My youngest sister is expecting.  Her due date is July 30th.  She and her husband live in Idaho but has been staying at my dads while she gets her GED.  We know it's a girl and Karla and her husband are thinking about the name Kira for the baby.  I have a couple pictures of us together.  If I can figure out how to upload pictures here I'll post one.  lol

I can't wait!   :bandance;

Okay, it's been a while since I've posted here.  So, somebody help me.  I'm having trouble uploading pics so can I link them from photobucket?  Or maybe I need to shrink their size?  I don't know.  All my other forums I just link from photobucket.  :banghead;

Don't link them. Download directly from your computer. The forum will shrink them for you I think. If they need fixing I will fix them Krisna. I would rather have to fix them then you not posting them.

Okay, cool!  I always felt kinda bad when I'd see you had to fix them but if that's easier for you then that's what I will do! 
Thanks! 

I have some of my other niece's and nephew I wanna post too!  And some of my sisters and me before the one who's expecting flew home.  :'( 

But I'll have to do it a little later.  Right now me and hubby are getting ready to go to a movie.
