September is here!



Well, it's practically here. Where did August go? Where did the summer weather go? I don't care, it's Fall weather here in Nebraska and I hope it's going to stay well into November. Ahh, September, it's my favorite month...and not just because it's my birthday month 29 on the 9th, it's kind of a golden birthday-9/9/09, so that means extra gifts, right? Right.


We are very busy this month. This weekend is the first Husker game of the season, so my mom and I are getting out of dodge to visit my sister (I am displeased to learn that my brother in law is renting the game, I can't escape it!). We're going to a pirate festival, and a carnival, and to this awesome little kitchen store in downtown Independence. So excited for family fun. My nephew told me I can sleep in his bed, but only if I wear underwear...um, deal? Erich has many options that weekend, we have an engagement party in York, going to the game, watching the game...who knows how crazy he'll get while I'm gone?!


The following weekend is another doubler...Erich's uncle is having a birthday party at a bar that I have been told I must experience in person, but our friends the Gonzales' are having a husker party the same day in Omaha...decisions, decisions....I've left it up to Erich because I can do that.


The next weekend is one of my close friend's bdays, International Talk Like A Pirate Day, a husker game, and a housewarming/birthday party for another friend in Omaha. Talk about busy. We're definitely doing the housewarming, and am hoping to meet the other friend for coffee at the market in the am. And I can talk like a pirate no matter where I am! Just need to find a pirate themed dish to take to the tailgate!


The weekend of the 26th is up in the air, but if all goes according to plan we'll be cheering Abbey on at the Weinerdog Races in Grand Island! If anything, I want to go and check it out, I think it sounds hilarious, and the videos I've seen on youtube back that theory up.


We also have stuff in between the weekends. The 11th is our friend Justin's 31st birthday, and we are having a "31 is the new 21" party down town, which will include a Kris Lager Band viewing at the Bourbon Theatre. We'll be in attendance there again on the 29th to see Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers. I am very excited for that show, I love them!


I'm already tired and the month hasn't even begun!

I know how you feel. September is going to be out of control! I mean, with all of the activities, when are we supposed to work & sleep? (Most importantly, SLEEP?!)

No worries either way - but I will have cheese dip and roll ups and veggie pizza and meatballs and beer and dips and chips and all sorts of fat kid heaven... just saying...

Groundhog's Day

So, welcome to 2013!  January was full of busy-ness in the Kant home, what with potty training in full effect, work being super busy and, well, I'm just really tired.  Plus we moved out office into the basement and let's face it, out of sight, out of mind.  And despite the ipad and iphone within arm's reach, I can't figure out how to post from the damned things, so there you have it.  Like I said, January went by in a blur, but luckily the groundog (and more importantly, my mom, whose birthday is also today) didn't see their shadows, so yay! 6 weeks until Spring.  Harper has begun potty training (well, has been in panties full time since late December) and is doing great with the potty piece of it.  The pooping? Not so much, and what sucks is that she really couldn't care less when she drops one in her panties...this mom, however, could do without shaking poop out of panties multiple times a week. Our only saving grace is that she goes to the same place ...

Good Bye First Trimester!

I can't believe that I will be 12 weeks prego next week, it has gone by so fast. It's hellped that I haven't have any sickness, which I am very grateful for. I've kind of have the opposite; I am hungry but nothing sounds appetizing, so as a result I've lost weight. I got a nice little lecture from my dr last week, so I've been trying to eat more, and I think after this weekend, I have to have put on at least 10 pounds! Friday night we had Applebees where we polished off mozzarella sticks, I had a steak and potatoes and veggies, all so tasty! Then today we had Hu Hot for lunch, and just had McDonalds for dinner. I didn't say it was healthy, but it was definitely fattening! I seem to be getting my energy back, there for a while all I wanted to do was sleep. I could still sleep all day, but today I noticed I wanted to do some chores, so I guess that's an improvement. I've also had some lower back pain, which seems to be worse when I sit, which ...

My ego is prego

Yup, it's official! I am about 9 weeks prego! We found out at the end of August, and have slowly been telling people as we go. I've been feeling good, no morning sickness. I am always tired and hungry, but nothing sound appetizing. Well, except for turkey sandwiches slathered with mayo and tomatoes. Yum. We've had two appointments, one for my initial test, and another where they took all my blood for testing (well, it felt like it was all my blood anyway). They also found that my heart murmur had gotten worse, so I had an echo done last week. Everything was normal, so we're thankful for that. The tech even tried to find the little fella, but no luck that day. I also found out I'm Rh Negative, which means that my antibodies will most likely attack the baby's red blood cells upon birth, so I have some shots in the bum to look forward to. Both of our family's are very excited, and have already started collecting items for baby KIP (I stole this from the...
