Dead at 40??????

Last night when Tayva was getting ready for bed she was telling me about all the girls in her class that had "boyfriends" I asked her if she had one. She said "NO way--I don't want one" So I told her good. You should probably wait until your 40 before you get a boyfriend. Her response: "40??????? I'll be dead by then!!!! " I could not help but laugh my head off as I proceded to tell her the people in her life that were about to be 40!!!!

10 Questions God won't ask........

So my friend sent this to me in an e-mail. It was perfect for me because many times I am guilty of comparing myself to others and wishing I had "more" But then I have to stop and remember how blessed I have been to be able to have Tayva in my life and a new husband and all my friends that I have been able to continue to keep contact with over the years. So I thought I would post it for others to see but also to have on hand during my "down" times. Here it goes:

10 Questions God Won't Ask
1. God won't ask what kind of car you drove, He'll ask how many people you drove who didn't have transportation.
2. God won't ask the square footage of your house, He'll ask how many people you welcomed into your home.
3. God won't ask about the clothes you had in your closet, He'll ask how many you helped to clothe.
4. God won't ask what your highest salary was, He'll ask if you compromised your character to obtain it.
5. God won't ask what your job title was, He'll ask if you performed your job to the best of our ability.
6. God won't ask how many friends you had, He'll ask how many people to whom you were a friend.
7. God won't ask in what neighborhood you lived, He'll ask how you treated your neighbors.
8. God won't ask about the color of your skin, He'll ask about the content of your character.
9. God won't ask why it took you so long to seek Salvation, He'll lovingly take you to your mansion in heaven, and not to the gates of Hell.
10. God won't ask how many people you shared this with, He'll ask if you were ashamed to.

our ultrasound

Well here are a couple pictures of Elijah Carter in utero. She said baby is still measuring about 6 days smaller than original due date which just means I probably conceived later in my cycle since every ultrasound has been consistant with that. So Original due date: may 20th. but could be as late as the 26th!!! I just wanna hold this little baby. Tayva is so very excited. She is helping me pick out outfits and asked if she gets to feed him sometimes. I still haven't convinced her to change his diaper yet but maybe when he's born it will change!!! (doubt it)

Is it a????????

Well Husband finally caved in and decided he wants to be part of shopping for this little baby and wants to know the gender of our baby. I haven't posted what we are having before because I didnt' want it to get back to him somehow!!! But since he now knows I can tell everyone that we are having a little BOY!!!!

Something to think about!!!

So for those of you who have facebook you probably know by now I had some problems in the beginning of my pregnancy a few weeks ago. Well the other day I was at the hospital with Tayva waiting to get some lab work done for my 12 week appointment and Tayva turns to me out of the blue and said "Mom, I finally figured out why you were bleeding a couple weeks ago" (for those who do not know I started bleeding at about 5 weeks and it lasted about 10 days) Anxious to hear what she had to say I let her continue: You were bleeding so much because the baby was getting lots of bloody noses!!!! Now why couldn't my doctor figure that one out!!!

No- pictures just words

Hey Everyone who reads this I just wanted to let you know that we're expecting!!!! Yippie. My due date is tentatively May 22nd (but that can always change) We are all so very excited.

Funny for the day!!!!!

LADY'S YEARLY EXAM
I went to the doctor for my yearly physical.
The nurse started with certain basics;
"How much do you weigh?" she asked.
"135," I said.
The nurse put me on the scale. It turns out my weight is 180.
The nurse asked, "Your height?"
"5 foot 4," I said.
The nurse checked and saw that I only measure
5' 2"
She then took my blood pressure and told me that it is very high.
"Of course it's high!" I screamed, 'When I came in here I was tall
and slender! Now I'm short and fat!"
She put me on Prozac.
