We are still alive....

Just want to say first that, yes, we are all still living! I had such good intentions when I started this blog and I've just totally been slacking. Most of it is due to the fact that I have the WORST computer known to man. I don't know what the problem is, it's not even that old, just one day it was working fine and the next day it was really crappy. I really think the kids did something to it...Anna especially likes to play with the keys and I think she typed in something crazy that messed my whole system up. Anyway, I think I've figured out how to manipulate it so that I can get it to cooperate for the time being.

So let me update on our summer...
Pretty much boring and uneventful for the first half. Then in the end of July we took our annual beach trip. This year we rented a beach house in Gulf Shores for a week and met Chris and Erin (bro-in-law and wife) and Jason, Carolyn, and Blayde (Joe's unofficial bro and his fam). We had a really good time...the kids played great together, Joe and I celebrated our 8th anniversary, and we got some good family photos on the beach (which we took ourselves because we are WAY too cheap to pay a professional!).
This is my fave...

The whole Rodriguez family...

The last few days of the trip I was not feeling well and turns out...We're having another baby! That's right folks...3 babies in 5 years. We were TOTALLY suprised, but are pretty excited now. Due date is March 27th (which is just 4 days before Anna's 3rd birthday). I have felt worse this time than with both my other pregnancies...I just feel really gross all day...but hopefully I should start feeling better in another week or two as I get out of the first trimester.

The only other eventful thing we've done is go to the first Auburn game last weekend. It was a night game (which I've never done) and since it was against a smaller school (LA-Monroe) we thought it would be a good one to take the kids to. It was soooo hot until the sun went down and it was PACKED!!! Not exactly what we were thinking of when we made our plans. But the kids were really awesome. We didn't go to any games last year (the kids and I...Joe went to several) so it was really exciting for them and it was fun for us to see them get into it. All I know is that we will NOT being going to anymore games for a while...I do not want to get that hot again anytime soon!!!
