Car Love

Today we got to Sioux Falls, SD. Met up with some friends for dinner and then ended up going to Scarlet O'hares (strip club LOL). Couldn't get pictures of THAT of course LOL. But here is one of the future groom "loving" on a pimp car! :D

Taco John's

THIS is what a Taco John's is people! LOL Apparently it started in WY and so thats why I can't find even ONE in the state of IL! But there was one on the way to South Dakota--in MN! (there are tons in SD). Its MUCH better then Taco Bell!

Ultrasound #2

Today we got our anatomy ultrasound done (nope we didn't cave to find out the sex--still team green). Baby is measuring one week ahead of schedule, also here is my most resent bump picture!

Kindle 2

No more books! I FINALLY got my Kindle 2 Reader!!!!! If you have no idea what I'm taking about-----its a little electronic book reader. It hold about 1,500 books in this thing (so it WAY cuts down on my weight of luggage!). And the screen is JUST like a book---I'm not kidding! So far I love it!
Look what size it is...it fits in my purse....(i put a CD next to it so you have a reference)

CUPCAKES

Amy has be TORMENTING me with her cupcake photos in her 365 blog---well today I finally got some!

My first Baby book

Hit up Borders today and we got our first baby book. Here is to hoping we don't mess up the first kid----well to bad at least! LOL
Its "The Baby Book" By Dr. Sears...LOVE IT so far--he really agrees with my philosophies on stuff!

American Candy!!!

Ok so my Biggest craving while pregnant (for something I couldn't find) was Sour patch kids. Well today we hit Target up and I stocked up on them (got like 4 bags!) and also some other candies (the peanut butter cups were from my storage unit).

With this ring...

So I don't travel with my engagement ring on because I think it kind of yells "steal me". LOL So as soon as we get back to the states again I get to break out the old girl and put her back on. Do you know what it looks like? Nope---wanna see......

Back in Des Plaines--but lets see more Hawaii!

We landed about 6am this morning back in IL--where its about 50 degrees! :(
So no new photos for today---however here a few of me and troy during the last week...

We saw more but I have a 5 picture limit! LOL

Waikiki Beach (day #2 babymoon)

Today we just hung out on Waikiki Beach all day. Troy rented a surf board for the day, I didn't surf since its on my not to do list :( But it was nice to watch him! I did do some body surfing and swimming and plenty of tanning time in though....so relaxing!

We left manila, Philippines at 8:20am on Tue morning, got to Tokyo, Japan and sat for a 6 hr layover *icky* and then left and Landed in Honolulu, Hawaii at 8:00am tue morning. yep we landed 20 min before we left!!!!! It makes for a long day.

Options on the toilet at the Tokyo airport.
Check out the second to bottom square---its says no lighters can be CHECKED in luggage, only carried on! LOL we can't have liquids but we CAN have a lighter! We then decided to skip the sleep once we hit hawaii and just have a great day in honolulu--so we headed out to Pearl Harbor.
