Ashton Thomas York

We named our boy! We have been tossing those names around for a while. We just like Ashton, and we also wanted a biblical name. We were thinking of Thomas and then we happened to have a Sunday school lesson all about him. It didn't hurt that I think Ashton Kutcher is hilarious and Thom Yorke is one of my favorite rockers (going to see him on May 8).

Bon Voyage Uncle Diddy

This weekend we sent Patrick off on his second summer tour, this year with Tim McGraw and then with John Mayer. Hope he meets some exciting people again although not much can top Mr. Belding of Bayside. We'll miss you P...soon to be Uncle Diddy!

We'll MissYou Goldens!

Last night we spent with our good friends Chris and Katy who are moving to Greenville this week. We're so sad to see them go but excited about having a new place to visit. We ate at Genki's which is our favorite Sushi/noodle bowl joint with them. Usually when we all go, we are seated on the left side of the restaurant which we feel is the "noncool side." We figure they look us over and think we don't qualify for the super hip side where the music usually is more techno (although last night they played a lot of Beatles.) Anyway, last night, as a farewell gift to Chris and Katy I guess, we stepped it up and were seated on the hip side! We made it-haha! We're going to miss you Goldens... and now who are we going to taste-test chocolate milks with? Oh yeah...I guess our son when he gets old enough. My cousins Heather and Matt have promised to step it up as our new Genkis partners and Sarah and Nick now have to fill in and be super GAC fans since Chris and Katy might as well have been season ticket holders last year! JK Spencers. Anyway, we love you Chris and Katy!

Pollen

Even poor Haley was sneezing on our walk today... which explains the half-eaten Zyrtec on the floor last week with her teeth marks all over the wrapper. The only problem with Zyrtec going over-the-counter is that I have fewer patients coming in for allergies. Haley seems to be grateful though.

I give detention for the stupidest things

I keep getting requests for pictures. This is one from last week at 21 weeks for my cousin Laura who I have not seen since Christmas! You cannot tell too much except my cheeks are getting really puffy. It doesn't help when drug reps bring Macaroni Grill for lunch and then a midafternoon Blizzard snack at work-two of my favorites!!! I will try to get some better pictures this weekend. I must be looking bigger though because my patients have started talking to me about it. Up until now, they would ask a nurse or check out person because they didn't want to offend me if I wasn't. Unfortunately my nausea has come back this week a little...will it ever go away? Wes' co-worker Jeanne said her nausea didn't go away until her son was 5. Thanks a lot Jeanne.
