We recently had my husband's 14 year old brother come and stay with us for a week (a yearly tradition) and we did a lot of fun activities including canoeing, rented a yurt at the beach and went down the Rogue on a jet boat. It was all a lot of fun. Here is a picture of KC, Me and Jim in the front row on the jet boat.

Here is another picture taken last night. We had a little bbq/dinner party at the bed and Breakfast where I work. The girl in the middle has been our help for the summer but is leaving next week so she can have her baby, and the girl on the right is the girl that has helped out in the garden for the past 4 or 5 summers. Every year the owners of the B&B try to take us out for lunch or do something special for their help. We played a fun game called Bacchi (spelling?) out on the lawn.

Here is a picture of a yurt. They are putting them in almost all campgrounds to rent. I think they are pretty nifty. They sleep 5 and have nice padded mattresses. They also come with a heater, plug ins and a fold down futon inside. There are 2 local yurt manufacturers.

All I can keep saying is WOW WOW WOW. T-girl, you are darling! You look so tiny in that boat, and your new avatar was worth waiting for. Seriously big congrads to you. You're glowing. Hey, pregnancies come in threes, and there are two other Band babies on the way... why are you glowing?? HAHAH, JUST KIDDING.

Here is a picture of my brother and I. He had just graduated in June and we all went to a local park for some family pictures.

Aren't yurts the coolest... If you do a search for Oregon yurts you will get one of the manufacturer websites. They actually make them to live in too!!! I really really wanted to put one on our grants pass property at one point. The problem is the financing since it isn't like the traditional house but who knows??? Maybe someday... I've seen them fixed up magnificently.

Thanks for all your cute sweet comments. About the time I think about getting off of birth control and little ones, my husband does something absolutely childish and I rethink the prospects of children with him...LOL.

What do you know??? I have found two more to add to the collection. This one is the bed and Breakfast that I work at. I've been there 7 or 8 years. They are finally closing this October but I'll still remain as their regular housekeeper.

OOPS... Actually this is a view from one of the rooms overlooking the lovely McKenzie river. The next pic will be the front of the bed and breakfast

I love all the pictures.

If your waiting for your hubby to stop doing childish things before you have kids,

you can forget every having kids. I've been married 21 years, have 2 children,

1 super grandchild. My hubby is still the biggest baby I know, and don't look for him to change. lolol

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.
