As many of you know my favorite thing in the whole world to do for a past time is shopping. This past Saturday I was able to drop the kids off at church and spend a few hours with my friend shopping. Here's the problem nothing fits!!!!!!!!!!! As I have told some of you, my body hears the words your pregnant and instantly can't fit into my cloths. My body is very stubborn and not very nice. I'm at the point where it is WAY to early for maternity clothes, but my other clothes are just not fitting right. My friend Leslie turned me onto some pants at Old Navy. They were a hit!!!!!!!! I'm sorry but for the next few months you will only see me in two outfits. I hope most of you don't notice. At least I won't be wearing my black sweat outfit. Up till this weekend that was all I had. Thanks for letting me share my clothes problem with you.

Season Ending
Ryan and I have found our evenings lost in the television world this year. We have tried to stick to my resolution of going to bed earlier, but I must say we did not cut out any of our shows. Last week started the season ending of our television adventure. Thursday was the "Office" I was extremely disappointed that they ended the show exactly like last year minus the kiss. As my friend Stephanie pointed out maybe this will be the year they really connect we'll see. (for those of you who don't watch the office none of this makes since.) This will be the busy week, HERO'S, The bachelor, American Idol, and LOST. Oh wow!!!!! I can hardly wait for a week filled with cliff hanger after cliff hanger.
Please don't feel like you have to comment on this post. I realize it is completely boring, but I have had a really hard time topping my pregnancy post. I have been trying to come up with something good to post, but it just wouldn't come to me. So, because of this you are stuck with reading about my television obsession.

The Pregnancy Story
Per the request of my friend Becca, here's the pregnancy story.
I knew this was the month. For some reason I just knew. I have been telling Ryan all month that this is the one!!!!! No one told me they have five day ahead tests. That sounded great!!!!! I started taking them last Wednesday. By Friday morning they were showing a very faint line. I was so excited. I ran and showed Ryan and he said where is the line. I held the test up to the light and loudly shouted right there!!!!!! DON'T YOU SEE IT!!!!!!!!! A little bit he says. Alright so the story goes on and two more tests later the line is still faint. I decide on Sunday that Morgan and I should just run up to Target. As we are shopping I happen to go over to the Women's personal aisle and see that they have digital test that say PREGNANT or NOT PREGNANT. This sounded like the perfect solution. I ran home and took the test and PREGNANT popped up. I ran downstairs and put it in Ryan's face and said see!!!!!!!!!! We jumped up and down yelling for the kids. They ran upstairs and we shouted the news. (We don't have to mention all of the money that I have spent on the five tests that I took. It will be our little blogging secret).
We decided it would be fun to have Morgan call all of our family and tell them. There is nothing more fun than your child so excited on the phone describing this new baby we are going to have.
There you have it blogging friends. The McNally's and their pregnancy story. Not to exciting, but perfect for our family.

Customer Service
Warning!!!! Warning!!!!!!!! Warning!!!!!!!! This blog is a complete rant. The kids and I had to go to Safeway today on our way home from school. To begin with this is not a good idea. It is lunch and nap time, but I just needed a couple of things. We get out of the car the kids get into one of those driving carts and we are on our happy way. We are very successful in the store. We find everything we needed and we head up to the checkout. The store is very quite so I know we are going to make it through this whole journey. I step in the only line open and am standing behind another women who is checking out. Brandan decides to look at the candy then to touch the candy. Time keeps going and the lady in front of me is still talking to the check out lady about some shrek movie tickets she gets for buying certain items. The checkout lady is rudely telling her that she can't help her. By this time Brandan is trying to open the wrappers. I really don't blame him it is lunch time. Safeway has still not opened another line, I guess they mean business when they say threes is a crowd. There was only me waiting for 10 minutes. Now the manager has come and is helping the lady. He is able to get her movie tickets and she is on her way. I step up, the lady did not apologize for my wait, the manager is standing there talking to her about something not even related to the lost tickets. I am getting very angry at this point. Not only did she not apologize she didn't even greet me. After everything was rang up she finally spoke and asked if I needed help out. I was afraid to say yes, but I had to. It took another ten minutes for someone to come up and help me out. By this time I said I can just help myself out. A man who works there says oh, do you need help out. Oh my goodness I had it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The moral of the story is, I will never go back to SAFEWAY for a few items. I know I will pay more at Roth's, but you can't beat their customer service.

Trouble for the first time
This post may sound dumb for many of you. It is one of those posts that I am going to make a copy of and put it in a baby book for Morgan. One day I know she will laugh about it.
It was bound to happen, I knew it would. We are almost through the school year and not a problem had occurred. Until today, her teacher said, "can I talk to you." Oh no, what in the world. Well apparently Morgan has had some problems with talking in class. She is not following directions because she has become the social butterfly. This may sound stupid, but this is totally out of her character. I'm not in denial, I know she isn't perfect and at home she is always in trouble. But, I did think she was pretty good about respecting the classroom.
Anyway, I told the teacher I would talk to her. When we got in the car Morgan just stared crying and saying she was really sorry. She told me she has a really hard time not talking and she's not sure why. Of course I am trying to not laugh. She is so easy, because she punishes herself.
I told her she will write a letter to her teachers saying she was sorry for how she was not respectful in class. She is also not allowed to watch t.v. today or play her video game. These were huge punishments for her.
I'm sure this won't be the last time this happens, but it stinks when it is the first time.
