Rafferty Barnes!

#1 Post by MarleysGh0st » Fri Mar 27, 2009 6:41 am

Looking at your new avatar, did I miss an announcement? :)

Or are you using the avatar as your announcement?

"22"? Meaning 22 weeks along?

I guess I never did make a post here. Yep, I'm 22 weeks or about five months pregnant! I'm due in late July.

We found out that its a boy. My husband already has plans for him to be a linebacker for the Tennessee Vols, his alma mater. He better have my height and his heft. I don't think it would work the other way around.

This is the first grandbaby for both sides of the family, so everybody is very excited. My mother told me to leave the trunk and the back seat of my car completely empty when I come to visit at Easter. I think she may have gone overboard with the baby clothes.

See the things you miss out on in chat Marley....? :P

Me and Kay even had a very large bet over whether it was going to be a boy or a girl, and I took her to the cleaners.....

Well, yeah! That's why I don't like all the good stuff being talked about there instead of here...



Congratulations, Rafferty! :D

I'm too shy to create my own post. I guess I should get over that here. Everybody else is doing it!

June 15? They told us the week I saw (including clem's episode) would air in late May. Are they inserting some special theme weeks before your episode or are they showing some repeats?

What Uly says is true and we are very good about following that rule.
We should have asked RB if she wanted us to start a thread for her. I didn't realize she was
a bit apprehensive about it. The avatar change was an excellent idea on her part. :)

ES is headed out there for scritches from Sprots and Fanny. Then he's gonna bring Fanny back with him to go to the baseball game with me in April. She dusted her old glove off and everything....

LB may wake up tomorrow evening and see several inches of snow on the ground. Thanks for sending the winter weather out this way, but you coulda waited a few more days so it'd be an official April snow....

You're very welcome, but I think ours was heading south and petered out by the time it got to Walsenburg.

I just got done shoveling snow drifts in the driveway and the sun is out and the sky is blue. I'm hoping it will melt off what patches of ice I wasn't able to chip off of the sidewalk with my $7.99 plastic snow shovel.....
Push it real good!

Matias kicked so much before he was born, we already had his career choice, kicking field goals for the Denver Broncos. Now that he is born, he looks exactly like his father, who is about 5-10 and very muscular, weighing in about 180. The NFL says that Elam is 5-11, 194, so I think there's hope for our boy.

Maybe he and RaffertyBarnesJr will be on the same NFL team someday!
