And again...with Both banners...this is almost as good as the Miller Light Rusty Wallace car fiasco.

Welcome to the HSBC Fall Festival Website...Sponsored by Vickies. For all of you who missed it...this was the scene about every ten clicks...before it was taken down.

I havent kept you updated lately about Jen...so here goes...Notice that she is starting to show...(her belly that is)
This Pregnant Body

Jen Jeppsen, sufficient rest is one of the most important components of a healthy pregnancy. Pregnancy-related insomnia may start to affect your daily routine, but there are things you can do to help. Make sure you always go to the bathroom before you go to bed so you won't be awakened in the middle of the night. Try using pillows in different places under your chest, abdomen or between your knees. Find an arrangement that is most comfortable for you. Take a warm bath or read before bed to relax you further.

There are some simple stretches and exercises that can help relieve some muscle and ligament pain and pressure that may be disrupting your sleep.

This week's topic: Bleeding gums


Your Baby

Your baby weights about 5.25 ounces and is 5-1/2 inches long from crown to rump, or about the size of a pickle.

If you notice your belly making regular, jerky movements, don't panic - your baby has the hiccups! The hiccups are harmless for baby but can be annoying for you if they last for a long period of time.

Your baby's digestive system is starting to produce meconium, its first fecal matter. Some new moms are scared at the sight of it and think something must be wrong with their baby.

Now this is funny...I don't care who you are....

Now...getting back to one of our original tasks here at Hillenblog. I can't wait to see the third installment from the pairing that brought us these two cuties....I wonder how the pregnancy is progressing?

Neck Wound...I think that she must have "Nicked her Jugglar"

Moo Moo Buckaroo!

As to Missy's suggestion...here goes. This is where I have been spending the bulk of my time lately. I wish I had a before photo...but I don't. Through the hard work of many people the "Plant" is starting to look up...

Yes...folks that IS what you think it is...Peebs is just sitting there...and allowing someone to pile Trash onto the tops of the "new" lockers at DMP. Disapointing!

and this was what Barrett had carved while i was gone...go Longhorns!...Nice Job Barrett!

so...my buddy scotty pulls the "trigger" on a smoker on ebay...and we all (irog, and GW) road trip it to Mt Pleasant, Texas to pick it up...800 miles and 14 hours of bustin on basically everyone who was not in the car. Also we had some dan good BBQ at Bodacious Bar-B-Q...That is Scott's Smoker in the foreground.

Ever notice how a dating couple starts to dress alike...did you know that they almost drive the same car...in the same color too.

And...if you look closely you can see the tread marks from where I ran over OD's foot with the "get away car"...oops. Bonus points for having her toenails polished...truly an important sign for any of you guys out there that are paying attention...and old enough to notice girls (you know who you are)

...Who is that? and how does she keep her shoes so white?

Ta Da!!!! I will be honest with you bloggers...I was a bit disapointed in the comments on my last few posts...I realize i have been bloggus interuptus...but come on now...that was a pretty good prank on the owner of the White BMW...especially on the spur fo the moment.
