Just so you know...it ain't worth it

So I kind of had my heart set on having this baby on 07/07/07 so that not only would it be easy to remember but so I could also share the date with Eva Longoria and her wedding aniversary (not really). Because my doctor is a lettle leery on malpractice suits, he will not scoop this baby out until the end of the month (boo) unless I go into labor (yay!).

In an effort to get such movement ahem moving along yesterday I:
vacuumed all 3 floors, did 6 loads of laundry, scrubbed the kitchen and mopped the floors, carried 3 boxes of Granpa's slides up the stairs, helped Brad unload the camping gear, weeded my side yard, carried Amelia everywhere and cleaned my shower (Which didn't really even need it)

This morning I:
weeded the farm at my mom's for 1 1/2 hours.

At 12:00 pm, I decided that 07/07/07 was a really stupid and lousy day to have a baby because I can hardly move. I've been in bed for 3 hours.

Watch out 07/17/07....i'm inventing projects to do as we speak.

you truly put forth and honest effort however I always preferred trying to induce labor by what they try to sell as Labor Inducing Foods, ie. garlic pizzas, oniony stuff etc. Maybe try that for the 17th so you don't wear yourself out! You deserve a break! Good Luck in enduring this blastin heat. BTW what about the reunion? I would love to get your take....

So I stumbled upon your blog. You are hysterical. I knew Brad in high school, so tell him hi from me. And congratulations!

Why I totally rule: How I rediscovered my chi

(In order to fully appreciate this post, you MUST put on the background music. Just click the play from youtube. This has potential to be a longagong post so you might as well enjoy some tunes. I did most of my training with these gentleman blasting in my ear. Vampire Weekend, I love you.) Here's the story with the gory details. Why do you tri? On October 18, 2004 I delivered a 16 week old boy in the same room of the American Fork hospital that I lost one six months earlier. (I get pregnant really easily.) The previous week I had seen the doctor and everything was looking good and right on track so yay for me. While the first one was devastating (a whole other post for a whole other day), it was number 2 that changed me. I was so angry at my body for betraying me and not letting me do what I wanted it to do. I figured I was doing all the "right things" with the taking care of myself so therefore, I would be able to carry the babies to term and everyone would live happily ...

I'll go where you want me to go dear Lord, but Primary?!

Brad took the picture of me teaching GD a year ago. I was not pleased. No pictures. Brad took this picture of Max while I was teaching GD a month ago. I was pleased. Pictures of Max are fine by me. Some important thoughts on my new calling: In the 21 years since I have been in Primary as a merrie miss (apparently they are not called that anymore), I have subbed a handfull of times. It was not a success. One time, while subbing for Brad I went into the class and the boys had escaped out the window. All I saw were a set of feet as the kid was leaping out. Another time, while subbing for Brad I used the tie some kid was using and irritating everyone around him with and TIED HIM TO THE CHAIR. Another time, while subbing, the kid sliced his finger on the chair (not the same kid and he was not trying to escape my tying him up.) and ended up in the ER. (and it so happens that his mom is my 2nd counselor. I think that's funny.) I really really really loved teaching Gospel Doctrine. I hope ...

I am not sure if he is showing off his new tie he got for Christmas? He is a handsome little guy!
