So, I am FREAKING OUT!!!!

My child, my baby, my mini-me, will be an official Kindergardner in T-minus 9 days! Are you kidding me? I've gotten to where every time I think about it, or talk about it, panic shoots up my spine. I am a nervous wreck. Just ask poor Wesley.....the tears just won't stop coming. I know, I came blame some of it on uncontrollable hormones, but wow, I'm freaking out. I have to head up to the school in a little bit to find out who her teacher is (Grace and I are hoping for Mr. Mike.....will explain more), sign her up to ride the bus to the YMCA in the afternoons, get her school supply list, sign up for the PTA. AAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHH! I don't know how I am going to survive her first day. Grace on the other hand is so excited she can't see straight. She really wants Mr. Mike, one of her counselors at camp to be her teacher. She has a small crush on him, and I must say, girl's got good taste. Mr. Mike is a cutie. (that's for you WEs.) I hope she loves it as much as she has loved camp this summer. She has grown up so much this summer, and while not all of it is good (she's been introduced to a bully and how catty girls can be) she has also matured so much. I'm still not ready though.

In other news. Baby Farmer is HUGE! He went from measuring just a hair ahead of me to measuring THREE WEEKS ahead. We may have a baby on my birthday (which, just as a reminder, is the 9th of October.) The three of us are so ready to meet him. He got another sweet gift this week. Wes's best friend Jennifer of "Jennifer and Alex" was in Birmingham, and came by to see WEs. She really came by to see the three of us, but I suck, and Grace and I went to C-town this weekend. She got Baby Farmer the cutest little shirts that say "Single", and "Ladies Man." He's going to be precious in them. WE love you JENN! I am so sorry that we missed you this weekend. Hopefully we will make it to Oxford before the baby gets here, if not soon after!

Wesley got to spend some quality time with my dad last week at SEC Media Days. He went on the day that Richt (spelling?), Nutt, Satan....oh, excuse me, Saban, and FULMER were there! You think he was a little excited?!?!? I mean, Grace and I went the day before, and the only person we saw was Tim Tebow. Just kidding. No Tebow for me. Dad said you would have thought Elvis had entered the building. Wes had a great time, and a much deserved day off work.

I am just working, and freaking out. I've signed up for a bit of overtime once school starts. I've got to have something to occupy my time. May as well get paid for it.

Oh, Meagan's ENGAGED!!!! Jonathan has now gotten orders from me to move closer. I can't have my baby Jake acrosss the country from me. Speaking of Jake, which I like to do, he's so handsome. I haven't seen him in what seems like forever, but I saw some pictures, and he's starting to look like a big boy now. So sad. But, we will be having a wedding some time next summer, so everyone get ready. Grace says she will only be in it if it is outside, so Dad , you better get to working. Speaking of dad and his garden. Those of you who have seen his garden know how beautiful it is. He puts alot of work into it. But, I must say, it is the prettiest I have EVER seen it this summer. I'm not kidding. And, he doesn't read this, so I'm not sucking up. It's truly georgous! If you're in the New Hope area, you should stop by and see it. You would enjoy it, my dad would LOVE you for it, and he would probably send you home with a vase of flowers, some homemade pepper sauce, some tomatoes, and a cantelope.

Ok.....I need to get productive. Hope all is well with everyone else!


OH---one more exciting thing! Sarah is an aunt!! I mean, she's been an "aunt" for nearly six years, but her sister gave birth to a beautiful baby boy last week, so she is an official aunt now! Congrats Sarah!
This is Grace at one week old, hard to believe she will be in "big School" next week!" I love you Grace!

Lately........

Life at our house has been rather low key the past week or so, and boy, have we enjoyed it. I worked all weekend, and it was rather stressful, so it has been nice to have things calm at the house. My mom, sister, and Jake came Sunday night, and it was so nice to have them. Jake is so much fun. He has got a ton of personality. And, he loves his Farmer family. Meagan and Jake flew to Oklahoma Monday morning, Grace convinced KK to stay all day Monday and play with her. They had a blast, and they cooked us dinner. We are so spoiled.
Oh.....thanks guys for all the sweet estimates for how big you think baby Farmer will be. Just remember, some of you will have kids one day. And believe me, I will be wishing ten pound babies on you too!!!! I go back to the doctor next week, so we'll see what she has to say.
Meanwhile, my camera is STILL broken...it stinks. I have got to have it fixed soon....first day of school is coming quickly! Hope everything is going well for everyone else!

Let's see who's really reading........

I found a game. It's going to let all my blog followers guess the weight of Baby Boy Farmer. Just a warning.....the doctor told us a couple of weeks ago to prepare for a linebacker. Seriously, she did. I'm not saying that to throw anyone off....it's just the truth. Just follow the link, and it will prompt you....




Here's a glimpse, not a flattering glimpse, of just how huge he is.
This is not a flattering picture of myself, it is of Jake, and I am standing swaybacked because my nephew weighs a ton! But....it is an idea.

Meanwhile, Grace is counting down the days until Kindergarten starts. She is so pumped! One month from today! Mom's going to come over soon, and we're all going to go back to school shopping. How fun! Grace is all ready a bit of a pain to shop with, so it will be nice to have my mom there for reinforcement. We will find out who her teacher is in a couple of weeks, I am so excited! And nervous!

Wes is working, and keeping busy with all of the projects I have for him. We painted the baby room. I took pictures, but my camera is currently being sent for repairs. It is so cute though....blue with stripes.

We went home last weekend for Jake's first birthday....enjoy the pictures!
In the water! Cake!
