Walk to Cure Diabetes

Saturday was the Walk to Cure Diabetes. My mom, Heather, Bronwyn, Maizie, Honey Girl, and I all went to the walk together. We had a good time. I have to admit we didn't walk the whole thing. We cut through about half way. I mean did you really think that with a pregnant woman, a woman recovering from a C-section, a 3 year old, and a 3 month old mini dachshund could walk the WHOLE way? Though to everyone's surprise Honey Girl did walk the entire time. I probably held her a whole minute while walking. I have a celebrity dog!!! Honey Girl was the talk of the walk! Everyone thought she was the cutest thing ever. I was even told she was the most precious thing someone had seen. I couldn't belive it. I mean I know she's too cute but it was CRAZY how many people commented on her. By the time we finished the walk she was pretty pooped. Bronwyn did pretty good at the walk too. At the end they played music and Bronwyn danced with Aunt Ree and pretended to sing. We also saw Honey Girl's cousin at the walk. A co-worker of Hillary's adopted a puppy from the same breeders Honey Girl came from. Here are the pics of the walk. Enjoy!!

Quirk off

Ok so I've been told I need to do this quirk off for some time now. So here in no particular order are my 5 quirks.

#1. I hate feet!! Not just anyone's but my own too. Yet I don't like to wear shoes. As much as I dislike them you'd think I'd want to cover them up. Well except I do like socks. The only white socks I own are ankle socks. All my other ones are colored and have designs. If I'm gonna wear something on my feet they might as well not be drab. I guess my loathe of feet and white socks would be two different ones but I'll keep them as one since they have to do with the same part of the body. Another reason why I don't like my own feet is that I have no toenails. Well I do but all but my big toenail are pretty non existent. Whenever I get pedicures the ladies always make fun because they don't have anything to work with. Actually those are the only people I let touch my feet. And that's just because they are in hot water first. Now I don't have gross feet I just think ALL feet are gross. I don't like them anywhere near me. My friends like to tease sometimes and try to put their feet near me and I freak out. I know I'm more weird than quirky.

#2. I like to dress up my dog. I'm not as bad as some people but I'm sure I would be if I had the money. The first thing I bought her was a pink and white shirt that says Yield to the Princess because of course she is a princess. Princess Honey. I also have a pink dress that says Spoiled dog all over it. She hasn't worn that one yet because she doesn't look very good in a dress. She's more of a t-shirt dog. She does pretty well with them after a few minutes of getting used to it. I also bought her little bows for her ears. They are too cute!! See Weekend Wrapup Blog for pictures. She wore them with her Here Comes trouble shirt. Carla told me she was getting her a UT shirt that had rhinestones or sparkles on it. I'm way excited! I've been wanting to get her a UT shirt for a while. She also needs a Cowboys shirt. So if anyone knows where I can get one let me know!! She's like a little doll I have to dress her up! Just wait til the holidays!!!!

#3. I'm addicted to wedding magazines. Partly because I want to get married pretty bad but also because I am such a big planner. That will be my #4. But anyways whenever I'm at the store it takes alot for me to not reach for a bridal magazine and put it in my basket. I like to look at the flowers, bridemaids dresses, and see if there are any ideas or pictures for the wedding cakes. I've always said that I won't be having a traditional wedding cake. I just don't like white wake and I don't want it to be plain white on the outside. The wedding cake will be chocolate and the groom can have the white cake. And no I don't have a boyfriend yet so yes this is pretty weird for me to be planning my wedding already. HAHA! But hey if you have any single brothers, friends, friends of brothers send them my way!! Just need someone to stand at the alter I've got everything else covered!! HA!

#4. As mentioned above I'm a big planner. I have to have some sort of plan for everything. I'm not a spur of the moment kind of person. I mean my birthday is 2 months away and I'm already planning what I want to do. I'm like this every year. I start counting down the days starting from my friend's birthday near Labor Day. I love birthdays! But that's not the point. Planning is the point. I even over pack way too much when going on trips because I have to have a plan for everything. And no things don't always go "as planned." Last year I made plans for my birthday, changed them, then changed them again and the day before those plans changed again! So I may plan for a lot of things but they don't usually stick.

#5. This one I know I'm not the only one. When I eat I eat all of one food group at a time. Like if I'm eating a sandwich and chip/fries I will eat the chips/fries first and then the sandwich. Or if I'm at a restaurant and I have meat, veggies, and a starch I will eat all of one thing before I start the next. I'll eat the veggies first and finish those, then something else and finish that and then the last. I don't like my food touching each other either. At home I usually put my veggies on a different plate so that they don't touch my other food.

So that's my weird quirky things about me. So now its your turn!! I challenge you to name 5 quirky things about yourself.

Honey Girl

Here are some more pictures of Honey Girl. Everytime I don't have my camera outside with me I realize whatever she's doing would've made a great and funny picture. I only got a couple this time but here she is. She's such a clown sometimes. The last one hillary took which turned out to be a good picture too. She's getting so big now...I know what you are thinking! WHAT? How can you tell? But compared to 3 weeks ago she's gotten bigger. She knows her name and knows come though she doesn't always do it. But she's learning and I'm so proud of her. I swear I'm one of those people you read about. How they treat their pets like their children. Now I'm not extremely bad but I do love her! She is like my first child...and be thankful parents that she's JUST a dog and not an actual child then we'd all be in trouble! HAHAHA!

Weekend Roundup

Hillary, Phil, and I went to see Cooper on Saturday. He is so cute! We got a few pictures of him while he was sleeping. He sleeps just like Bronwyn used to sleep when she was a baby, with his arms above his head. He also has a few other positions of his own.

Sunday we went to Hillary's place to help paint her baby's room. Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of the room but of course I got some pictures of Honey Girl. I took her over there and she was so good. She sat right by the doorway and slept most of the time. I got her a little t-shirt that says Here Comes Trouble. Fits her to a T! I also got her some little bows for her ears. Too cute. Of course they didn't stay in long but she was a good sport...for the most part. Hillary got a few pictures of the room before and after. We divided the walls in two with tape. The top is a light pink, the bottom is a light brown, and where the tape was is going to be a dark brown chair railing. They haven't put the chair railing up yet though. The funny thing was is that when we took the tape off the room looked like Neopalitan ice cream. Strawberry on top, Vanilla in the middle(white from the tape), and Chocolate on the bottom. But it won't look like that after they put the chair railing up. I will have those pictures from Hillary soon.

He's Here!

Most of you have already seen these pictures but if you haven't YEA!! And if you have look at them again! :)
Well Cooper is FINALLY here! We are so excited and he looks perfect! Most of the pictures are from the lobby while we waited all day. I arrived at the hospital at 9 but Heather and Josh had been there since 5:30. Cooper Stephen William Medlock was born September 29, 2008 at 7:28 PM. He is 7 pounds and 6 oz. He couldn't be anymore perfect. This picture is Bronwyn watching a movie while waiting in the lobby. This was pretty early in the day.
