various thoughts...

I thought this was a cute picture of Kayla. Look at those legs- she is getting so tall! Last weekend was the first Pontilly festival in New Orleans. It was so cool to see people I haven't seen in years.

I'm so excited because the cool weather is coming- the hot, muggy summer is over!

Starting to make progress

This week I finally feel the need to get off my butt and start preparing for the baby's arrival. So far the only thing I have is a crib from my boss and one outfit I bought from JC Penney's. So yesterday I checked out ebay for some nursery decor and found the perfect bedding set. Best of all I was able to purchase 13 pcs for only $49.99- brand new! I can't wait to receive the package. A pic is below.


The funniest thing happened last Friday. Carl and I went to a wedding and of course I was ready to eat as soon as we got there. Well I was standing in the food line while Carl was getting drinks. A friend of mine told me the "good" food was in another room, so I got out of line and walked up to Carl (or so I thought), rubbed his back and told him "Bey, I heard the real food is on the next room". Well the guy turned around and was looking at me weird. The funniest part was that Carl was right behind him, looking at the whole thing, but never said a word. I was so embarrassed!

Playing Catch Up

Now, I need to get you all caught up to date. For those that don't know, I'm pregnant with #2. I know "by time", but things happen, and Carl and I are finally ready and able to continue growing our family.

We announced the news to family on my Birthday/ Father's Day June 15th.

Our due date is January 28th and we're extremely excited, especially Kayla. She rubs my tummy and kisses the baby goodnight.

Boy or Girl- Humm good question. We're going to wait- it makes the day even special!

Kayla is now 7 and is growing up fast. I'm amazed at the stuff she talks about- ooh and she is nosey (and will spill the beans). So be careful what you say around her! I guess she's a tween because she is into makeup, hair, clothes and shoes. She also loves HSM, Hannah Montana, Camp Rock and The Jonas Brothers.

That's all I have for now. Blog with ya later!

Just getting started...

Hello world!
Making my blogging debut and it's fun already. Since I have family and friends scattered across the country, I'm hoping to use this blog to keep in contact with everyone.
I'll post pics, videos and updates on what going on with the Francis clan.
So make sure you check out my blog and comment. And I'll try my hardest to keep it current.
