Move it

I felt the baby move the other day. I'll be 17 weeks tomorrow. I was having a particularly crabby day. Nothing seemed to be going right and I was getting pretty upset. It was just one of those days. Then I felt baby peanut do a triple rotating backflip (or something close to that). It was the best pick me up I could have hoped for. I was grinning like a fool the rest of the day and everything was perfect. I love being a Mommy. We should get to find out the sex soon. Yay for ultrasounds!

I can't get enough of this picture. Jasper was trying to walk with Justin's shoes on but he needed some help. Those suckers are heavy. He thought it was great fun when Daddy came to save the day.

EEW!

A few of my most hated things.

1) Flies of all sorts - Landing on things and spreading their poop loving filth. Fruit flies really gross me out cause they swarm in hoards.

2) Fleas - Disgusting, unsanitary, germ spreading, icky villians of doom.

3) Mosquitoes - They terrify me. If a fly and a flea got it on and had a baby it would be a mosquito. It's the worst creature in the universe.

4) Ticks - Sneaky little bastards of burrowing disease.

That about sums up my list of foulness. Of course there are others that thoroughly give me the heeby-jeebies but these sickos top my list. What are you most grossed out or scared by?

Note: While looking for images for this post I actually had to stop a few times because I was so grossed out. With my weak pregnancy stomach I got thisclose to vomiting. Eew!

Sinful Colors

I came across a nail polish that I love and I have to share it with you. It's called Sinful Colors. My favorite is the hot pink which I'm wearing right now on my fingers and tootsies. It dries in a matte finish so be sure to grab a shiny top coat if you want the sparkle.This image is from a search I did on Bing. It's from a site called The Daily Varnish.

Pomegranate

You know those little word games you played in school?

Weiner is to a boy what ______ is to a girl:
a) Mountain Dew
b) Coochie
c) Pencil

Of course, my school assignments were never quite that fun. Bummer. Back to my point here, the other day me and Jasper were eating a pomegranate. He loves them! And it got me to thinking...
Pomegranate is to winter time what sunflower seeds are to summer time! I'm not sure why I worded it like that in my head but I did.

Enjoy your daily dose of randomness.

Brave Kid

This was too powerful not to share. Hope it moves you like it did me.



We will raise our family to stand up to bullies and lend a hand to the bullied. Kinda like an emotional Robin Hood. :)

Fail

I'm working on updating my blog. I realize it's the opposite of spectacular right now. I'll fix it tomorrow. I'm freakin' exhausted.

...and I'll actually put the effin music up tomorrow as well.

Someone hit the EPIC FAIL button.

Ulgh.

Christmas Music

I LOVE CHRISTMAS!!

Yes, I know that Thanksgiving has not happened yet. I love Thanksgiving. I plan on celebrating that holiday also and giving it all the hooplah it is due. However, there is nothing wrong with giving Christmas spirit more time to make people smile. I refuse to pretend I'm not ridiculously wound up and stoked that Christmas is just a blink away.

"The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear." No truer words have ever been spoken.

Christmas cheer is year-round with my family. Every November I wait for the time when it's socially acceptable to put up our tree and bust out all the decorations. I'm getting the warm and fuzzies just thinking about it! You know what? I'm a big kid and I can do what I want. I see a tree in our near future. Our very near future.

Enjoy the festive music while I hunt for our ornaments.

Merry Christmas!
