Earthquake in Cincinnati????

While sitting at my desk today shortly after 11:00 a.m. I felt my chair begin to rock back and forth and my first thought was what in the world is going? Then I realized EARTHQUAKE!!!! Now I have never been in an earthquake before and had no idea what it felt like so this was a new experience for me. All I can say is I was on the fifth floor of a building in downtown Cincinnati and we were moving! It was actually quite interesting. To my knowledge no damage was done. It lasted about 15 or 20 seconds and then it stopped. Turns out it was an aftershock and the real earthquake occurred about 5:30 a.m. and I slept through it! Nice! The earthquake registered a 5.2 and the aftershock was 4.5. I can't imagine what it would be like to feel an earthquake that registered about 6.5 because the building was swaying at 4.5. Hopefully, this is the end of the quakes and all is well! At least I created a new memory!

Pick my Name

Hey, it's Bethany. I am taking over my Mom's blog for just one post. We have been arguing back and forth for some time now over what my Mom should be called when she becomes a Grandma. That is why I have decided to take matters to the internet. That is right, you people who read my Mom's blog get to vote in this crazy debate. She has agreed to go with this...so vote wisely, as you are choosing what my children will be calling her. YIKES!

Baby Porter is a Girl!!!

Well, its official...BABY PORTER IS A GIRL!!!!! How exciting is that??? Matt and Janell went for an ultrasound today and found out we are having a Baby Girl and the best news is she is healthy and doing well...although she wasn't very cooperative and kept moving around and hiding. How fun! She already knows how to play hide and seek! What a smart baby :-)

I wanted to post her ultrasound picture but for some reason I can't get it to upload. So I will have to have my daughter assist me with that later. Hopefully, I will have it up later in the day!
