Then about a year ago, my whole world was flipped upside down! Honestly, looking back at this year, I can't even understand how I made it to this point. But a year later, I know that I want to continue my journey. I have started taking the steps to get back on track and hopefully I can stay that way. There are so many amazing things - good and bad - that has happened this year that it would be impossible to write about them all right now. So, I hope that this week to post one of the major events each day just to catch everyone up on what's been going on. So, I have no idea if anyone still reads my blog since I haven't written anything in over a year but perhaps I will be able to slowly build back up a following... So, the journey begins... again.<input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input onclick="if(typeof(jsCall)=='function'){jsCall();}else{setTimeout('jsCall()',500);}" id="jsProxy" type="hidden"><div id="refHTML"></div>3T Heppenstallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01943880324828353037noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8472393951264072215.post-22305695301609980472010-04-21T07:17:00.000-07:002010-04-21T12:29:00.509-07:00My Son Is A Blessing<span style="font-family:arial;">So, I have been spending a lot of time sharing about my new baby girl.

She is quite the beautiful blessing to me but I certainly can't dismiss my son, who is also a blessing.

And, hopefully, soon we will be celebrating some good news in regards to him as well. We are ONLY steps away from finalizing the adoption with him. The only thing that we are waiting for is the birth records from the hospital where Tyler was born. But since he is already ten years old, the hospital has to go offsite where ever they are stored and get the records. And, in addition, the hospital is in Arizona. So, I'm sure that we are not at the top of their priority list. But I sure do wish they would hurry up because they are the last step before we can make everything official. So, hopefully, within the next month everything will be OFFICIAL!! And then we are going to have a PARTY!! Woo hoo!!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">So, I hope everyone's week is going well. And I did want to make a shout to my beautiful friend </span><a style="font-family: arial;" href="http://www.bobbimccormick.com/"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Bobbi</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;"> because yesterday was her birthday! She is a beautiful person inside and out! I know that she is a blessing in some way to pretty much everyone she meets. :-) I was going to post a picture of Bobbi and I but for some reason the "Upload Photo" button is not working right now. Perhaps I will be able to add it later. But for now I want to post this or I probably never will. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;font-size:180%;" >HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOBBI!!</span><br /></div></div><span

She weighed in at <span style="font-weight: bold;">9 pounds and 10 ounces</span>!! That's right, she's heavy! :-) And she reaches <span style="font-weight: bold;">20 1/2 inches long</span>. That sounds big but amazingly everyone has been telling me that she doesn't look like a 9 pound baby. I guess that's a good thing cause I never saw a 9 pound newborn before so I wouldn't really know. :-) Baby <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Tariana</span> is doing well now but we had some worries to begin with. We didn't tell anyone, but about 3 weeks before she was born, we found that she only has one kidney. So, we had to really keep a close eye on her to make sure that she was peeing enough so that we would know that the other kidney is working fine. Apparently many people out there only have one kidney and we were told not to worry. And she has been just fine, kidney is working great!! <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Yay</span>!! :-) The other small scare was that <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Tariana</span> was <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">brea</span></span><span style="font-family:arial;">thing k</span><span style="font-family:arial;">ind of rapidly and on the day that we were supposed to be discharged, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">Tariana</span> was admitted to the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">NICU</span> to run some tests and do observations. She was there for that night and two more days.... ugh. That was SO not fun!!! But we were able to bring her home and she doing just great!! For those of you that were aware of these situations, I thank you all for your prayers and support!! </span> <span style="font-family:arial;">So, since we have been home, it has been pretty tiring. I have </span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" >NO</span><span style="font-family:arial;"> baby experience so it has been quite an adjustment. I absolutely LOVE my baby girl and I am very thankful that she has been a pretty easy baby so far. Her fussiness that she has had so far has been frustrating for me but I know that it is very minor compared to some others I have heard about. So, thank you <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">Tariana</span> for taking it easy on Mommy!!! But since <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">Tariana</span> has been born, we have been showered with the blessings of loved ones. Thank you to everyone has come to see us!!</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"><br />So, right now I have written that much and I'm already tired. So, right now I will leave you all with some pictures of <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10">Tariana</span> from her first week home :-). My, how she has changed since Day 1!! Also, I would love some input on some good, quick 'n' easy recipes for a family of three to make things a little easier.</span><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeZdNzmHtdFEEkG82fhia7lEYUZ09eU4S9o3MC5sm26EN9_2F4CrWt-scYcFsz5hLnd9i44H69q4oZaQ_k1X5Nb69h05QEHppmr4iA31EVIk7WgOyufsi2aVGTTLIBN3HclT01gqsKMOs/s1600/P1110779.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer;

Where to start, where to start!!.... Well, let me jump back to Monday....<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">MONDAY, MONDAY... </span><br />Since my son had Monday off from school, I decided that we would go meet up with my wonderful friend, Heather, so that her and I could talk and the kiddos could have a bit of play date. Her kids are a lot younger than Tyler so sometimes that's a bit hard for because he wants to do things that they can't. But the way I see it, that will give him good practice for being a great Big Brother!! :-) Heather was so wonderful as to make us some PB & J sandwiches with some sliced apples and baby carrots on the side. And then, of course she spoiled us with brownies sprinkled with Reese's bites on top. They were so good! Unfortunately, I didn't bring my camera and have no pics. Such a disgrace to the blog world!! In addition to this wonderful-<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">ness</span>, Heather has also been blessing us with lots of baby stuff that they are no longer using. And the beauty of this stuff is that it is well taken care of. It's almost like getting brand new stuff. Here's some of the stuff she's already given us. She says there could be more but she doesn't want to overwhelm me.<br /><br />Thank you Heather!!!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">AWESOME LUNCH</span><br />On Wednesday, my friend, Jessica, invited myself and two other friends to her place for a home-cooked lunch. It was so absolutely delicious! I was about 15 minutes late (which I had already expressed that I would be) so when I got there everyone else was doing their part to help cook. Jessica is so funny because she under estimated how long everything would take to cook so we all ended up helping her which was fine by me because that just meant more <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">fellowship time</span>. YES!! The only thing I don't like about it is that I always feel lost in someone <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">else's</span> kitchen. But other than that, good times!!! Here's some pics of the chefs. They did WAY more work than me since I was late. Somehow, I <span style="font-weight: bold;">FA</span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">ILED</span></span> miserably to get a picture of the host. I am such a bad blogger!!I partly blame it on my hubby's camera cause he changed all the settings and I had to get it back to normal for me, which took a little bit of time. :-( So, only pics of Veronica and Grace.<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXVsLYdgnQLH-pd8b8Qxmb-NKD2nSxal0wH413rIPH_8kaHw8A33u6m_7x1VF25Krq46v25PKCGP4xsLGrFk0lFx5pM5gxsdCeot441e-lAECnivENZOc45Fy_GBGJ4gZq6xTNHqzS7Zs/s1600-h/P1110446.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXVsLYdgnQLH-pd8b8Qxmb-NKD2nSxal0wH413rIPH_8kaHw8A33u6m_7x1VF25Krq46v25PKCGP4xsLGrFk0lFx5pM5gxsdCeot441e-lAECnivENZOc45Fy_GBGJ4gZq6xTNHqzS7Zs/s200/P1110446.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440385652136751938" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgi77unfHJwAB_9L9-av2LTlqiBZNDgA3TskKTcW6Dkc63rpzNWGREY-OSevUpuMdsipF-0D2oJyqD8ATAGahzU06xKLbCQjJAZU_LgBhSNo_n0SGNC9_cJNH0rD4vC1kIibBsCHSXz3hk/s1600-h/P1110448.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgi77unfHJwAB_9L9-av2LTlqiBZNDgA3TskKTcW6Dkc63rpzNWGREY-OSevUpuMdsipF-0D2oJyqD8ATAGahzU06xKLbCQjJAZU_LgBhSNo_n0SGNC9_cJNH0rD4vC1kIibBsCHSXz3hk/s200/P1110448.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440387019088471922" border="0" /></a></div><br />The food was SO good.

Here's a pic of the recipe with picture in the cookbook of how it is SUPPOSED to look.

It was so great to be there. Jessica has been living out of California for a couple of years and it is SO good to have her back. This was day was kind of like a flash back in time. What a blessed time!!<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">TRIPLE THREAT THURSDAY</span><br />Thursday was a big day for me. There were 3 great things that happened. First things first.... I had my regular doctor's <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11">appointment</span> for the baby. Baby checks out absolutely healthy and everything looks good. Yippee!! I am now 36 weeks pregnant. I'm really starting to look the part now, huh? .... finally. :-)<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUOY7wa6RLX3-GdoWllmGiRQch_Zv_zsk84-cJz6gFcb_RbcBcUjImdk4BECTFJHDlYNjzM97kNMGHY3jtQVFa0Y2QOSwz1IMhbo4U5RchdlJ9SavOH-ka0gUS4S6ITQvZSQybxX_9Yp8/s1600-h/P1110443.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 180px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUOY7wa6RLX3-GdoWllmGiRQch_Zv_zsk84-cJz6gFcb_RbcBcUjImdk4BECTFJHDlYNjzM97kNMGHY3jtQVFa0Y2QOSwz1IMhbo4U5RchdlJ9SavOH-ka0gUS4S6ITQvZSQybxX_9Yp8/s320/P1110443.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440384760362192498" border="0" /></a></div><br />I also found out at my Dr's <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12">appt</span> that I could potentially find out the sex of the baby. Since one of my glucose tests (out of three) turned out to be a little bit high, they want to have another ultrasound on March 4<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13">th</span> to check the weight of the baby. If I wanted to, I could very well find out the sex of the baby at this time. This is a tough one for me. I have already waited this long so I kind of tell myself that i could just wait until the baby is born.... BUT..... then there's that part of me that says "The information is RIGHT THERE!!! Just find out!!". What do you guys think I should do? It will be hard not to find out. :-)<br /><br />The second thing that was great about Thursday was that I got to have a one-on-one lunch with my WONDERFUL friend, Grace. She was at lunch with us on Wednesday, which was wonderful, but I ALWAYS love my one-on-one time with people. We decided to go to Baker's, which is a classic, favorite of ours. We've been going there together since high school. It's not the healthiest but we always find things that fit in to our budget. :-) Sorry no pics! So busy chatting it up that I didn't even think to take a pic. :-(<br /><br />And now the third thing that was great about Thursday.... We went to the playoffs. Thursday was our first (and last) game of the playoffs. We had such an amazing game! The other team was by far better than our team but our girls probably played one of our best games of the WHOLE season!! I was (and am) <span style="font-weight: bold;">SO</span> proud of them! While I am a little relieved that the season is over (cause I'm exhausted), I am really going to miss the girls. They all such amazing personalities. I never went to a practice or game without one of them making me laugh. :-) So, thank you to Natalie, Lydia, Jillian, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14">Mariah</span>, Jamie, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15">Caley</span>, and Tiffany for making this season such a wonderful experience for me. And thank you to Matt McCormick (our head coach) for asking me to assist him and join the journey. It has been a great ride!! And I leave Triple Thursday with some great pics from the game last night - compliments of Mrs. Bobbi! :-) First pic is of me and Matt, the wonderful head coach. And the second pic is of both teams praying at together at half court - gotta love that!!! Enjoy the rest of the pics!!<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZ5hwKc7rHBFz2V5ghgc-jw4tXgLYFB77zFuQKRbmsUQY825AUW9-6t2VpwbyrtLd2KKVzZ4vmhKCM9yzlAQ7izIU1yHOji_x7J_E2yY9AL1wdMJpGtcmBOnMUg937vmKUxI4jDRGCQIQ/s1600-h/IMG_6885_thumb.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer;

Friday!!!</span><br />And now it is Friday! Woo <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16">hoo</span>! While it has been a great week, I am exhausted and glad it's Friday. And for Friday I have a bit of great news.... I just got hired as an Instructional Paraprofessional for the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17">Redlands</span> Unified School District!! And they don't even care that I am 9 months pregnant and I will be on maternity leave within a week. <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">How awesome is that!?!?!?</span> Another thing that is great about this is that I substituted in the class that I will be working in for about a week before getting hired and I already know that I get along with the teacher I will be working with and I already know what to expect (for the most part) from the job and the students. YES!! That pretty much wraps up this wonderful week.... but unfortunately with all this GREAT stuff, the week ended kind of on a bummer....<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: left;">Taylor and I were planning a surprise "Big Brother" dinner for Tyler tonight and we were gonna make one of his favorite dinners, which would be spaghetti with garlic bread, salad, and some fruit on the side. And I was going to make a cake and decorate it for the big brother. We also bought Tyler this shirt that we thought was really cool, which says "Big Brother" on it. Tyler is still quite insecure about his place in this family so we want to make sure that he knows that a baby joining the family is a good thing and that that does not put him out of the family. But then something unfortunate <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18">happened</span>..... Tyler's school called me at almost noon to tell me that Tyler was sick and needed to be picked up. So, Tyler actually ended up being sick in bed for the rest of the day and we didn't do the Big Brother dinner. It's a good thing that he didn't know about it or else he would have been REALLY upset. But here's the pic of the shirt we got for him. What do you guys think?<br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgC6isaV1aLIGHVD0sVlMatzST9QgXE1wavXVb9SeAc3wD5KUljNheSI7ccxmR7CbrMgizGiKu2-OSk9nDLma_fsRavoOkXQvseOozLrOrIrI2KPpy2lm2jJDID0Vdh-T6A-Qrl00AhMYM/s1600-h/P1110525.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 243px; height: 323px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgC6isaV1aLIGHVD0sVlMatzST9QgXE1wavXVb9SeAc3wD5KUljNheSI7ccxmR7CbrMgizGiKu2-OSk9nDLma_fsRavoOkXQvseOozLrOrIrI2KPpy2lm2jJDID0Vdh-T6A-Qrl00AhMYM/s200/P1110525.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440392534571326610" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">So, that is my wrap-up of my wonderful week.

And since she was unable to come to the baby shower, I told her that I would post lots of pictures so that it would feel like she was there.

We had our final game of the league. If we would have lost, our season would be OVER. But if we won, we would have a 97% (pretty much a 100%) chance of going to the play-offs. Can you feel the <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">pressure</span>?!?!?!? Well, it was an EXTREMELY close game. The final score was <span style="font-weight: bold;">42-40</span>!!! It was so intense. But I am SO proud of my girls because they left it ALL out there on the floor and pulled out the victory!!<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">I brought my camera to take pictures of the girls during the game but it was too intense that I couldn't do it.

It was hosted by the wonderful Matt & <a href="http://www.bobbimccormick.com/"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Bobbi McCormick</span></a>. They throw a great party! They had three TVs on throughout the house. My favorite one was in the garage with the ping pong table. Plus, it was cooler in there (temperature-wise) and I need to make sure that at 8 1/2 months pregnant that I keep myself cool.<br /><br />Now, I have to ask... Is it strange that I went to a Super Bowl party without even knowing who is playing in the game??? I honestly had no idea until Matt told me. Then I think I didn't even watch the game at all, perhaps a few seconds. Watched the half time show for a moment and then we left.... Definitely not a football fan, here. :-)<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">BUT</span> I definitely had to grub while I was there!! You can't go to a McCormick Party without getting some GOOD food! They were really smart about the food planning.

And I do apologize to anyone if I didn't get a chance to talk to you much. I'm so sorry!!<br /><br />So, here are some pics of the awkward part of the shower for me. Again, I don't know why but I just feel so strange with everybody just staring at me opening gifts.

Baby Shower!!So, yesterday I was just thinking that I should do a weekend wrap-up for last weekend... but then I realized it was already Friday and the end of the week and time to do a week in review. I never got to writing that post but I can't believe the week just flew by like that!! It is Saturday night and I am absolutely EXHAUSTED!!! Last weekend I went to a baby shower that I really wanted to post pictures for but I am feeling WAY too lazy right now. But it was a great shower with lots of GOOD food and interesting games. It was for my friend, <a href="http://thedimillos.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Teresa</span></a>, who I wrote about in a previous blog. And the rest of the week has been pretty busy - filled with Dr.'s <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">appts</span>, work for wire harness company, work for the school district, coaching basketball, dates with friends, planning for the baby shower, and of course the ever-important family time. I honestly don't know how I made it through the week. But here I am, dragging through the end of my Saturday. So, here it is... My Baby Shower!!! :-)<br /><br />I must say I was SO nervous about throwing a baby shower because I have never done it before and I have only been to a couple of them myself. But I think that in the end the shower turned out pretty good - I hope. I have to definitely thank my wonderful mom and dad who were so instrumental in getting the shower together. My mom cooked ALL the food which everyone loved and my dad set up the room at the church where he works and did much of the heavy moving of tables and such for set up and clean up. I have also to thank my awesome friend, Grace, who was wonderful enough to run the show. She led all the games, passed out the cake, and wrote down all the gifts that I received. So, here's some pics from the party.<br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">We start with the signs that pointed people to where the party was...

I don't know why but I have always HATED opening presents in front of people. Well, apparently at baby showers, you HAVE to open the presents while your guests are still there. I don't totally get it but I guess that's the rule. And I was going to post some of the pics of the stuff that I got but I will have to save that for tomorrow because I am exhausted and don't have the patience to wait for the pictures to download. So, tomorrow there will be more pics from the baby shower. Good night everyone!! :-)<br /></div></div><input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input onclick="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" type="hidden"><div id="refHTML"></div>3T Heppenstallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01943880324828353037noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8472393951264072215.post-24431520943977046852010-01-23T21:40:00.000-08:002010-01-23T22:45:40.575-08:00A Week In ReviewSo, I was supposed to post again on Monday and all of a sudden it is already Saturday. The week just flew right by!! I can't believe how fast it has been going. Sometimes the days seem long but the week just flies right by. As of this week I am OFFICIALLY 32 weeks... That's 8 months!! I feel like it was just yesterday that I announced that i was pregnant. I must admit that I have had such an easy pregnancy! I have been so lucky with this one. I hope the labor is just as smooth! Here is my 32-week picture. I am definitely looking <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">prego</span> now!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTdHTs9y4tdtKf_OLY3jVU1bOngAEQKTtfZzMVxoESS3j-pncQELUmU4xeMfRLzrIb0FVtJQLq8Ysuv283UCti8shBudrDqWAj1vylVRGT-D3v_HX7lxVKWPJ9w83tEMVgvlOI3KKQC-c/s1600-h/P1110239.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTdHTs9y4tdtKf_OLY3jVU1bOngAEQKTtfZzMVxoESS3j-pncQELUmU4xeMfRLzrIb0FVtJQLq8Ysuv283UCti8shBudrDqWAj1vylVRGT-D3v_HX7lxVKWPJ9w83tEMVgvlOI3KKQC-c/s320/P1110239.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430191320244139442" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Tuesday: </span>This week my girls had a basketball game and they played AWESOME!! I must say that this was probably their best game all season. They played SO much like a team. I was so proud of them!! :-) I have no pictures from the game cause I am certainly to busy being in to the game but I will have to get someone to take pictures soon as the season ends mid-February (unless we go to play-offs, of course).<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Wednesday: </span>On Wednesday I went over to my friend, Teresa's, house for some pancakes. She is 3 weeks behind in her pregnancy. She has been having a bit of a rough pregnancy and is currently on bed rest so I was happy to go over there and make some pancakes. If I would have been thinking a little bit more clearly, I would have certainly brought my camera. But I'm not that bummed because the pancakes didn't look like anything special. She is stuck on her couch all day, everyday, so I am going to try to go over there every Wednesday morning and either bring her breakfast or make her breakfast. Teresa is an old acquaintance from high school. I say acquaintance because I don't think either one of us would say we were friends in high school. We got along but I we didn't ever hang out. But shortly after I became pregnant we reconnected and have been bonding and building a relationship as we go through our pregnancies together. Another hilarious thing is that her husband's name is Todd and they are going to name their daughter <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Taelyn</span>. That's all T's - just like us!! Cool, huh? Perhaps that's only cool to me. :-)<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Terecita</span> & Teresa. Can you believe my name means "Little Teresa" but I am the giant. Believe it or not, I am 3 weeks ahead of her. :-)<br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaNNYYU7iW2SghRN6pmWVDGHplD-lNmAi-nCfLKM7g6hKqFWO7FB21QHPEobbtTEhAjsLfrGkWirDK7DfZEAi-KyZqlNJbpDlzRR_Jk46Aj4ri_i3496qk6UWTk9Bk02V5gL5aaLUOgoM/s1600-h/T+n+T+DiMillo.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaNNYYU7iW2SghRN6pmWVDGHplD-lNmAi-nCfLKM7g6hKqFWO7FB21QHPEobbtTEhAjsLfrGkWirDK7DfZEAi-KyZqlNJbpDlzRR_Jk46Aj4ri_i3496qk6UWTk9Bk02V5gL5aaLUOgoM/s320/T+n+T+DiMillo.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430193321794701010" border="0" /></a><br />In addition, our adoption social worker that has been doing our home study came by to see us and he gave us our "official" letter stating that our home study was approved. That is so nice to have. And a brief update on the court case is that birth rights were officially terminated on December 14<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">th</span> of 2009 and we have since then just been in the 60-day waiting period to see if the birth parents appeal. As of today, neither parent has appealed. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">YAY</span>! If after the 60 days no one has appealed, then we can probably finalize by March/April!!! However, if one of the parents do appeal, there will be a minimum of a 6-month appeal process. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Grr</span>... So, I really hope they don't appeal.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Friday:</span> On Friday morning I had to go in for a 3-hour glucose test. That meant that I had to get blood drawn <span style="font-weight: bold;">FOUR</span> times in 3 hours!! That was not fun. I had to fast before-hand and I was not allowed to eat or drink anything for the whole 3 hours. I also was not allowed to leave the building. Lucky for me there was another pregnant woman that had to do the test, too, that came in shortly after me so we pretty much talked the whole time which made the time fly by. But by the time the test was over, I was HUNGRY!!! So, I decided to treat myself to a pizza from The Gourmet Pizza Shoppe (a local pizza place). This place is a little bit expensive but I felt that I had earned it after getting a needle stuck in my arm four times in 3 hours.<br /><br />Friday night is usually family night. So, we decided that we were going to play with some Play-<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">Doh</span>. I'm sure that doesn't sound to exciting but we had a good time with it. Here is what we made:<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">This is mine.

So sad, huh? The hard part was that I actually things to post since my last post but I have been struggling to get the time. I had lots of baked goodies to share with you from Christmas - but I certainly feel that is way to late to post. I have my son's birthday, my birthday, my baby belly, and so many other things. i couldn't even begin to catch up on the last few weeks as I would have liked to. However, I really would like to get back in the groove again because I certainly miss it. I owuld love to hear any tips that you wonderful bloggers might have to help me stay consistent in blogging. Sometimes, I just feel like the days just pass by so fast. I don't know if it has to do with the pregnancy-lack of energy thing but I really hope to get posting again. Tomorrow I will definitely have another belly pic as this week I will be 32 weeks - EIGHT MONTHS!! That is so crazy. It has actually gone by so fast. I must admit that I have actually had a pretty easy pregnancy. I didn't have major morning sickness in the beginning like many do, and I don't have a lot of the aches and pains either. I am starting to have a hard time sleeping but my body pillow definitely helps with that. :-) I have also been lucky enough to still have energy and kind of be able to exercise. I was still low-level basketball with my team in my 6th month (and a little in my 7th). Now I still am pretty active at work and exercise-wise. My son and I are supposed to start going on walks together this week but it is predicted to rain a lot this week so we shall see. :-) Anyhow, this post has been a lot of rambling without any bit of structure. I do apologize for that but I felt the need to post right now. I truly hope that everyone is experiencing blessings and I will look forward to posting again tomorrow.3T Heppenstallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01943880324828353037noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8472393951264072215.post-2751360790154589122009-12-24T09:19:00.000-08:002009-12-24T09:33:38.109-08:00Holiday Newsletter<meta equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><meta name="ProgId" content="Word.Document"><meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 11"><meta name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 11"><link rel="File-List" href="file:///C:%5CDOCUME%7E1%5CADMINI%7E1%5CLOCALS%7E1%5CTemp%5Cmsohtml1%5C01%5Cclip_filelist.xml"><link rel="Edit-Time-Data" href="file:///C:%5CDOCUME%7E1%5CADMINI%7E1%5CLOCALS%7E1%5CTemp%5Cmsohtml1%5C01%5Cclip_editdata.mso"><!--[if !mso]> <style> v\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);} o\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);} w\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);} .shape {behavior:url(#default#VML);} </style> <![endif]--><o:smarttagtype namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" name="City"></o:smarttagtype><o:smarttagtype namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" name="place"></o:smarttagtype><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:worddocument> <w:view>Normal</w:View> <w:zoom>0</w:Zoom> <w:punctuationkerning/> <w:validateagainstschemas/> <w:saveifxmlinvalid>false</w:SaveIfXMLInvalid> <w:ignoremixedcontent>false</w:IgnoreMixedContent> <w:alwaysshowplaceholdertext>false</w:AlwaysShowPlaceholderText> <w:compatibility> <w:breakwrappedtables/> <w:snaptogridincell/> <w:wraptextwithpunct/> <w:useasianbreakrules/> <w:dontgrowautofit/> </w:Compatibility> <w:browserlevel>MicrosoftInternetExplorer4</w:BrowserLevel> </w:WordDocument> </xml><![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:latentstyles deflockedstate="false" latentstylecount="156"> </w:LatentStyles> </xml><![endif]--><!--[if !mso]><object classid="clsid:38481807-CA0E-42D2-BF39-B33AF135CC4D" id="ieooui"></object> <style> st1\:*{behavior:url(#ieooui) } </style> <![endif]--><style> <!-- /* Font Definitions */ @font-face {font-family:"Monotype Corsiva"; panose-1:3 1 1 1 1 2 1 1 1 1; mso-font-charset:0; mso-generic-font-family:script; mso-font-pitch:variable; mso-font-signature:647 0 0 0 159 0;} /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {mso-style-parent:""; margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:Arial; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} @page Section1 {size:8.5in 11.0in; margin:.5in .5in .5in .5in; mso-header-margin:.5in; mso-footer-margin:.5in; mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 {page:Section1;} -</style>This year we were going to mail out a holiday newsletter but I lost almost everyone's address when I lost my cell phone.

This year has flown by so fast that we can’t believe Christmas is right around the corner! This has been an especially trying year for us but also a very rewarding year. Many of you have been so important to the survival of our family and we truly thank you for everything that you have done for us - prayers, gifts, encouragement, support, a shoulder to lean on, and often an ear to vent to.

I think this is my favorite time of the year - probably because Christmas is my favorite holiday! This year we are really trying to start some of our own family traditions now that we have had Tyler for over a year and we have a baby on the way. In previous years we have always gone to my parents' and in-laws' and done whatever they do. But I think this year that we are going to stay home and make our own Christmas Family Traditions. I can hardly wait!! Last year, we already started one - which is to have hot chocolate with warm bread for breakfast on Christmas morning. We just dip the bread in to the hot chocolate. It probably sounds really weird but I really like it and always have since I was a kid. Mmmm!!!<br /><br />And I think one of our new traditions that we started this year will be decorating on Thanksgiving weekend. We had our <a href="http://ajourneytoshare.blogspot.com/2009/11/pajama-staycation.html">Staycation</a> on Black Friday and we started our decorating on that day. And then we put up our Christmas Tree on Saturday. It was great! :-) I think that's the way to do it again next year! Much better for us than going out with all the craziness in the stores. We didn't do a lot of decorating but it is enough for us.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Our Christmas Tree with stockings hanging next to it. (I apologize for the bad picture.

And we got some pretty cool Snowflake candles at the 99 Cent Store. They are great!<br /><div style="text-align: left;"><br /><div style="text-align: center;">And since I already had marshmallows and Rice Krispies, I couldn't help but make another batch of Rice Krispy Treats! This time I added a couple of big spoonfuls of peanut butter. They were pretty darn good - although that slightly takes away from the ooey gooey-ness. But still very delish!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7aOdJ9A0431oRS3hxoyO1aFMN54Mk6ifJhMmWAu4YUjOZx9LUDU-XyTiPygQmw7kZtr42JkKMtBS7eAaFsWzjAk774A0hnTM5VNinQCmjzrm1TZ6cDn3VsQRNyS3d6j_lPPfxoxtQ64g/s1600/P1110119.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7aOdJ9A0431oRS3hxoyO1aFMN54Mk6ifJhMmWAu4YUjOZx9LUDU-XyTiPygQmw7kZtr42JkKMtBS7eAaFsWzjAk774A0hnTM5VNinQCmjzrm1TZ6cDn3VsQRNyS3d6j_lPPfxoxtQ64g/s320/P1110119.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5410308574753223186" border="0" /></a></div></div><br /></div>Another thing I love about Christmas is giving gifts. The reason that we celebrate Christmas is certainly not for the gifts but I still can't help but love to give gifts. It probably makes me feel better than the person receiving the gift when I know that it's exactly something they wanted. This year we are pretty tight on money so I'm trying to think of things that I can make for people. Some of the best things that I received for gifts in the past were things that people made. I just felt that someone put so much thought and effort in to the gift. I'm thinking about whipping up lots of cookies, brownies, and rice krispy treats to start with. But I know there's something else I would like to make for people that they can use. I can't wait!! :-)<br /><br />Now, on to the reason for the season... I don't know where all of you bloggers' beliefs are but I am a firm believer that Jesus Christ is the reason why Christmas should be celebrated. I fully believe that Christ died for our sins and rose again three days later. He was the ultimate sacrifice for us so that we may join Him in Heaven. I truly believe that is the ultimate gift of sacrifice and the least we could do is celebrate His birth. Although, I must say that we certainly don't celebrate His resurrection enough. Perhaps that should change... hmmm...<br /><br /><i><b>What Christmas traditions do you love to do with your family and/or friends?</b></i><input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input onclick="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" type="hidden"><div id="refHTML"></div>3T Heppenstallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01943880324828353037noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8472393951264072215.post-79348432281223482562009-11-30T15:08:00.001-08:002009-11-30T15:14:37.354-08:00Operation Chocolate-Covered KindnessThis post is going to be extremely brief due to being short on time but I really wanted to take a moment to plug another generous blogger.

I hope that you all had a splendid Thanksgiving!! Ours was great. Sadly, I managed to take ZERO pictures. We went to eat dinner at my parents' house. I wish I would have taken pictures cause everything was so DELISH!! My dad made one of his best turkeys this year! We also had all the goods on the side: stuffing, potato salad, rolls, collard greens, corn, sweet potatoes, gravy (of course!!), cranberry sauce, and let's not forget dessert - which we had pumpkin pie, apple pie, and rice krispy treats!!! Everything was so good that I wish I had more room in my stomach! For the most part, that is all I have to report for Thanksgiving since I took no pictures. Everything is always low-key at my parents' house. When we go to my in-laws' house there is a lot more going on. Maybe next year we will go there (or go to both like normal).<br /><br />Oh wait! I did forget that the boys went outside and started working on our garden after we got back. I don't how they did that cause I was completely ready for sleep, even though it was only 4pm. All they did was start digging up the ground. They dug out about 10 of these 1-foot squares of grass. Taylor told me that he was going to use it to make Tyler a "Lawn Chair". While, I thought he was joking, he really did make Tyler a LAWN chair. It was pretty funny. It even included an end table. :-) Very creative!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeEoPDQlUSe-BCaUWyLLKseiWrshF7OxHSCDMChWg9gBQ5Qd9Ran3QjcDHsqVR-GUdQ-k4qlMFiGJpvSSAD7IVBMNrsld4NgSZSs_FixE3iqXgu42xZ1n7eLIkpOShFux4OANuC5IUDEg/s1600/Lawn+Chair4.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeEoPDQlUSe-BCaUWyLLKseiWrshF7OxHSCDMChWg9gBQ5Qd9Ran3QjcDHsqVR-GUdQ-k4qlMFiGJpvSSAD7IVBMNrsld4NgSZSs_FixE3iqXgu42xZ1n7eLIkpOShFux4OANuC5IUDEg/s320/Lawn+Chair4.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5409019715607161026" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIGYHRsLy6tyCtM2LKZBz6h3nIyFBsM2Yk4LqfTg2zmnOXQPKr8tNa96UAZ2vhepARJ_nffUyJbeQCfDxFSvaERaoPV7-HXSE0GWDLRWnRE31kBExMLEyecgTM5uJW1vIcxUBb5f5kFsA/s1600/Lawn+Chair1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIGYHRsLy6tyCtM2LKZBz6h3nIyFBsM2Yk4LqfTg2zmnOXQPKr8tNa96UAZ2vhepARJ_nffUyJbeQCfDxFSvaERaoPV7-HXSE0GWDLRWnRE31kBExMLEyecgTM5uJW1vIcxUBb5f5kFsA/s320/Lawn+Chair1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5409020353002699026" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj22MWRDsv8Vblx4C3rdYpNf_MFrXxtjhwrxoHLcGEIRDG2h8XWPb5MxF2QkBK3Rm47DvXgWMh2T-51hGS6dPTyFiAtcvsTY28HupPreDunmI9kokgw9Naf2vZwohfk2BWbC1AKK2EpS2I/s1600/Lawn+Chair2.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj22MWRDsv8Vblx4C3rdYpNf_MFrXxtjhwrxoHLcGEIRDG2h8XWPb5MxF2QkBK3Rm47DvXgWMh2T-51hGS6dPTyFiAtcvsTY28HupPreDunmI9kokgw9Naf2vZwohfk2BWbC1AKK2EpS2I/s320/Lawn+Chair2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5409787693314830546" border="0" /></a><br />On to our PAJAMA STAYCATION!!!<br /><br />We decided that today was going to be an absolute chill day. Originally, it was going to be all three of us but then the hubby decided that he had to work. :-( But we still decided to make the best of it. Last night we prepared EVERYTHING so that today we wouldn't have to make anything, wash anything, or make any effort other than for our simple enjoyment. So, last night, we cut up fruits and veggies, made sandwiches, made a pumpkin, and made some rice krispy treats. We made sure that we had enough food for us to last through the day.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">So, we started the morning with mini muffins, lots of fruit (watermelon, cantaloupe, grapes, oranges), bagels, and some nature's valley trail mix bars.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpZ_UC_BsYHE-c6xvK1nRh52LOukJ51B38ChSbbejRy168vhI7LjFONRuQ41Zrwutptgbn2FuFbUC3xBUpS0mqn7GVIe3dD4LrLXDM9sPxZt25aXNQPqW6UbZyuHcQtZh4TbBt5ky8wqU/s1600/Staycation1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpZ_UC_BsYHE-c6xvK1nRh52LOukJ51B38ChSbbejRy168vhI7LjFONRuQ41Zrwutptgbn2FuFbUC3xBUpS0mqn7GVIe3dD4LrLXDM9sPxZt25aXNQPqW6UbZyuHcQtZh4TbBt5ky8wqU/s320/Staycation1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5409014053543409538" border="0" /></a><div style="text-align: left;">At about 11:30ish, I started bringing out the sandwiches. We made tuna, PB & J, and just jelly. All the sandwiches were cut in to four squares. I don't have any pics of this because hubby had already left for work and I was using his cell phone to take the pictures (still camera-less).<br /><br />Throughout the day, we spent the whole day hanging out. We played a couple of games of Yahtzee - I won once, and Tyler won once, we watched a movie (Disney's Tarzan), we did a couple of crafts, we started some Christmas decorating, and did LOTS of snacking!<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">We cut out and decorated some self-standing stars, using poster board, glitter and sticker stars. Tyler originally put puff balls on his star but then decided he didn't want them.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJ2MYkx_uUIQzVAMBf3GGvZpo3zgo88xZrWTM62cnA6QplAUBQKGuUPgMB2PgoYjxs_ITgurihiHAK8BDfR_d_TksWgl5hNiGZ0JJB5I5k29N45yoViiscf7IMTFcCxzOPKMuwM47mzio/s1600/Staycation3.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJ2MYkx_uUIQzVAMBf3GGvZpo3zgo88xZrWTM62cnA6QplAUBQKGuUPgMB2PgoYjxs_ITgurihiHAK8BDfR_d_TksWgl5hNiGZ0JJB5I5k29N45yoViiscf7IMTFcCxzOPKMuwM47mzio/s320/Staycation3.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5409016359763461042" border="0" /></a></div>Later, we decorated our Christmas stockings. I don't know why we didn't do this year, but I guess that's a good thing because it gave us the opportunity to do it this year. We used glitter, foam stickers, and puff balls. Tyler and I decorated the hubby's stocking for him since he wasn't here (and he's not really that into doing artsy-craft type things).<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHwnytk1mNSWje1IdYY0qdFrr6DLHsTsa401mUiLEfYdfQc99kf4-8cD6J_7KmznFLy2c5fHqxrBfNC_9APwIjGIJJJK5mcEKIyy9ilkSmGMZMUNKIP8AAQXTKnv9IL0JYbZRX0QBpvdw/s1600/Staycation5.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHwnytk1mNSWje1IdYY0qdFrr6DLHsTsa401mUiLEfYdfQc99kf4-8cD6J_7KmznFLy2c5fHqxrBfNC_9APwIjGIJJJK5mcEKIyy9ilkSmGMZMUNKIP8AAQXTKnv9IL0JYbZRX0QBpvdw/s320/Staycation5.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5409017428570828034" border="0" /></a><br />After that, I started busting out some of the dessert-type snacks, like Chips Ahoy Chewy Chocolate Chip cookies, Rice Krispy Treats, Pumpkin pie.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">I, of course, went straight for a Rice Krispy Treat!!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZfwKasI_Utqg0rLe8iESkykOejm7gB3BviReqfU5tCjzIXg2_q0xQgTSX0dZVjpcDollkKnGQc7_GRO1ZOMkzU1lYKFRo06GzCtwWdj-7_K2yP9NI_1eFcTbgRP_g2fztTErxaqgZhQY/s1600/Staycation6.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZfwKasI_Utqg0rLe8iESkykOejm7gB3BviReqfU5tCjzIXg2_q0xQgTSX0dZVjpcDollkKnGQc7_GRO1ZOMkzU1lYKFRo06GzCtwWdj-7_K2yP9NI_1eFcTbgRP_g2fztTErxaqgZhQY/s320/Staycation6.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5409018322720872562" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: left;">Amongst all this goodness, we managed to start putting up Christmas decorations, and we watched a movie, and just enjoyed each others' company. It was quite a much-needed, relaxing day. We should do this more often. We didn't have to once think of what to eat. We just snacked ALL day! It was the best way for us to spend BLACK FRIDAY!! Much better than crazy shopping. :-)<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">How did you all spend your Black Friday??</span></span><br /><br />Tomorrow we are hoping to get in a couple hours up in Angelous Oaks to enjoy some of the great nature that we have out here while the weather is so nice out here. We're not sure if we are going to be able to do this cause hubby is planning on working a half-day, but that usually turns in to a whole day. Hopefully not this time.<br /><br />I hope everyone had an awesome Thanksgiving and is enjoying the rest of their Thanksgiving weekend!!<br /></div></div><br /></div></div><input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input onclick="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" type="hidden"><div id="refHTML"></div><input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input onclick="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" type="hidden"><div id="refHTML"></div>3T Heppenstallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01943880324828353037noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8472393951264072215.post-70510521959499642942009-11-23T21:48:00.001-08:002009-11-23T22:16:55.381-08:00Weekend Wrap Up<span style="font-family: arial;">I know that Friday really was not that long ago but it seems like it was so far away that I really have to think about what happened. So, as I sit here I remember that I did not work at all on Friday. It was kind of nice to not work but at the same time we certainly need the money. I pretty much spent the day at my son's school. There was an Awards Assembly. It took like 2 hours!! The sad part is that the folders that were supposed to hold the certificates for the kids in my son's class somehow got misplaced so they actually did not get the awards until just before lunch. So, we sat there for two hours for nothing!!! But then after the awards assembly, Tyler got to run in his first official race. Every year his school holds an annual Turkey Trot, which basically is about a quarter of a mile. Tyler actually got 8<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">th</span> place out of all the 4<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">th</span> grade boys!! He was so excited! I unfortunately have no picture cause I lost my camera (or it got stolen - a whole other story). But his teacher took a pic of him racing but he hasn't emailed it to me yet. :-( But I will sure to post it as soon as I get it. As far as Friday night is concerned, I honestly can not remember what we did on Friday night. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Hmmm</span>.... I must be getting old.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Saturday was a relax day. We slept in and wore our <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">PJs</span> for the first half of the day. Tyler and I watched an old movie, Ernest Saves Christmas, while eating our breakfast. If you have never seen it, it is one of those movies that are so stupid that it makes you actually laugh. It's very cheesy. Taylor, unfortunately, had to work all day on Saturday so we didn't get to hang out with him too much until the evening. Tyler and I pretty much just lounged around all day. He had some chores to do that hadn't been done earlier in the week and then it was just hang out time. We did some cuddling up (which loves to do - but won't admit in front of friends, of course), drawing, and he played with his <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">LEGOS</span>. When Taylor got home, the three of us all had dinner together. And again, I have to say that I don't remember what we had for dinner. It must not have been very exciting. Then after dinner we played some Scrabble while having hot chocolate. It was some good family time. Then after that we were all pretty tired so it was time for bed. :-)</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Sunday morning, I got up and decided that I wanted some pancakes. I just used the Bisquick boxed stuff where you just add water. But then I added some cut up bananas and pecans. It was <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">sooo</span> good. We even sprinkled some extra pecans on top. On the side we had scrambled eggs and some good, crisp grapes. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">Mmm</span>.... Pardon the not so great pics as I am still using a cell phone since my camera is MIA. :-(</span><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3NUFOaRMJDoa3LIJtOt31g-15S_a2LCZvHI-FwDdei87RzmhmbmKo_t-Wuh6cYYClHeIry3qD7YXTLoPORVwhLcl5bpFvJE23Jy-wwZ1G1pFqN8CJHmuNneFqgLHecDtXC-HTPxrWbGk/s1600/Banana+Nut+Pancakes1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3NUFOaRMJDoa3LIJtOt31g-15S_a2LCZvHI-FwDdei87RzmhmbmKo_t-Wuh6cYYClHeIry3qD7YXTLoPORVwhLcl5bpFvJE23Jy-wwZ1G1pFqN8CJHmuNneFqgLHecDtXC-HTPxrWbGk/s320/Banana+Nut+Pancakes1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5407543188850780530" border="0" /></a><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDrNHJlg0gxICiC23BXWjUWqSUA1XhLQgbTEa8e6Kc3xdhIgSX0BtbCkphKrL_XAwoD84uaH6MDWedMtNA78FCg5kQZ5ZNjtG2I_dWm7t453HqAiXQyoq7MkibceqnLD2C28pQvZ19y8g/s1600/Banana+Nut+Pancakes2.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDrNHJlg0gxICiC23BXWjUWqSUA1XhLQgbTEa8e6Kc3xdhIgSX0BtbCkphKrL_XAwoD84uaH6MDWedMtNA78FCg5kQZ5ZNjtG2I_dWm7t453HqAiXQyoq7MkibceqnLD2C28pQvZ19y8g/s320/Banana+Nut+Pancakes2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5407545465399426514" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">For lunch I made some PB & J sandwiches.

Blah!!!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">And then there is today - Monday. It was pretty uneventful. I went to work for only about 2 hours, which was not that exciting. And I came home to Tyler have an attitude with Taylor. More blah!! And then in the afternoon, I had to coach our basketball team. I am only the assistant coach (which is nice, since I'm pregnant) but the head coach is out of town for Thanksgiving. :-) It has been interesting getting to know the girls. I never really thought that I would want to teach or coach high <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">school students</span> but this actually could be a lot of fun - if we get a full team soon. It's a very small school and so far we only have four girls. We shall see...</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">For now, I am tired. It's only 10pm and I feel like it's midnight. I guess that's what pregnancy does to you. :-)</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Oh! I almost forgot to post the picture of me wearing the maternity outfit that my awesome friend, Beth, got me.

So, she showed up this morning with a wonderful gift for me. :-) She went out and bought me my first maternity outfit. I like it so much. I don't think the picture does it justice (since it was on a cell phone) but the outfit is right up my alley. She knows me so well!!

I was going to write this post last night but I just was exhausted once the child was in bed. Blah! No excuse, right?!?!? :-)<br /><br /></span>I did want to share what he had for dinner last night. I thought it was quite good. Something simple that I have never tried before. And it was especially good, cause my son decided he wanted to help. He really likes helping me cook. Maybe in a few years, he will be doing all the cooking for us. :-) Anyhow, here's what he had:<br /><br />- Chicken wings baked with poultry seasoning and A1 Sauce.<br />- Green beans<br />- Steamed rice<br />- Strawberries (which by the way were a great deal at the 99 cent store.)<br /><br />I was going to add some pictures right here of the meal but for some reason I can not find the cord that connects the camera to the computer. I actually took pictures of our meal and now I can't show them.... I am so lame. Totally slacking. I guess that's what happens when you take an unintentional hiatus. :-)<br /><br />And as for dinner tonight, I made turkey burgers, homemade french fries, and we had some more of those delish strawberries. We had to make sure to eat in a somewhat speedy way as I had to be at an athletics meeting at 6pm. We did pretty good. We started eating at 5:20 and still made it on time. :-)p<br /><br />So this week, on Thursday, we will be having our first actual practice. It should be quite interesting as only 4 girls showed up to the meeting. We will actually mostly be doing conditioning which kinda bums me out that I'm pregnant cause I would much rather be doing the running with them. :-) Just what I need to get my weight down to my goal but now I can't think about that because I am actually supposed to be gaining wait now. Grrr...<br /><br />Anyhow, I hope everyone has had a great Tuesday.3T Heppenstallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01943880324828353037noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8472393951264072215.post-28038538228732953982009-11-15T21:28:00.000-08:002009-11-15T21:48:42.516-08:00Some pics of our boy<span style="font-family:arial;">This is just going to be some pics of our boy and us.

What is up with that??? I really want to write more often but it just doesn't happen as it should. One thing that should make it easier is that I finally have my computer set up.... Woo Hoo!!! So, in my last post, I actually stated that I don't want to work at my job anymore. Well, recently, I have been directed towards two GREAT opportunities that are definitely more up my alley. They are:<br /><br />1) I've been volunteering in my son's classroom a lot recently. It is a Special Day Class for ED kids. Well, the teacher's assistants (or paraprofessionals, as they like to call them) are being forced to take all their vacation time during school days this year, due to budget cuts, instead of cashing out on them at the end of the year. So, my son's teacher, asked me if I would just apply to be a substitute assistant because he knows that I have plenty of experience with behavior challenges. He basically said that I help out so much in the class already that I might as well get paid for it. I thought that was a great idea! And it will work perfect with when Tyler is in school.<br /><br />2) My wonderful friend, Bobbi (who you may all know from <a href="http://nhershoes.blogspot.com/">N Her Shoes</a>), told me about a great opportunity where she works. She told me that her hubby is going to be coaching the girls' basketball team and would need an assistant, and they both thought of me to do it. I wouldn't get paid much but I would get paid a little to do something that I really enjoy! There is a coach's meeting this week and I'm already excited and nervous!!<br /><br />Both of these opportunities were presented to me this week and I couldn't believe it. God just works in amazing ways. I am definitely more inclined to work with the youth than to do a mindless job day in and day out. Now, don't get me wrong, the people that I work with and work for have been amazing but the actual job that I have to do everyday is not fulfilling in any way. So, those are my wonderful opportunities.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">UPDATES:</span><br />My last post stated that two important dates were coming up for our family. The first one was the day I was supposed to find out if I was having a boy or a girl. Well, unfortunately, the technician said that the baby was not in a position where they could tell. I personally took that to mean that we are having girl but that is certainly UNOFFICIAL. So, as of this time, I still don't know. :-(<br /><br />The second important date was for our court hearing with our son. We are very happy to report that the judge FINALLY terminated parental rights... it only took them 4 years after Tyler was pulled from their home... i just don't understand that. Anyhow, the birth mother was at the court hearing and she appealed - just as we expected. This is actually a good thing because now we can move towards just getting the appeal over with. The judge set another court date for Dec. 14th for the birth mother to present any evidence she may have as to why the courts should not terminate her rights. I can't believe that she still expects to get her son back after all this time of her not getting it together - and still not getting it together!! Anyhow, we are moving a step in the right direction. Now all we can do is wait right now. But if any of you remember on December 14th, we can certainly use your prayers.<br /><br />I wanted to close this post with some pics of us with Tyler but they were taking FOREVER to download so hopefully I will be able to post those tomorrow. I do apologize for the lack of photos. However, if you are interested, you can see the short video from the day that we told Tyler that we were going to be his parents. <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://tntheppenstall.blogspot.com/2008/08/day-tyler-found-out.html">Click here</a> if you are interested.<br /><br />I hope everyone is having a great weekend!! :-)</span>3T Heppenstallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01943880324828353037noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8472393951264072215.post-84604153915086401502009-10-22T20:07:00.001-07:002009-10-22T20:30:19.413-07:00Kreativ Blogger<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvizPfi6laNOUumtTZwEgEiasdoxr8-CeLDJug0hN0Cm-lxMpz_e740811vg43c-oTpuKDlluFtuDzljBawD2OQ_gxJfH8OJaRrXX7mDC-INuk7k4k2yBrxaLvdfX6DRA8KcYPon9_SxI/s1600-h/kreativ.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 220px; height: 220px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvizPfi6laNOUumtTZwEgEiasdoxr8-CeLDJug0hN0Cm-lxMpz_e740811vg43c-oTpuKDlluFtuDzljBawD2OQ_gxJfH8OJaRrXX7mDC-INuk7k4k2yBrxaLvdfX6DRA8KcYPon9_SxI/s320/kreativ.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395626959518790866" border="0" /></a>Just today I was ready my beautiful friend, <a href="http://nhershoes.blogspot.com/">Bobbi's</a>, blog over at N Her Shoes. She was given the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Kreativ Blogger Award</span> and then Bobbi so graciously awarded it to me. So, with that award comes the responsibility of sharing 7 things about myself that almost nobody else knows about. And then I award this to someone else who will share 7 things about themselves. I am honored that Bobbi would think of me but I certainly don't think that I am a creative blogger by any means, but I kind of think she was graciously trying to give me more exposure as I try to re-enter the wonderful blog world. So, here we go....<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">7 Things That Nobody Knows About Me:</span><br /><br />1. If I could, I would adopt many, many children.<br /><br />2. Babies seriously scare me. I hate not knowing what they need when they cry.<br /><br />3. I often wish that I could be an actress on a family-friendly television show.<br /><br />4. I prefer not to have cheese on anything but LOVE it on pizza! (But will still eat food with cheese when I am guest in someone's home).<br /><br />5. I was in choir in high school but I really can't sing.<br /><br />6. I want to learn how to ballroom dance.<br /><br />7. I don't want to work at my job anymore. People are really nice but job is not rewarding or fulfilling in any way.<br /><br />Now, 3 Bloggers to give the award to:<br /><br />1. <a href="http://thesophisticatedgourmet.blogspot.com/">Kamran</a> at The Sophisticated Gourmet<br /><br />2. <a href="http://objectsandevents.blogspot.com/">Lacey</a> at Common Objects and Everyday Events<br /><br />3. ALL OF YOU!! (Totally taking Bobbi's idea cause you are ALL creative and I would love to see all of your answers)<br /><br />So, that was the Kreativ Blogger Award. Again, I will say that I am honored that Bobbi would choose me. I gotta get back in the habit of writing. At least this time it only took me a little over a week (thanks Bobbi!!). We still haven't hooked up my computer but that will change things a lot when that happens. But if I don't write this weekend, I will definitely be posting next week for sure. We have two big events coming up next week:<br /><br />1. October 27th - I will have my sonogram where I find out if we are having a boy or a girl. I can't wait to find out!!<br /><br />2. October 28th - This is our next court date in the adoption process with our son, Tyler. This court date should terminate the birth families parental rights for good. Once that happens, the birth parents have the right to appeal, which they probably will. We have to wait 60 days just to see if they appeal. So, we are ready for the next phase but after that it is just a waiting game for us. So, if you remember, please do keep us in your prayers.<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Anyone have any big plans for this weekend??</span></span><br /><br />Have a Great Night Everyone!!3T Heppenstallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01943880324828353037noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8472393951264072215.post-48420853806860725782009-10-13T06:54:00.000-07:002009-10-13T07:20:48.616-07:00Finally...I am writing another post. It took me about another month and a half but I am here at last. It has been really hard for me to blog because since we moved, we haven't set up my computer so I have had to use my husband's computer. I haven't realized how inconvenient that is - especially when he is home. But this week we are setting up my computer so hopefully I will be able to get more posts in on a regular basis - instead of once every one to two months. So, let me see if I can catch you up on what's been going on. Really, right now, there are two big things that I want to share with you all.<br /><br />First, I will start with <span style="font-weight: bold;">MY NEW (USED ) CAR</span>!!! Just about a month ago, we finally got a car to replace our van that was out of commission. I love my new car. It is a 2000 Toyota Camry. I haven't taken any pictures of it yet but I will try to post some tomorrow (for real this time). I don't know if any of you read my other blog, <a href="http://tntheppenstall.blogspot.com/">The Three T's</a> but a little over a year ago I posted a picture of my old Camry completely crushed under a tree branch that fell on top of it. If you would like to see it, feel free to <a href="http://tntheppenstall.blogspot.com/2008/08/amazing-august-this-might-be-kinda-long.html"><span style="font-weight: bold;">check it out</span></a>. The post with this picture is kind of a long post because I recapped my whole month of August of last year. That was a busy month for us. But feel free to check it all as it gives a little glimpse of me and my family.<br /><br />So, now on to the <span style="font-weight: bold;">BIG NEWS</span>.... As of this coming Thursday, I will be <span style="font-weight: bold;">EIGHTEEN WEEKS PREGNANT!!</span> For the last couple of posts, I was constantly posting about how tired I was all the time... Well, this is why! :-) My due date has changed from March 27<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">th</span> to March 18<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">th</span> to March 22<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">nd</span>. So, I'm guessing some time in March :-). I got some sonograms at a Free Clinic in San <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Bernardino</span> that I am happy to post. I apologize if they are hard to see. Sometimes sonogram pics are hard to see the baby anyways but these pictures were in and out of my pocket for a couple of days before I scanned them. These pictures were taken at about 13 weeks.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">I like this one the best because looks like he/she is sitting ready for the world. :-)<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPGUPR5aE1J4HtuuF1-UiBchD3T0A0paD6ZifqEpWwFz2H6CwzxCLIgTA5q0wyVc134irMeSdQTSrR8BvyFcuM5x192gV8NyJWk4eFPNwiiXrq3I42liUqdMbRkBHfS2NY9QpoowLL5lo/s1600-h/Sonogram+one+9.09.09+001.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 243px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPGUPR5aE1J4HtuuF1-UiBchD3T0A0paD6ZifqEpWwFz2H6CwzxCLIgTA5q0wyVc134irMeSdQTSrR8BvyFcuM5x192gV8NyJWk4eFPNwiiXrq3I42liUqdMbRkBHfS2NY9QpoowLL5lo/s320/Sonogram+one+9.09.09+001.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392087598912689106" border="0" /></a><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">In this one the baby appears to be laying down.

So many things have happened since my last post that I don't even know where to start. For one, our family van totally broke down and is out of commission. We have not had it for about two months so we have been relying on other people to get all over the place. Ugh!! But tomorrow we are getting our replacement vehicle so I can hardly wait!!<br /><br />My son finally started school. It seems like it took forever for the first day of school to come, but I was so excited when it finally got here.<br /><br />I guess it hasn't been too big of a deal that I haven't been blogging recently because I haven't really been making any great meals throughout this summer. It has just been way too HOT!! Every Saturday we have a barbecue and cook lots of extras so we can have leftovers for a few days. Then everything else we eat is frozen foods or sandwiches. Pretty lame, huh?<br /><br />I do have more news that I will be looking forward to sharing but that will have to wait until my next post!! Right now I am going to try to get caught up on what's been going on with all of you!!<br /><br />Happy Monday!!3T Heppenstallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01943880324828353037noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8472393951264072215.post-22369191417543781322009-07-09T21:59:00.000-07:002009-07-16T18:42:54.378-07:00M.I.A.!!!Wow!! I can't believe that it has been over two weeks that I have been Missing In Action (MIA)!!! It seems like it went by so fast! The last time I wrote I talked about my son leaving for camp. Well, he came back so fast. It was amazing how tired I felt while he was gone. I thought that I would do so much while he was gone but as soon as I had the time, I just felt exhausted. I guess I didn't realize how tired I was until I actually had a moment to rest. And before I knew it, I was already picking my son up from camp. That week flew by in the blink of an eye. I did manage to get some time in to do stuff that I don't always get to do. On that Monday night, I went out to dinner and a movie with my wonderful friend, Beth. We went to Rubio's and chatted it up, grabbed a Mocha Frappucino from Starbuck's, and then headed off to the movies. We went to see <span style="font-style: italic;">The Proposal</span> which was REALLY funny. Also, during the week that my son was at camp, my husband and I managed to find some to go eat at Pick up Stix and get some Frozen Yogurt at TCBY and were just able to relax... a little. Before we knew it, Tyler was back and we had to get back in the groove of things. Don't get me wrong... I absolutely love my son, but it was really nice to have a break.<br /><br />I would love to recap you on all that has been going on since I last wrote but in all honesty it seems like such a blur. There have been barbecues, fireworks, swimming, meetings with social workers (blah!!), work, and so many other random things (some fun and some not). So, at this point I am hoping that I can do some major catching up on all of your blogs and perhaps gets some regular posts started up again. I will have to post some random pics up in one of my next blogs so that you can get a little dose of what I've been up to but as of right now, I want to catch up on what you have all been up to. And hopefully, you all haven't given up on reading my blog! :-)3T Heppenstallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01943880324828353037noreply@blogger.com0
