Happy Birthday to Devin Olson, my brother-in-beer! Hope that you have a great day and may God grant you many happy years!

My nephew, Jim Vote, discovered something that will truly affect a ballot proposal here in Michigan. Take a look at it here. Great job Jim!

the coolest thing to see is when you are just sitting and all of a sudden your belly is doing the wave. when the baby moves it is like a ripple affect. It just amazes me. Not only am I feeling this baby but everyone else can see him move.
thanks for listening to me go on.
take care,
Jen

…Baby BOY (aka ‘TBA’) Bilyk! Here are some ultrasound pictures taken this morning.

We just found out that we’re having a boy! We’ve got a lot of shopping to do for boy clothes now, but it’s worth having a balanced male/female ratio in the Pridelands!

Wow! I was getting Kiara and myself ready to finally go to bed.  It is pouring outside and has been raining hard all night.  I opened the family room doors to see how high the water was in our back yard.  As I closed the doors and was ready to leave the room I notice out of the side of my eye something hopping.  I thought great its a cricket and I am not going to be able to sleep.  I turned on the lights and it is a very tiny frog.  It was the size of my vitamins.  It was trying to get back outside so I got a cup and helped outside.  I love frogs but not in my family room on my floor!

I love Skype, but am surprised that it’s not already on my calendar (I’m such a bad friend)…

According to his profile, today is Bruce Elgort‘s birthday! Happy Birthday Bruce… and many more!

Make sure you stop by his blog or send him a Tweet and wish him a happy birthday!

UPDATE: What a great day for birthdays! I just found out that it’s Mikkel Heisterberg‘s birthday as well. Go wish Mikkel a happy birthday via his blog or Twitter also!

Wow Kiara’s eye is very swollen and we  will be seeing a doctor tomorrow.  It is bigger today than yesterday. It almost looks as if  she has a black eye.

Hi everyone is there any suggestions you can send to me.  Kiara had a bug bite on the side of her face by her eye before she went to sleep.  She woke up with her eye swollen and the bite is swollen.  I gave her allergy medication but don’t know what else might help.  Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks to everyone.
I think I just have a very bruised toe. I am able to walk on my foot without any pain. I am just glad it is summer. I can wear my flip flops and not have to worry about my toes being pushed together. I am also glad that Ray lets me stay home and be with Kiara. I don’t have to worry about shoes in the house.
His favorite thing to say (bare foot and pregnant) that is what I am most of the time since I am home a lot.

I  was walking into our family room and hit my foot on the corner of the couch and heard a big crack.  The two toes next to the big one are in lots of pain and being pregnant I can only take tylenol.  I can move them but it is painful and they are swelling.  Putting ice on it only makes them throb more.  Wow I feel like a little kid  complaining.  I am going to try to put a pillow under it and try to sleep.  Any advise is welcomed.
Take care and God bless,
Jen
