Quick entry…. I think I found a dress at Mimi-Maternity. Too cute! Of course I have to go try it on tonight. That might be a disaster. http://www.mimimaternity.com/Product.asp?category_Name=Special+Occasion&category_Id=3029&product_Id=52543029&MasterCategory_Id=3

I hope it fits ok. I really like it! I may try to find a cute top to wear with black slacks to the party on Friday night. I will need a cute dress and a cute top anyway for the few dressy occasions these next 5 months… 5 months!! Can you believe that I am 4 months preggo already?! On one hand the time flies and on the other it moves so slowly…

My darling MIL insisted that I take $20.00 towards my new dress. I hate taking money from others (other than my hubby, ha ha ) but she would have left it in various locations until I just kept it so it wouldn’t get lost. Very sweet of her. As much as I worry about the future of the house and what she will need in the way of care, we make a good little family, the 3, and soon to be 4 of us.

Speaking of MIL… she made her famous pumpkin bread last night. Not exactly the chocolate chip laden delicacy that Trishie’s Mom makes but it’s simple and yummy and I have a slice for a snack later in my lunch cooler. Yummy.

Matty plugged away at the Baby room last night and is making more and more progress. Someday soon.

I made spaghetti and meat sauce with some of the venison in the freezer. It was really good. I dressed up the sauce with lots of onions, bell peppers, diced tomatoes, garlic and ground venison. Then I just used a tomato & basil sauce from Kroger. You gotta love those ‘10 for $10.00’ sales at Kroger’s. $1.00 for a jar of spaghetti sauce!

Matty and I are trying to eat at home more and adjust our spending habits by doing so. I think it has really helped. It seems like a lot out of pocket at first because I try to buy for a week but in the long run it is helping. Not to mention that cooking has been a blast! I used to cook dinner all the time but it’s been a few years…

On the subject of cooking I am now a Food Network addict ( Tori! ) Last night I watched one of their new programs. It’s like ‘Biography’ but the call it ‘Chefography’. Last night was Sandra Lee from Semi-Homemade Cooking. What an amazing story. Just goes to show you that you never know what hardships every single person you encounter every day has gone through or is going through. What a great story she has and what an incredible person she is to give back so much. If you get time, you should check out that show.

I better get back to work. Should have officially started 16 minutes ago.
Hugs, Becka

Ok, I guess this entry wasn't so short.. LOL
OH! AND I NEED HELP WITH A QUESTION!! I AM USUALLY AN AVID TANNING BED WORSHIPPER (I KNOW, I KNOW... ) ANYWAYS, ABSOLUTELY NOT TANNING WITH EGGY INSIDE BUT WAS LOOKING INTO THAT MYSTIC TAN SPRAY JUST FOR THIS WEEKEND. IT LASTS ABOUT 3-7 DAYS. IT IS A DYE DERIVED FROM BEETS AND I CANNOT FIND ANY PRECAUTIONS AGAINST USING IT. IT IS ACTUALLY SUGGESTED FOR SOON TO BE MOMMIES... ON THE OTHER HAND, IF ANY OF YOU HAVE HEARD ANYTHING I WANT TO KNOW. THANKS ALL!!
