Hey Devina! Nice to ‘see’ you here! I’ve been trying to keep up with your blog too (since finding it a couple of weeks ago).

Jen – uh, there’s no need to send anything for me to work on!! But thanks so much for the kind offer! Our to-do list here is plenty long. I just can’t find many things on the list that my pregnant body will agree to do.

Yay! I am SO excited for you – can’t wait to “meet” Peanut, but was glad to have the answers to some FAQs in the meantime!

And really, do you mean to tell us that you have nothing to do while you wait in that new house of yours??? No unpacking left to do? No organizing closets? No rooms to paint (or at least pick out colors for)? If this is indeed true, I can send you some stuff . . .

Shannon-

I’ve been reading your blog this summer and have really enjoyed your posts- I’ll be praying for you these next two weeks.

Wow, Chelsea – those are bad. I’m glad you are still on speaking terms with the elder! The worst I’ve had is the guy at Lowe’s a few days ago who looked at me, then looked at George and said “Woah, you need to get her to a hospital!” He apparently thought I was ripe enough to be birthing a baby any minute and I guess he didn’t want it happening in his store.

The worst things ever said to me while I was pregnant:

“Wow! You look ready to pop!” (I was only six months along.)

“Is it twins?” Said to me one day AFTER my due date because I was so gigantic.

“If you get any bigger you’re going to need your own zip code.” This came from an elder at Wayside, who is still a good friend despite his lack of tact.

I feel so horrible because I think that I have asked all of those questions. And I know from just being pregnant how old they can get. It is just because we all care so much. And for me, the idea of maybe being there to help out with the kids when it all is going on is pretty exciting since I had to miss out on the natural birth experience myself. (C-section for all those who don’t know me, not a single contraction.)

Haha, thanks for the FAQ’s!
Well, my thoughts are, the sooner the baby is born, the sooner it will be old enough for you to come over here and visit! Either, leave the baby & the other kids at the grandparents, or bring the baby along… no difference to me, but we’d certainly love you and George to come visit! hehe…
