I got a bit behind on blogging and had some things I wanted to remember, so here is a hodge-podge of things I wanted to include...
My family was all out here for Aaron's burial (more on that to come- but again, I need to get pictures from Lisa/Dad). Anyway, we spent a few hours watching Ashlynn while everyone went and took care of paper-signing and burial stuff at the cemetery. We needed to get the girl outside, but it was pretty much the hottest day of my entire life, so we went to the park and I sat far away in the shade, stuck my zoom lens on the camera, and took some pics while Ash dragged Ryan around the park. She loves her Uncle Ryan and continually asks for him.

My whole family got to come down from Cleveland for an evening, and we showed them our new house and neighborhood, went out to eat, went shopping for some more baby clothes, and then came home for dessert. My parents headed back up to Cleveland and Lisa, Brandon, and Ash stayed here for a couple of nights. We got to hang out, watch movies, go swimming, etc. We had more outside plans but it was in the hundreds, plus crazy humidity, which made us happy to stay inside and enjoy the air conditioning. :)
Also, our house is really coming along! It should be done on August 18th, and we should close on the 26th. It will be fully landscaped (with grass too- thankfully!) and we get an extra tree in our yard since it's a corner yard. I'm beyond excited to get out of this apartment and away from the white-trash neighbors.
On a pregnancy note, I walked into the grocery store a couple weeks ago and the Doritos were on sale. All of a sudden I HAD to have Doritos and NOW! So I bought them and ate half the bag by myself as soon as I got home. Then the next day after work, I finished them off. Junk food has tasted completely awful this entire pregnancy and so I justified my bad eating decisions those days with the fact that I haven't been eating bad most of this pregnancy. That's allowed, right? Needless to say, I have not bought Doritos since then, because I know what would happen if I did! Just look at these nasty "Dorito-fingers." ha! That's shows some serious dedication to Dorito-eating. (I can't believe I posted this picture).
Lastly, we went to King's Island with Ryan's work yesterday. It was dang hot that day and crazy humidty (that's pretty much been the theme of weather around here the last few weeks). Although we didn't ride a single ride- well, besides the train around the park (I couldn't ride anything and Ryan didn't feel like it), we had passes for free unlimited drinks the whole day, and a free big lunch at the company pavilion for the day. We left just when the little storm was getting there. Even though we didn't ride rides, we still had a good time and it was fun to just go somewhere else for a while.

The house is looking fab, your fingers kind of drab, there's something I didn't know, your whole family went to O-hio! (Specifically your hometown for the burial or what?)
i am cracking up at your cheesy fingers. i totally did the same thing when i was pregnant with owen, except mine were cool ranch. love it!
It's so nice to see all these great pictures of you and Ryan with both families. And, so much has happened in your life lately, it was really good to be caught up from all your blogging. Hope all is well...we are finally finding some floor space in our new place. Thanks for all the fun pictures you posted!
