course, I will be the most pregnant in the hottest month of the year...August, but oh well. What can you do, right? I told Mr. Jeep I better not hear one complaint about the electric bill this summer. I'm sure I'll have the air-conditioning on everyday that it even thinks about going over 78 degrees. Between being parked over an air vent in the house or camped out in LC's pool in the backyard, I don't think I'll get a lot accomplished this summer.
That's really the big news. I'm sure I'll be posting a lot of my complaints and frustrations over the next few months. It seems that I get very easily irritated with everything and everyone, so I'll try to find the humor.
We went to the Florida Keys at the end of February. We went with a group of friends and it was very nice. I'm still trying to think of a way to quit my job, Mr. Jeep to quit his job and move down there permanently. Although, I don't think I'd enjoy the hurricanes very much. We rented a really nice house on a canal in Marathon and it was only a five minute walk to the beach. Here's a picture of the tree we camped under at the beach:
We also went to the Dolphin Research Center, which was very cool. LC and Mr. Jeep got to pet the dolphins and shake "hands" with them. LC is still talking about it. Here's a picture:
I opted to be the photographer and not participate. Plus, it was really expensive. It was more for her anyway. If you ever get the chance to go down there, I highly recommend it. We went to Key West one day and stayed for the evening entertainment. In Mallory Square the street performers come out and put on little shows. It was a lot of fun. We also wanted to catch the sunset from there, which we kind of did. I say kind of because there was a big cruise ship docked and it decided to take off two minutes before the sun actually set. Needless-to-say, there were quite a few boos and curse words from the crowd for that cruise ship. Here's the picture we were able to get:
Yes, that's a pirate ship in the picture! Arghh!
