Do you realize how just one year of your life can flip things up side down? Let's think back to 08.08.08... are you there yet? I was there at 4:30 pm YESTERDAY, well not yesterday, 08.07.08. Yeah.... I was ahead of the game.
I'm just saying... who would have thought that a super sweaty hot girl would get sick of the song Summertime, to the point of almost yakking, run into some Barbie girls, some little boys, Maurice Starr, and have a front row seat to all of it? I didn't know that was for sure.
Even though I got to the point of stares, glares, and just straight up bitchiness people still turned out to be nice... if they kept their distance! I'm sorry for those of you who were around me, who were trying to help me and make sure I was okay. I guess I figured I was a "Big Girl Now" and could take care of myself. Apparently I can't when I haven't slept. :)
Over the past year there has been planning, chatting, crafting and more. Now we're celebrating knowing each other. It's crazy. This blog has gone from my thoughts to my dreams to reality.
Now, for those of you who were there, I know you've been thinking about the day yourself. If you were there then you should also be in St. Paul today for the reunion! For those of you not at the biggest damn mall in the country last year, you missed out on a great time. I hope my videos helped you through it :)

Well... someone was dirty dancin'!
NOTE: I do not know their actual due date, but I did create a ticker on the left so we can get an idea of how far along they are. I picked the middle of the month in December, so the 15th.

Joey McIntyre to Be a Dad Again
There's going to be another new kid on the block: Joey McIntyre tells PEOPLE that his wife Barrett is expecting their second child – a boy – in December.
"I still can't get over it," says the singer, 36, who also has 20-month-old son Griffin. "We feel so blessed."
So far baby no. 2 has already managed to throw his parents for a loop. "My wife actually took the [pregnancy] test but she thought it was negative," says McIntyre. "She came out and gave me this look like, 'No.' Then she showed me the test and I said 'It's positive! What the hell?'"
Then when the proud parents, who were convinced they were having a girl, found out they were adding another boy to the brood. "We were shocked," says McIntyre, who had his daughter's name picked out. But they're hardly disappointed. "It's going to be a trip to have a couple of boys around."
Griffin is more than ready for his new brother, says McIntyre, who grew up the youngest of nine kids. Along with constantly kissing his mommy's belly, "We say to him all the time, 'Do you want us to bring home a baby?'" Griffin's response? "Please!"
The toddler has also inspired Daddy to start a book drive through the Let's Get This Foundation. While on the road, McIntyre and the rest of the New Kids have collected thousands of new children's books and distributed them to children in need in various cities.
"My wife is an avid reader and from the get-go she sat down with him and read with him. You see the importance of that," says McIntyre, who also reads to Griffin some of his favorites like Good Night, Gorilla. "Then I found out there's a lack of age-appropriate books for kids, I saw a huge void and I knew our fans could step up." McIntyre hopes to reach 25,000 children by the time the guys wrap up their tour on July 18.
But the big question remains: Will his family grow to include nine kids? "I think we have a deal to keep going until we have a girl," says McIntyre with a laugh. "That's what my wife says."
