Danielle will be the Pharmacy Resident at Hartzell's Pharmacy in Catasauqua, PA which is in the Lehigh Valley. We are very excited about this but we have a lot to do here in Durham before we get up there, like sell our home!!!<br /><br />The big news today is we celebrated Liam's first birthday today! We had a small party because as stated above we are trying to sell our home so we didn't want anything we couldn't clean up pretty fast. Liam had a blast and had his first taste of some cake.<br /><br />You can check out the video below and please, please don't sue us major record label for using this so appropriate music!<br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='506' height='420' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dydktVW9aUywPahqbOs2IFIIIsPJLLv-INLCqDmFJMH7ZmVHT4Ese1VNhMudk4LugmwvC5iKRGNaHm-LVgYPw' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"></div>The Shannonshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03957207394487296166noreply@blogger.com2Durham, NC, USA35.9940329 -78.89861935.8551449 -79.132078499999992 36.1329209 -78.6651595tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7952410574772589893.post-53485574695585555372010-02-12T19:45:00.005-05:002010-02-12T20:08:54.107-05:00I guess we should update this once and while huh?Well we really should update this thing but rather than do an all encompassing update but we really don't have the time for that right now, so here is an update from the past couple of days. Danielle has decided to pursue a Pharmacy Residency so that means that she has been applying and interviewing basically all over the country. She has already interviewed in Chicago and right now we are sitting in a hotel in Manhattan, celebrating Danielle's birthday as well has Bill's half-birthday and there is some kind of other holiday on Sunday. Now she's not interviewing for a position in New York, it's actually in the Lehigh Valley area in Pennsylvania, she interviewed on Thursday and we decided to make it a weekend and have some fun.<br /><br />Well mother nature decided to make it a very memorable road trip. Three of the cities we drove through had record snow falls and apparently in Philadelphia they had what is called "thunder snow" its basically a thunderstorm with snow instead of rain, we did not experience it but I can tell you there was a lot of snow and somehow we ended up on a closed interstate and when we discovered they closed the roads to Allentown we decided to call it a day and found a hotel and waited until the morning to drive the final hour and half.<br /><br />Tomorrow we are heading to DC and hopefully they have plowed the roads enough for us to have some fun there as well.<br /><br />Here are some pics of our trip so far.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk1TWl4TkbRZc0eagzIH9DdoyyU7hLNOIqE20zJhVpweoEL0JRpkPIVZ5XnN_RrgOzAbSP5rGIjtFiUsax8J51meFuv-zMrCqozWHWyDO3bBGmIoyQ8ZKZhy-KMjpzxHISE81SlFfBMEln/s1600-h/IMG_0521.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer;

On Sunday April 5th Danielle's water broke and we headed off to the hospital. Around 11pm that night we were admitted and Danielle started to go into labor. She was in labor all the day Monday and around 12:45am on Tuesday the doctors decided that this baby was not going to make it out naturally so they decided to go ahead with a C-Section.<br /><br />So after 28 hours of labor at 1:32AM on Tuesday April 7th Danielle and I heard the first cries our our little boy William Campbell Shannon, we weighed in at 7 lbs 8 oz, he was 20 1/4 inches long. Now we are here in one of the rooms just waiting to get out of here. They make us stay for 3 days because of the C-Section but I can assure you that Danielle is ready to go home and so am I, as is little Liam. He is going to go by Liam because Danielle doesn't want two bills in the home, and I really like the name Liam. For those of you who don't know Liam is the 9th William Shannon although it won't be on his birth certificate. The tradition is that we take our Mother's maiden name as our middle name. The first William Shannon was born in Ireland in 1775.<br /><br />We are looking forward to getting home tomorrow and posting more pictures of him in his room and us adjusting to the very new and excited time of our lives.<br />Until next time,<br />Mom and Dad!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixVQkAcjNTV_zpiVQEK_1EsFZC13hIGDhgDEq0LzV7LOg7as4syhXcL-Xt5byYSP9yHlU9jOe_QxgA0vBl5vZpVcGXaQSIsGUHKhZ6FcA_fGLPlmr8Ju-vwEa4OnQKeAUkmCnMRkUd-ipK/s1600-h/IMG_4005.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 76px; height: 114px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixVQkAcjNTV_zpiVQEK_1EsFZC13hIGDhgDEq0LzV7LOg7as4syhXcL-Xt5byYSP9yHlU9jOe_QxgA0vBl5vZpVcGXaQSIsGUHKhZ6FcA_fGLPlmr8Ju-vwEa4OnQKeAUkmCnMRkUd-ipK/s320/IMG_4005.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322764430586924258" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-DvcEkW0iqVVgaNUoPP1Jm4TjIEOJVss7mIqILjs45kreP3374xaEWmtWVW_V8k3am2_t2qvWUSUHou7t2KtidzKhq-xFWbt2YdeWaBDumWiU7NXSnhvj-CjJLpXujppM9EvaioY46KR1/s1600-h/DSC_0838.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 171px; height: 114px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-DvcEkW0iqVVgaNUoPP1Jm4TjIEOJVss7mIqILjs45kreP3374xaEWmtWVW_V8k3am2_t2qvWUSUHou7t2KtidzKhq-xFWbt2YdeWaBDumWiU7NXSnhvj-CjJLpXujppM9EvaioY46KR1/s320/DSC_0838.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322764440472462066" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLPmoHi2SVsZUdyS_Yy9p9EiK2sxKmpH12vomuRDNvl_PeCJOwMF7bfofUSxxDhP2NbkjjJyYFGCca90FAijEb0K2K2WQ3pierY-5amAw50CbKzJvBfyDjvCU52kYrxX_YNhcB7KNnR0rH/s1600-h/DSC_0810.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 170px; height: 114px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLPmoHi2SVsZUdyS_Yy9p9EiK2sxKmpH12vomuRDNvl_PeCJOwMF7bfofUSxxDhP2NbkjjJyYFGCca90FAijEb0K2K2WQ3pierY-5amAw50CbKzJvBfyDjvCU52kYrxX_YNhcB7KNnR0rH/s320/DSC_0810.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322764443066148498" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj40-4u8GjB7n8LIDiogq1A7rl1U8zjtBikuSGUoriNivPYoMrbLLjll43eOg5FBHtzJBcpZiIVVCB-yVoj-DyIhA3j87EePjW5xEQq8J-gjlbsN0-jLR97QeiD1yEGT3Zc_aMla3nLak0b/s1600-h/DSC_0805.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 418px; height: 276px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj40-4u8GjB7n8LIDiogq1A7rl1U8zjtBikuSGUoriNivPYoMrbLLjll43eOg5FBHtzJBcpZiIVVCB-yVoj-DyIhA3j87EePjW5xEQq8J-gjlbsN0-jLR97QeiD1yEGT3Zc_aMla3nLak0b/s320/DSC_0805.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322764434835142130" border="0" /></a>The Shannonshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03957207394487296166noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7952410574772589893.post-34522452365203299472009-03-18T19:24:00.007-04:002009-03-18T19:33:36.793-04:00The room is almost ready!We are very proud to present the baby's new room!

Two weeks ago Danielle had an appointment with her Doc and she said that she was worried about the baby's positioning. So she ordered another round of ultrasounds well, so on Wednesday Danielle went in and the Baby is right were it should be, actually the head is a little further down than it should be at this time. They also did some measurements and they are thinking the baby is weighing right around 6 lbs 5 oz. So Danielle still has 4 weeks to go (if she goes the full 40 weeks) and that means we could have a little chunk of a baby on our hands. So everything is just great! Here are the latest pics from the ultrasounds.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgy1Cg2CqchRg8FjesVb3E0N3hNfll-yfI4eC8YRVtKFKPUbf2HKR5v1NGIoaJWP7LszSzoImYNuHM_Zk1EA9HBZJtc2ANijON_z0YW28q136pqEhSk9aw2Xn2FK-4d6ILygeGAeTXuHVxM/s1600-h/BabyShannon1.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 170px; height: 127px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgy1Cg2CqchRg8FjesVb3E0N3hNfll-yfI4eC8YRVtKFKPUbf2HKR5v1NGIoaJWP7LszSzoImYNuHM_Zk1EA9HBZJtc2ANijON_z0YW28q136pqEhSk9aw2Xn2FK-4d6ILygeGAeTXuHVxM/s320/BabyShannon1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5310067738960646770" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP3DkIUgpr2Vt_SFr1m_s5LBkZ2Cbvjbe60SJd2P-CY2wfxIX7yk_lpV77VUOSdfK71c8wawpF0rvQ3bzPsWE35AN-9CAFzKF-y27UszyKHCtlf_hpNZ0lUpywIp37Dv2IdhriWZYh0pGO/s1600-h/babyshannon2.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 164px; height: 127px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP3DkIUgpr2Vt_SFr1m_s5LBkZ2Cbvjbe60SJd2P-CY2wfxIX7yk_lpV77VUOSdfK71c8wawpF0rvQ3bzPsWE35AN-9CAFzKF-y27UszyKHCtlf_hpNZ0lUpywIp37Dv2IdhriWZYh0pGO/s320/babyshannon2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5310067886341434674" border="0" /></a>The Shannonshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03957207394487296166noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7952410574772589893.post-28226570017979631782009-01-10T12:33:00.003-05:002009-01-10T12:43:34.290-05:00The CribToday Danielle entered the third trimester, we have entered the final stretch! Also today we put together the crib, it didn't take us that long at all. We just love the look and the sturdiness of the design.

It didn't start out that way. We got up on time, taught Sunday School, went to big Church, had a great lunch at Pei Wei. We went home, watched a little CSI and some football before we had to go to church for youth group. It was on our drive home when things got a little scary...well take that back it was right when we were pulling into our driveway when things got really surreal.<br /><br />Danielle and I were talking and I was driving our Mini-Cooper Clubman, as I pulled the car into our driveway, I stopped and asked Danielle, "Where is the Freestyle?" (Our other car is a 2007 Ford Freestyle). It should be parked on the street just after our townhome. But the Freestyle was no where to be seen. Both our hearts raced, I knew that the car should be there but it just wasn't, I looked up and down the street but it just wasn't there, I walked to where I parked it and although there was no sign of broken glass, but I was sure that my car just got stolen!<br /><br />I pulled out my cell and called 911, the kind dispatch person asked me all kinds of questions and I answered them all and they said an officer will be coming out shortly to help us out. I was pleased they were so helpful but my heart was still racing, I started to take a mental inventory of what was in the car, the only things of value I could come up with were the TomTom and my cordless drill. Then I got to thinking, what would the replacement value of my car be? Then I thought WHO IN THE WORLD WOULD WANT TO STEAL A FORD FREESTYLE!!! I guess if you need to transport 7 of your criminal friends around...Don't get me wrong I love that car I think its a great car for us but sexy to criminals this car is not!<br /><br />So I went inside and gathered my insurance information and other documents I could find before the officer showed up. That is when Danielle thought we should go to our neighbors and ask them if they saw anything...I knocked on a few doors and only one neighbor was home, she didn't see anything but she did ask me if "I had parked the wrong way on the street?" And I said as a matter of fact I did." Well she inormed me that she had gotten a few notes from a neighbor about parking the wrong way. That got me worried that maybe my car just got towed I thought there was a sign on one of our streets about towing and actually had the phone number so I started to walk down there and that is when my memory fully kicked in.<br /><br />On Saturday Danielle had to work all day so I asked her if she wanted to meet me half way and go to Red Robin for Dinner and then do some Christmas Shopping. We had a great meal and then we both got in the Clubman to do our shopping. But the thing is...we never went back to get the Freestyle. We left it there in front of the Red Robin all Saturday night and all of Sunday.<br /><br />I pulled out my phone again to call 911 and tried to explain again to the nice dispatch person that I need the searches pulled off for a 2007 Black and Gray Ford Freestyle. But as I started to tell the whole story the officer pulled up...I explained to him the whole story and I could see he was doing his best not to laugh right in my face, but he was also very kind, he asked me if "I had a way to get to my car?" and I said "yes I do" and he pulled away, I'm sure he was itching to get back to tell his cop buddies about the idiot he just ran into.<br /><br />As we pulled into the Red Robin, and I saw my car I thought to myself...I know that husbands gain sympathy weight, and I know that sometimes when women are pregnant they can have more airhead moments that usual...but does that mean men can have sympathy airhead moments as well?!?

The baby now weighs 1 lbs 3 oz. We aren't sure if the ultrasound tech could see the gender or not because she had us close our eyes when they were taking pictures in the bathing suit area. Anyways we hope you enjoy the pictures and feel free to comment!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiy8nSLMB7jnVX_e1yDcQlTJh0-knJUzftolLeZEmug-vNINLuQHUW9psFtb4rwWw_YBzid-TZLZh4nxRhuQqnkdBwJZKy1R0Wsbzxn7cSDMiTD6PQoXV4RxAA4sZhGTzxCmvl_pmAqaug/s1600-h/SHA_4.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 195px; height: 146px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiy8nSLMB7jnVX_e1yDcQlTJh0-knJUzftolLeZEmug-vNINLuQHUW9psFtb4rwWw_YBzid-TZLZh4nxRhuQqnkdBwJZKy1R0Wsbzxn7cSDMiTD6PQoXV4RxAA4sZhGTzxCmvl_pmAqaug/s320/SHA_4.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5275586274688049554" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieCN-B7TXk-UBpntzfA4uGRJzkMKbTT4Zntp7HAygE6ATbeJOnvxhDi1VXI4_idKM-MQZA9zL3M1SSwz40hbTxd72Hm1FvoU0RuAem0hJ91nM7Bs0Ee9bTgztHFW6VtmKHn105ygIvX42l/s1600-h/SHA_5.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 196px; height: 147px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieCN-B7TXk-UBpntzfA4uGRJzkMKbTT4Zntp7HAygE6ATbeJOnvxhDi1VXI4_idKM-MQZA9zL3M1SSwz40hbTxd72Hm1FvoU0RuAem0hJ91nM7Bs0Ee9bTgztHFW6VtmKHn105ygIvX42l/s320/SHA_5.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5275586270676426130" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikg7DP68jYszfQSuhA-_NvE4Bo7mfmmFjGN8xnM8jKvMsP361g56wOpl-EInhTu5MpZKBF_kJ9kldlb6EK8bTsljxUDeZL6Na74Dwn5Q3UHl_yLIb9EscPQs7slX2lMAPr4aofLDswn2FN/s1600-h/SHA_6.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 194px; height: 145px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikg7DP68jYszfQSuhA-_NvE4Bo7mfmmFjGN8xnM8jKvMsP361g56wOpl-EInhTu5MpZKBF_kJ9kldlb6EK8bTsljxUDeZL6Na74Dwn5Q3UHl_yLIb9EscPQs7slX2lMAPr4aofLDswn2FN/s320/SHA_6.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5275586282737377202" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7wKhPRvjQifJcQnWdSMe7y5zT6ANhPLk152H7xDZAX0ggcJtTc0Cx88UQ7HRTwLtyrPofQWKxoILfViq8DrTKMd9A0g-Am4931VPF4l-E4Gn21HtTQWecA3pEJlOb1YyMIcKFZl2Ok7-C/s1600-h/SHA_1.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 191px; height: 144px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7wKhPRvjQifJcQnWdSMe7y5zT6ANhPLk152H7xDZAX0ggcJtTc0Cx88UQ7HRTwLtyrPofQWKxoILfViq8DrTKMd9A0g-Am4931VPF4l-E4Gn21HtTQWecA3pEJlOb1YyMIcKFZl2Ok7-C/s320/SHA_1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5275586263499006594" border="0" /></a>The Shannonshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03957207394487296166noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7952410574772589893.post-23968047118986100052008-11-30T13:42:00.006-05:002008-11-30T14:44:51.706-05:00Acapulco for Thanksgiving<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-v7V8wd7CJbSk5YqSv7XX8p_09o11PbHk_VGh5SvXRVbT5sD5kS8DRdRykdVFYggIUW9fFOiFextnykt0KL52fYD-Lcfxk61eKpDTrw0h6UHP4XH6jcNo5wAo6nes9UzCZVfGswvdL2Nl/s1600-h/view+from+our+room+4.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 578px; height: 139px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-v7V8wd7CJbSk5YqSv7XX8p_09o11PbHk_VGh5SvXRVbT5sD5kS8DRdRykdVFYggIUW9fFOiFextnykt0KL52fYD-Lcfxk61eKpDTrw0h6UHP4XH6jcNo5wAo6nes9UzCZVfGswvdL2Nl/s320/view+from+our+room+4.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274535952418071698" border="0" /></a><br />Bill's parents were so wonderful to take us down to Acapulco for Thanksgiving this year along with the rest of the Shannon Family: Del (Bill's older brother), Beth, Alex, and Meghan; Christy (Bill's younger sister), Tim, Reagan, and Lincoln. It was so good the see the nieces and nephews, and how much they've grown- especially Alex and Meghan who are both teens now! It was good to spend sometime with the sisters and brothers-in-law as well. They were so wonderful and we had a little baby shower down there for the new baby Shannon. I'm finally starting to look really pregnant now (as you'll see in the pictures). The food was wonderful and it was so nice to have a lot of sleep time and relaxation. The only decision we had to make were what we were going to eat and whether we were going to the beach or pool.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuS1wph0vDwSeii4mH3S7akcLVNB2JTJKEnRWHk0G7L9jfVEW54uXH_WqwnevVEYlmfcPLGKGFHtR52NgvgIRlMNSTpTF7LOW7mYXM3xAx5kHyXwJG9sOWEHLMlD3A5QvCRO5OsnxVfJvY/s1600-h/IMG_3762.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer;

I thought were were just going to watch them be released, but when we got to the beach there was a female turtle laying her eggs. Then after she was done she turned to the ocean and headed out. The sea turtle conservation people then go and dig up the eggs, put them in an incubation hut. When they hatch they are put into tanks and eventually released into the ocean. Since there were only about 20 people on the beach for this, they let us each take a baby sea turtle in our hands and we all stood in a line facing the ocean and released the turtles. We spent a good hour herding the turtles in the right direction because they get confused with the resort lights. I think the adults had just as much fun as the kids.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkZ9a0-vfCJrITvtKbBAHz5crBkvoApgHrIQTA8xlm-XXmfigN_gmI524MythrZAxmCNInIgJpbNxM4jtYkCUFVzbR7uYXn7_6JR_9lObdYCYzUvz3oJMo_q90Wfu4uVpiPJk1-Jxsiz3G/s1600-h/IMG_5017.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 222px; height: 145px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkZ9a0-vfCJrITvtKbBAHz5crBkvoApgHrIQTA8xlm-XXmfigN_gmI524MythrZAxmCNInIgJpbNxM4jtYkCUFVzbR7uYXn7_6JR_9lObdYCYzUvz3oJMo_q90Wfu4uVpiPJk1-Jxsiz3G/s320/IMG_5017.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274534324050634818" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdqhWTJqFSWA-N2je137Irp8ZzwC9fq73g6iQpOnpbuajk3GKSWsVqesYInDAdccuY8yLb4JTfJwNO4Kuwi07m0SsPyyrZ8Ljm-2SflQfX-MIvxNbcYKpgbIqhrfoCJernHKIN2VHjULfk/s1600-h/IMG_5022.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 219px; height: 143px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdqhWTJqFSWA-N2je137Irp8ZzwC9fq73g6iQpOnpbuajk3GKSWsVqesYInDAdccuY8yLb4JTfJwNO4Kuwi07m0SsPyyrZ8Ljm-2SflQfX-MIvxNbcYKpgbIqhrfoCJernHKIN2VHjULfk/s320/IMG_5022.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274534342278897218" border="0" /></a><br /><br />We also got the opportunity to go into downtown Acapulco and do some shopping and see the famous cliff divers. We ate dinner at this restaurant called La Pearla that is built into the cliff side and every table has a view of the cliff divers. They were diving from 80-115 ft up and had to wait for the waves to bring the water up to at least 13 ft before they could jump. It was amazing.

I know a lot has been said on both sides of this election but let us not forget that no matter who gets elected today, we should honor and respect them as our leaders. Its kinda Biblical you know?!<br /><br />Well in light of the election I give you this little gem from our friends the Simpson Family:<br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/1aBaX9GPSaQ&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/1aBaX9GPSaQ&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>The Shannonshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03957207394487296166noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7952410574772589893.post-50962830937039424412008-10-14T15:00:00.004-04:002008-10-14T15:19:39.127-04:00Another Dr. Appointment TodayDanielle had her monthly Dr. Appointment today. Everything is just great, the Doctor today pulled out the Doppler to hear the heartbeat and it was right in normal range and the doc said it sounded really strong. Now according to Bill's Mother there is an old wives tale about the Baby's heart rate and the gender of the Baby. If you didn't know there are family members on both sides that aren't very happy about us not finding out the Baby's gender until its born. The old wives tale goes like this, if the Baby's heart rate is above 140 you are having a girl if your Baby's heart rate is below 140 you are having a boy...well guess where our Baby's heart rate was...you guessed it 140 on the nose. So even if you believe that stuff (which by the way is totally unproven) our Baby isn't giving anything away.<br /><br />Not much else to report over here, we are just trucking along.<br /><br />And because no post should be without picture, here is one from a wedding in Seattle that we went out to recently. That is our Brother-in-law Tim and his son Lincoln, instead of a wedding cake they had cupcakes, Lincoln was in heaven!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR-1XML5ZZcjrJ42fFbc_NqDdDNoQgZErqCbkU0eYMGhLUHjmVi18IotHPlzTecWN8nuK9Bj9F1TxWbplroAf3slpHzjfNPQeOBXcVWiCrVKr9Av-chQ4TZ2hdHKZKn72nzQhCFKe11yso/s1600-h/Lincoln+vs+cupcake.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 421px; height: 315px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR-1XML5ZZcjrJ42fFbc_NqDdDNoQgZErqCbkU0eYMGhLUHjmVi18IotHPlzTecWN8nuK9Bj9F1TxWbplroAf3slpHzjfNPQeOBXcVWiCrVKr9Av-chQ4TZ2hdHKZKn72nzQhCFKe11yso/s320/Lincoln+vs+cupcake.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5257090717498446290" border="0" /></a>The Shannonshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03957207394487296166noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7952410574772589893.post-88174763665826809822008-09-23T16:53:00.003-04:002008-09-23T17:01:43.039-04:00Our Little BeanToday we went for our first ultrasound.

The show was at <a href="http://www.carolinaperformingarts.org/aboutus/memorial.aspx">Memorial Hall</a> at UNC Chapel Hill. The concert was partially a benefit for <a href="http://www.operationsmile.org/">Operation Smile</a> but it was also an event for a new series of concerts put on by myspace called <a href="http://www.myspace.com/fronttoback">front to back</a>. The band was given the choice to play any of their albums front to back, they decided on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Unauthorized_Biography_of_Reinhold_Messner">"The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner"</a> an interesting choice seeing how it was the least successful album they put out and ultimatley led to their breaking up.<br /><br />There were a couple of highlights for me (Bill). <ul><li>One was the people watching, now remember this show was on the UNC campus and 600 of the 1600 tickets were allotted for the students. As I sat there before the show I leaned over to Danielle and told her "This album came out in 1999, so if there are any freshmen here they were like 9 when this album came out and there is no way they know all these songs" and I tell you the truth, once "Narcolepsy" started I saw two girls lean over to each shrug their shoulders and say to each other "I don't know this song" that continued all the way until "Army" everyone went nuts during that song. Then soon after that they all went back to a confused look and soon broke out their cell phones and started texting. I found it all to funny and sad that their were some people who bought airline tickets and traveled thousands of miles for this concert while others could care less and were wondering when he was going to play his solo stuff.</li><li>Another great moment was "Your Most Valuable Possession" I was wondering how they would do this song. The vocals of this song are a voicemail recording of Ben's Dad saying some random thoughts early in the morning before he really wakes up. Well it was very cool that Ben's Dad actually came out and read what he had said that morning. It was really fun.</li><li>After the band had finished "Lullabye" and the crowd went nuts, I was thinking is that really it? Are they just going to play the album and walk away? Well obviously the answer was no, they came back out and played 7 more songs from their other alubms, and that left those girls even in front of us even more confused. That was until they played thier last song of night "Song for the Dumped" oh how the crowd went crazy.</li><li>All in all the biggest highlight from last night was Danielle leaning over to me and telling me the baby was doing backflips in her belly. I don't know if it had to do with the music or not but I like to think our kids gonna be a fan of Ben Folds Five.</li></ul>It was a very special night and we had a blast. In October the show will be on myspace check the <a href="http://www.myspace.com/fronttoback">f</a><a href="http://www.myspace.com/fronttoback">ront to back site</a> and I 'm sure they will have more details.<br />Here is a pic from the show, they wouldn't let us bring in real cameras so I only had my cell so its not that great but its the best I could do.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6sUz9oVTTJHqK23d6ndlQKLDdgNWkOK6BOP4GMPybZ_v6LVYeeV7XOPuBrtIn44mhv6vr-EWk30u-GmBfWAPKk29HCdwiU7mT-LgAW26RjtUEHcqJRGFxs77g-VrK45LLHj7bPhnx6jQ5/s1600-h/IMAGE_010.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 545px; height: 405px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6sUz9oVTTJHqK23d6ndlQKLDdgNWkOK6BOP4GMPybZ_v6LVYeeV7XOPuBrtIn44mhv6vr-EWk30u-GmBfWAPKk29HCdwiU7mT-LgAW26RjtUEHcqJRGFxs77g-VrK45LLHj7bPhnx6jQ5/s320/IMAGE_010.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5247719871589601634" border="0" /></a><br /><br />In other news Danielle goes in for her first ultrasound on Tuesday so hopefully we will have some pics to post then.<br />Peace out,<br />Bill<br /><br /><br />Now you can watch the video!
