Does anyone else out there watch TLC's "What not to wear?" I have been watching that show for quite a few years. Back in the day (like 4 years ago) I really did care about the way that I looked when I left the house. Well sadly, the people they have on that show are starting to look pretty familiar. Uh, kinda like me. They had a chick on there last week that was wearing her PJ pants when she took the kids to school, and maybe here and there for some quick morning shopping. There she was in all her glory running around town in her fancy pj pants a tee shirt and tennis shoes, with funky socks to add to all the beauty. Wow, I think I wore the same outfit last week a couple times. . . Well there is hope for me a guess, just like her I just need to go on that show and let "Stacy and Clinton" pick on me for a while so I can have my $5000.00 and a free trip to NYC. Shoot, I will even let them cut my hair and do my makeup! Of course I gotta wait until after this last baby so I will at least be wearing normal sizes again.

Ok, so I really am not a 2 posts per day kinda girl. I have a hard enough time with one. But today, just now actually I got a phone call from my cell phone. I was perplexed. "Umm, hi. I have your cell phone. I found it outside of Joann's a couple minuets ago." I didn't even know I had lost it. After the initial shock, I stumbled over the words, "So if you are calling me on it I am guessing that your gonna give it back?" "Uh, of course, I will be at the taco bell eating lunch for the next 30 minuets or so. . ." "Oh well I will come and get it there if you leave it with the manager, later cause I just laid my kids down for there naps." "Well where are you at cause maybe I could drop it by there on my way home." "Man I am way over here in Stevensville, pretty far from there I wouldn't ask you to do that." "Hey, its no problem, really. . ."
So I gave this chick my address, and directions to my house. And 10 minuets ago she knocks on my door. She was like, "I didn't want to ring the bell and wake the kids. . " All I could say was, "You are Awesome! God Bless you REALLY!"
She left, I don't know her name, where she lives, and probably will never see her again. It all reminds me of one of those EBay or car insurance commercials, were people just do nice and good things. . . just because. I am in awe. I didn't even know it was missing. Wow.

I have to set this up a bit or you may all think Jeff is NUTS! . . .
One of friends who is also a pastor at our church is in the midst of planting a church in Atlanta G.A. He did a sermon of updates and stuff to pray for a couple weeks ago. It was also about recognizing Gods "call". And LISTENING. . . I know He he was also plugging for some families from the church who felt led to move with them to help start this new church, this is all very cool, although it sucks that yet another good friend of mine will be leaving Michigan. Well this is a conversation that followed this sermon the next week.

Jeff: "Heidi, I have really been thinking hard about Robs message on Sunday."

Me: "Ummm, Honey, There are no Nuclear Power plants in the greater Atlanta area, I doubt we would be any help if we couldn't even afford to buy food. . ."

Jeff: "Oh, No, that isn't what I meant, or was thinking about anyway. . ."

Me: "Uhh, Ok what then?"

Jeff: "Well you know how I have been planing on going under the knife after this Baby is born. Well He (Rob) was talking about how God sometimes calls you to do things that are the opposite of what you are planing on doing or WANT to do.. . . Maybe God doesn't want me to get that snip snip because He wants us to have more kids. . ."

Me: "Did God also tell you that you would be the one of us getting pregnant again? Because if not, I think you are just gonna have to go against God this time babe."

Have you ever bought something from someone, but you are not sure who, and unfortunately you have never gotten what you bought? This has happened to me a few times. It happened to me once on e-bay. This was a really big bummer because I really wanted my 24 pack of canning jars and lids for $5.99. It was a really good deal I won, I paid that day (like I always do) and I never got my jars! . . . or any word from the person that I bought them from. Later I got a refund from paypal and then a note from EBay that said that the person I bought these from was no longer a "registered user". The big suckiest time was when I bought a comforter and sheet set for Ethan from Totalybedding.com . Who by the way has an "F" on Better business bureau. I wish I would have checked that before I bought. Well I paid them $126.00 and NEVER got my bedding. After calling them so many times they started pretending that they didn't speak English! Can you believe that!? Well any way I am over that one too, I guess. But here is the recent sticker: I bought about 8 boxes of Girl Scout cookies from someone. I don't remember who, where, or when. Oh, I know I should have been more "responsible" and written this transaction down, but I didn't. Now lately I have really wanted those cookies. I know that I didn't pay for them yet so really what I am thinking is that that darn girl scout sold My cookies to someone else. I just wish I would have had the chance to pay and get my cookies. Oh well, I guess I will have to just go and eat some Oreos but man, I could really go for a "thin Mint" right now. . . .

I thought I would write a little about how cool ultra sounds are. If you have ever been pregnant or had a wife that was how many of you have had the 3 arms and no legs dream, or the normal body but legs like a squid dream? Maybe I am just a paranoid thinker or maybe just have a bit to vivid of an imagination, but really these are two dreams that I have had. Maybe yours have not been as crazy, but I am SURE that you have had a crazy baby dream. I can still not believe that my mother had three kids and didn't get to see any of them until they came out. That was only twenty some years ago. Man when I got my first ultra sound with Hali I was so in shock and aw of that little tiny being swimming around in me, it just didn't seem real. Man, since I had Hali they have really improved the technology. My office has one of those 4D machines. I'm not really sure what that means, but it is really cool. It is kinda like looking at clay image of your kid, in your womb! Granted it's still a little blurry, and I am sure it makes WAY more since to the Doctor then to me or Jeff, but WOW. I guess as of now I am about 15 weeks or so. I had and Ultrasound at my first appointment (they do that now) at 12 weeks. What a relief, sure they don't do all the checks that come at the 22 week one, but just seeing that my baby has LEGS and no Tentacles puts my mind at ease. I took 2 pictures of the little pictures to put on the computer, THANK GOD! Because Jeff took those pictures around showing everyone and then washed them in his jean pocket. Oh well at least I have these two. Enjoy!
