So again, I’m copying posts/pictures from Brian and Ashley’s page, but who cares? I want to spread the news too! 🙂
My brother Brian is officially a Comair First Officer as of yesterday! His first flight, actually flying the jet, with people in it (eep!) is Monday! He’s doing observation flights until then. Check out the details on Brian and Ashley’s webpage, and pictures as well by clicking below. Watch out skies, here he comes!

Last Thursday night, my mom, Ashley, her friend Erin and I went to Riverbend to see Toby Keith. I haven’t really listened to country since I was younger, but we had front row seats (first real row behind the pit) so I was IN! I didn’t know many songs, but he did play some old ones so that was great. We were really really close, got to see his sweat and nipples 🙂 Check out pictures by clicking here. They are on Ashley’s webpage…she just posted them so I decided to post about it too.

Quite a bit actually. Last weekend I was up in Cleveland for my best friend’s wedding. Congrats to Jason and Cindy! I was best man in the wedding and had a blast. Have you ever been toa wedding where Elvis makes an appearance? I didn’t think so 🙂
The following Monday, I went to the Bengals/Ravens game with Jim. I’ve only been to one other NFL game, and that was last year when I got to sit in Jeff Ruby’s box with Philip. This experience was completely different. In the box seats, it was like sitting in someone’s media room with a huge TV.  In the seats – now that totally makes the game! If I get to go to another one, It’d be fun to do some tailgating before hand. Thanks Jim!
Know anyone needing an SUV? I’m trying to sell the Durango to get into something a little German – an older model GTI or Jetta VR6.ÂÂ
I actually don’t have anything planned this weekend, which is nice. Been a little too busy lately. May be able to get some stuff done around the house and go to Trinity.

I’ve had 3 people point at my belly so far today and say “you’re poking out!” :-) Guess I’m starting to pop; thank God…I’m tired of looking like I just ate 2 Thanksgiving dinners every day! heheÂÂ

I had another baby dream last night. Well, a toddler dream, but either way, it was a boy. So that brings the tally to Boy – 2, Girl – 1.
Also, I hit the 15 week mark this morning. Time is really going fast now, but I’m sure it’ll go even faster as the weeks continue. I still haven’t “popped out” yet, but hopefully that’ll come in a week or two.ÂÂ
I had a Dr. visit last Thursday. We got to hear the heartbeat! Our little one is working hard in there! I’ve gained 5.5 pounds too. Actually I’ve lost .5 pounds since my last Dr. visit. Probably because I was eating every 45 minutes before, and for the last 3-4 weeks I’ve been eating normally/healthier again. Feeling great; no more nausea just really really tired.
Yes, we’re sorry about not getting a 14 week picture online. We got really busy last week and didn’t realize it until Thursday or Friday. We’ll try to remember to take one tonight. Not much has changed though.

For the Labor Day weekend, Paul and I went with our church to Cathedral Domain. The Episcopal Diocese of Lexington have over 800 acres of land near Irvine, KY that has a camp and conference center on it. Each church gets ‘a weekend’ at the Domain, and Labor Day is our church’s weekend. It’s a great time to meet members of the church. It’s not a retreat type weekend, it’s more of a ‘come and hang out and meet some people that you see every week’ type thing. It was great.
We could have stayed in a camp with 12 bunk beds on either side and share a restroom, but since it was our first year going, and we didn’t know that many people, we opted for what people referred to as the “Hilton,” which was more of a dorm-type setup, with a double occupancy room with it’s own bathroom. Quite spiffy for a camp!
We got to the Domain Friday night about 915pm, unloaded, then took a walk around to see what the place was like. We met a few people then headed off to bed. We spent the weekend hanging out with new friends, getting to know people, playing games, eating (a lot), sitting by the pool, having a few drinks (well…Paul anyway) and a lot of laughs. We did some hiking, and caving as well. We are really glad we went. We finally got to put names, and life stories to about 50 people that we’ve seen in church for years but never have gotten to know.
We’re really glad for the experience. We want to feel more a part of the church, especially because we’re bringing our little one into it. Everyone was very excited to hear that we are expecting. There were actually 2 other women that were pregnant at the Domain; one due in February, and one in April, so our little one will have instant friends!
