Disney World

I am very excited!! I am planning on taking my son to Disney World on Sunday. It's his birthday and Disney gave free tickets for everyone on their birthdays. I went in March with my sister for my birthday. I love that place. I would live there if I could.

My son does not know we are going. Last I told him, we might go if I could afford it. But I haven't mentioned it much so I am sure he thinks we aren't going. Yay! A surprise!!

I can't wait I can't wait I can't wait!!

Watch out Magic Kingdom! Here I come!

Yea, yea, yea

I know. It has been almost 2 months since my last post. I am such a bad blogger. It isn't like anyone reads my blog anyway. And if they do, they sure as heck don't comment about it. Anyway, I have ideas and thoughts that sometimes I want to blog/talk about but it isn't always something I want people that I know to know. You know? I am thinking about starting an annonymous blog so I can say things without worrying about who reads it. Some things I like to keep private but at the same time would like to discuss it with others. Does that make sense at all? I dunno...Maybe I should just put it all out there and not worry about it. Sigh. So, I am in the same place I was to begin with. What shall I do?

Get ready to say awwww...

My nephew Romeo.

That is all.

The Beach

My son is so talented...with some random

dead

sleeping person on the beach and a little sand, he created a merman holding a trident. I have been told I could be biased, but I think my son is pretty awesome. Maybe even Macgyver-ish. The random sleeping person/merman thought so too. Not to mention the little wiener dog who wanted to tinkle on the random sleeping person's/merman's head.

Welcome to the world Romeo!

A few days ago, I was blessed to be able to welcome my new nephew into the world. He was born 8/4/09, weighed 8lbs 2oz and was 20in long. If babies aren't the most precious things in the world, I don't know what are. I am graciously posting a picture so you, too, can marvel in his beauty. If the skies open up and you hear angels singing, don't be alarmed. For they are also dazzled by his new baby goodness.

Introducing...Romeo Rashaun Carter

Today was a good day

I did some things I have not done before. I went hiking. I guess it is considered hiking. I walked through some trails in the woods attempting to see some wildlife. We saw some turtles and lots of spiders, but missed out on the elusive alligators. I think they were avoiding me. I also shopped around an antique store quite a while. We inadvertently made them stay open an hour past their closing time. Oops. Sorry antique store people. But it was fun and I saw lots of neat things. I was able to share my knowledge (or lack of) Hummel ,milk glass, and Johnson Bros. china. Woot! Did I mention that I had awesome company? Yep, I did. Thanks for the great day!

My new nephew

My older sister, in all her wisdom went out and got herself pregnant. Apparently she forgot what caused pregnancy. Needless to say, it was unplanned. She will be 37 years old this year and she has 2 other kids at home. (my niece is 16 and my nephew is 12.) Her children are practically grown so she is basically starting all over again. Anyway...my nephew is due to join us any day now. If he isn't here by August 4th, she we be induced. I cannot wait to see his little face, even if he does look like his dad. (ha ha. love you rico.) I get to be the official photographer during the delivery. I will get to take his first pictures. I plan to post some here. I even chose his name...Romeo. His father wanted to name him Romello, to which I would forever call him Caramello. Thankfully he came to his senses and agreed to my suggestion. Maybe I will call him Caramello anyway, just for fun.

Romeo! Hurry up and get here already! I want to hold you. Then return you when you begin to cry or need a diaper change.
