Yet another beautiful day!


Well, folks, hopefully you have found our blog by now, or will soon!

Yesterday must have been quite an eventful day because I did not even sit long enough to see if the baby was moving again! However, as the night progressed and things settled down, I started to notice some tiny little movements that were very reassuring. As for MY day.....it was quite the ordeal....

I spent yesterday finally getting my name changed on my liscense and looking for a small part time job. Unfortunately, my resume is on my computer that is in storage in fayetteville. That's ok though since I don't have THAT extensive of a resume to rewrite, a mission for today. As the night progressed, Kristin came home and we went for a pretty stinky meal at Chili's total disappointment for us both for some reason....haha. Anyway, we came home to engulf ourselves in the 2 hour showing of "American Idol".

The TRUE highlight of our evening came later, but hysteria came first. You see, neither Kristin nor I are big fans of bugs.....of ANY kind. Low and behold, out crawls a HUGE roach RIGHT behind the TV, thank goodness for DVR or we would have missed the next 30 minutes of the show due to screaming, running, crying, yelling, laughing, and on and on. Since Brian wasn't home, the game was on.....for the roach. First, we tried to get the dog to go eat it, but he was too concerned with Kristin and I going CRAZY and wouldn't even LOOK at the wall where the bug was. Then we tried hitting it with a shoe, but any time either of us got within two feet of it, we would run off screaming about how totally gross it is and that we "just can't do it". Kristin, mind you, a FABULOUS physician, was jumping up on the couch and pushing ME, the pregnant one towards this hideous HUGE roach. Needless to say, I wasn't ABOUT to let THAT go, so I too got on the couch and we just sat there screaming and laughing for about 10 minutes. FINALLY, Kristin got the bright idea of using a broom, BAD IDEA. She knocked the roach onto the floor not to be seen again for about an hour. During which time we resumed the TV show with our feet up on the couch and a watchful eye behind the TV as to catch it when it flew out to get us.

PHEW! WHAT a commotion it was. The GREAT thing is that Brian came home soon after with Blizzards from Dairy Queen for us all!! What a chocolately treat! BUT....soon, the evil roach's head appeared and Brian, our hero saved the day by squashing the creature with a LOUD crunch. GROSS! Anyway, that was our real excitement of the evening......a little hysteria in the Davis household goes a long way haha!

Later, when Matthew was able to call me, I was laying in bed and almost immediately when I began speaking with him, I was calm and comfortable enough to feel the baby REALLY moving. I mean I felt the baby move yesterday with more of a flutter type. Last night, however, the baby was quite literally kicking and moving all over my tummy! I started crying and Matthew was so thrilled that our baby "recognized when mommy was talking to him". How sweet, we actually got to experience one of the first kicks together while he was on the phone! Baby must know daddy or how daddy makes mommy feel! Anyway, Matthew is doing well, he says that he is getting bigger and buff and was very excited about this blog site to keep us all updated. He sends his love to everyone and misses everyone dearly.

Well, that was the excitement of yesterday......today I plan to clean up around here and get some things done that I have needed to for a while.

Again, please forward this link to anyone that I have missed which I know there are plenty out there! I am going to post a picture I received of Matthew in Afghanistan today.

Love to all!!
