Time for a new blog

Okay, so I enjoy reading people’s blogs and get somewhat frustrated when they haven’t updated in awhile so I’ve been racking my brain trying to figure out what to blog about since it’s been a week since my last post…it’s been slow in the Paquette household these days-(which is a GOOD thing and I’m not complaining!)

Anyways! I was looking through my old yearbooks and came across my 6th grade one from 1991. In my yearbook we had a ‘Most Likely to Be:’ section and in my class of 46 kids, I was voted

Most likely to:

be President of the USA

be a Nobel Prize winner

live to be 100

be an inventor

Hmmm…not quite sure what that says about me but I think the overall theme is that I was a dork. 😉 Now I will humble myself and share my 6th grade picture with you. (Yes, that is a home perm).

Surprise (Chocolate) Shower!!

Last week James told me that we had an ‘accounting dinner’ at Olive Garden on Wednesday night.  I thought this was kinda strange being that a big company like Dell would choose Olive Garden, (no offense to this delicious Italian restaurant which I love!), to host a company dinner but was like oh well-it gave me a reason to shower and put on decent clothes (neither which I do these days b/c I’m 36 weeks pregnant and have 2 kids under 4!)  So, you can imagine my delight when my good friends, Jen and Leslie, surprised me by taking me to Olive Garden instead of the supposed company dinner to celebrate Asher’s upcoming arrival.  I was touched and thought nothing of it when they said afterward we were meeting at Angela’s house for dessert and to open a present for me.  Well….when we got to Angela’s house there were 20 people all waiting for me to celebrate Asher!  There was chocolate everything b/c my friends know me so well.  So, thank you Jen, Leslie, Angela, Diana, and Yuna!  You truly made me feel very loved and even more excited for Asher’s arrival!  (And James did a great job lying to me too-I truly was surprised!)

32 weeks…

So I’m 8 months pregnant now…it’s getting really hard being soooooo BIG (30 lbs bigger!!) and taking care of the girls!  But I am blessed to have an amazing husband who is helping in any way he can, (and will pose for sentimental pictures with his wife b/c he knows how much it means to her.)  Love you James (and baby Asher who we can’t wait to meet!)

Our happenings

So here’s some recent pics of our happenings.

Julie 6 months pregnant

James took Rilyn on her first father/daughter date (to Gattiland) and he brought her flowers!

Ella had her first day of Mother’s Day Out today which means mommy has 2 days a week free to get ready for Asher’s arrival!!!!!  Praise God!  And thank you James for letting mommy have some ‘me time!’
