Yup totally forgot

my camera again. But I swear I'll have some pictures soon. But Mom, Dad, and Katherine are doing well and trying to adjust to their new life. Doggy Dexter is having a little bit of shock though.

Katherine Grace is here!

I totally forgot my camera in the rush to get to the hospital, but I'm proud to say I got to be the first one to hold the baby (except for of course the parents and medical professionals) and she is the sweetest thing in the whole wide world!
Mom and Dad and Little Kate are doing wonderfully and are already home from the hospital.
We are visiting tonight so I'll have some pictures up soon.
Just don't forget the camera.

My Darby friend....

is in labor! :) Well not so much fun right now, but I think she knows how much fun it will be later. So hopefully tomorrow I'll have some wonderful pictures to show off of the newest member of the Koogler family.

My biggest excuse is....

because I feel crummy I can watch all the TV I want.

So here's my favorite shows for the season (yes I know only part of them have started).

America's Next Top Model

This is a new show for me. I caught a whole season being replayed on MTV one day and things haven't been the same since.
My favorites for Cycle 9: Janet, Heather, Jenah.

Heroes

Second season better than the first? I think so.

Beauty and the Geek

Ashton Kutcher's social experiment. I LOVE IT! This season features two geeks and one beauty from Ohio. In fact one geek is an OSU Engineering student. This makes me chuckle to no end because he looks and behaves like some of Adam's friend and colleagues from college. Hahahahahohohohoho (even a little snort in there just because it's so funny).

The surprise winner for good pilot of the season:
Reaper

I wasn't even going to watch it, but some deep, dark part of me loves everything Kevin Smith does. "A schooner is a sailboat."

Still to come:
The Office on Thursday. Can't wait!

I've been in a funk

Ever since I've been sick, I have not been doing anything. I have not been cleaning my house, crafting, reading, writing, doing any sort of math, anything. I've still got ideas floating around in my head (like the bridesmaid dress, that now I'm starting to doubt my ability on, even after all the encouraging comments), but seem to have a lack of follow through. I even BOUGHT a card the other day instead of making one. Now that's just sad.
Maybe if I completed something, it would get me back in the habit of creating. Any suggestions?

Bridesmaid Dress Shopping...

In October I will be in JessieRae's wedding. I'm so excited, it's just here I go again.... Another bridesmaid dress to buy. I commend Jess for being so nice to her bridesmaids and just request a fall color (purple, orange, brown, burgandy, etc.) but I think I might go with green. Not a bright green, but a good deep green. I've got an idea in my head of what I want, which will of course make it hard to find in the right style and color. So today the great idea popped into my head... Make it! I've done it before, I know I can do it. I just have to think logistically if it's possible to do it in the time allotted (before Oct 26). This gives me a little over a month so I think I could actually possibly accomplish this. Well I guess I'll search online for a pattern close to what I have in my head.
