Confess......

(Ok, Annie, this is for you. And if you are looking for my confessions about tooting like you did on your blog, forget it. I have too much pride for that!)

Confess....
*I hate it when people misspell simple words. Makes me crazy.
*I could drink Diet Pepsi all day and have been known to drink a 6 pack a day and lie about it. (Don't drink it much nowadays. Doesn't sit well with my tummy, plus caffiene probably isn't too good for the baby girl.) Did I misspell anything simple yet.....?
*I like watching true crime shows but don't very often.......hubby isn't a fan. Forensics is stinkin' interesting to me.
*I do crossword puzzles or word searches all the time. Mostly at night. Will teases me. I tell him it will help me stay sane and exercise my brain.
*People that are super-dooper fit and spend hours each day at the gym intimidate me. Do they look at me and think "Ew! Work out already, girl!"??!! People that are more like me are easier for me to be around. KWIM anyone?? (Kinda hard to lose weight when you've been pregnant as much as I have in the last 4 years.......the end is in sight, and yes I will work out. Hasn't been my main focus. KWIM?Sheesh)!!
*I can go from zero to steamin' mad when the house gets messy. Ask my kids. Ask Will. Well, on second thought, don't ask them. Just take my word for it. I hate toys all over. I hate crumbs all over the floor. Grrrrrr.
*I talk to the pile of laundry on my floor when it gets huge. I tell it, it's goin' down. I hate having it pile up. In fact, I talk to myself all the time.
*I don't like to be late. It makes me crazy, anxious, mad, and so on.
*I don't like it when people complain about having their kids out of school for breaks and things. Statments like "I can't wait until they go back to school!" just seems so dang rude to me. "Do your kids know you don't want them around", I always wonder? Just sayin'. I get "Me Time" each week, so don't think I am not human, but I try to not make my kids feel like I don't want them around.
*I could\will\need to eat a whole bag of Doritos and blame it on the kids. "You didn't get any, Will??? So sorry. Those kids just went hog wild and ate them all! I tried to stop them." That sounds so good right now actually.....
*I don't like it when anyone in my family stays in their jammies, and hair not done all day. Ugh. Even if we don't go anywhere, which is most days, I make my kids get dressed and get their hair done. I feel lazy if it gets past noon and I am still in my jammies. It happens sometimes, especially if I didn't get ready before school time.
*I have a hard time spending money on entertainment or eating out. I have buyers remorse afterwards......ugh. True story. Ask Will. I am such a drag. :(
*I wish more people would homeschool. How cool would that be?!
*I think that grown women that are in love with Edward are weird. I think the whole "Twilight" thing is not that amazing. Want to read an amazing book? How about "Man's Search for Meaning". It's about a man that lived through the Holocaust. Just sayin'.
*I can\do\will eat chocolate as soon as I get up. Yummy. Then I crack open a pop. I do drink a ton of water, though to make up for my pop habit, so THERE.

Now your turn. :)

Counting down...

Can I just say never has anyone been so excited for the NEW YEAR! Not just because little Audrey will be joining us super soon, but because I love having a clean slate and a whole fresh new year out before us. I have read articles about how many people are so optimistic for the new year since the economy has been struggling and I count myself as one of those optimistic people! Will's transition to his private practice made last year really long; I knew it would be! Having done the whole start-a-law-practice-from-ground-zero before, we knew what we were in for. But, the Lord has blessed us and we have both learned so much. Obedience is KEY. Gratitude is ESSENTIAL. This new year has brought more business in the last few days than all the month of December and probably November, too and we are so grateful. Life is good.

I have not been blogging as much as I used to; I guess it is getting harder and harder for me to get school done the way I should so I feel like something has to go! Blogging it is......I thought about letting the laundry go, but decided against it. Gotta have clean clothes, kwim?! (I still have not gotten the whole picture uploading dilema corrected, hence this blog is gotta be the most visually boring in all the earth.) Oh well.

I saw my ob this week and he said that I can have the baby any day after the 9th; which is exactly one week before my due date. I was thinking that I would like to have her on the 12th, since that is a Friday and Will wouldn't have to miss work, plus that is Lincoln's birthday.......but he said that is too close to my actual due date and he doesn't want me going into labor. We are all so excited we can't hardly stand it. I have decided to sew a bumper pad, crib sheet, dust ruffle and maybe a diaper stacker....all of which are super simple or else I wouldn't even bother......I just want, (not need), something new and won't pay $200 for the whole set KWIM?? Can't you just see some of that darling fabric from Hobby Lobby as crib bedding....where are my shoes??? I gotta get over there! ...........oh and I want to make her blessing dress. I better get busy! LOL! So, we are anxiously counting down and imagining holding her in our arms!

Happy New Year to you all! :)
