mood: tired, but waiting for the quiche to finish cooking
listening to: Joni Mitchell
last read: kimi's blog

wanted to post this picture. (if you dont want your kids on here, email me... and i will apologize and take them off) i watched the spelman3 and sturgess2 on tuesday for about 2 hours. it was chaotic bliss. it was actually kind of a break for me. jack was sleeping and the kiddos played outside. i got to catch up on emails and some house cleaning. so, after talking to trevor, we decided, that Lord willing, we will have 5 more children. i just think that we are such great parents that by having that many children, we can REALLY make the world a better place. JUST KIDDING!!!! i think we'll stick to 3 or 4 total, but more power to those of you who can juggle all those chitlins. some women are made for it, i clearly, am not. but i'll do it for a couple hours.

am so excited for beth moore tomorrow. am more excited to spend quality time with mah girlz. i hope jenn comes. we do see each other regularly, but it always seems like we are trying to catch up on each others' weekly lives in one breath before we move on to whatever the rest of the day holds. and for a quality-time gluton like me, i crave time to just sit and marinate..

i am finally, thoroughly enjoying my littlest man. how could you not with a laugh like this:

(there was supposed to be a video here, but it's just taking too darn long. ignore all references to the video)

dr hurwitz said he isn't rigid from lack of 02 at birth, but he just has a strong will and is "extremely intelligent." although i dont think my child is an idiot, i think dr's sometimes give these compliments to pacify parents. i kinda laughed. i'll still have janelle (my bff who is an early intervention specialist) keep an eye on him. it does kinda make sense though, the little stinker!
after watching cherya's little angel on tuesday, it made me excited for jack to get older.

(dang gina, this video is taking forever to upload) let's see... what else... found out my faithful weds night bible study is switching to thursday next year and the leaders are stepping down. peops is in a uproar man! women were crying, women were slandering the church, it was absurd. gotta LOVE women's minstry, no?

oh, NBS canceled trevor's company trip! i am SO SAD. it is my one guaranteed vaca per year. we were supposed to go up to big bear, but b/c of the economy, no deal. i really shouldn't complain. at least my husband has a stable good job. but that trip, or the idea of it, is what gets me through levy season. that and lounging all day at kimi's. think we're changing it to amy's this year. i miss amy. maaaan summer is a coming... i hate the heat.

ok... seriously, the video's been loading for 20 minutes now and it isn't even 1/3 of the way done. i'm going to bed and will check on it in the morning. gnite y'all


so, got up and the video still wasnt loaded. it looks like it started over or something. so, now i am trying to load it on you tube and just insert a link.

jack woke up at 6am (he's usually up at 7). he had rolled onto his stomach, and was POed. but, blessing in disguise, it gave me time to pack so i dont have to do it between coffee and leaving. my father in law is coming down to watch the boys. trevor and i are going to have lunch together and then i think i will go see a movie all by myself. anyone who's free is welcome to come.
