Life...

Life has been very crazy and interesting! Between the twins (who are now getting too close to 3 to suit my fancy!) getting into mischief, spending time with our church family, doing a bit of travelling, and keeping the house clean for showings...it's been crazy around here!

Weekend before last, we went to my parents on Thursday night. Friday, Mom, the kids and I just hung around the house. While Dad and Will went fishing and Lindsay and Samuel went to their marriage finance class. Then Friday night, we left Daddy and Uncle Samuel in charge of the twins, while Papa, Nana, Sissy and I went to see Kings of Leon in concert! It was so fun! The concert was great, they really put on a good show! I was appalled at the people there though. Women dressed so immodestly...they couldn't even walk without having to hold their skirt down! Men were spouting off more cursing than I've ever heard in my life! I don't know if I'm just old in a young person's body or what...but I was embarrassed by their actions. But I just tried to ignore them (as best as I could), enjoy the show and time with my family. Saturday, Lindsay had to work and Samuel had some guy time planned with his buddies, so the rest of us went to a company picnic that Dad's work was having. It was fun! Then Saturday night, River came over and Daddy fixed us a birthday dinner (My birthday is the 31st of March and her's is the 4th of April) Sunday, we got up early and went to meet with the Harrison congregation. It was so much fun to see them and spend a little time with them! We had services, ate lunch, then took the kids to plat at the park while we visited.

I've had a lot of people ask me how I'm doing after my miscarriage. It's hard still. I have a hard time when I find out anyone is pregnant, or having a baby. I just don't look at the pictures they put on Facebook...it's too hard. I am happy for people, but it just reminds me of what I lost. I'm just ready to have another baby....and terrified at the same time! I know when/if I find out I'm expecting again, it will be hard. I'm excited about it, but since I've been through it twice now, I'm scared silly!!! Please continue to pray for us!

This past Saturday, I attended my first Weight Watcher's meeting. I'm tired of feeling like a fat blob, so I decided to do something about it! All in all, I have about 21 lbs I want to lose. It's been great so far. Pretty easy to figure out the points for things, and stick with it. Of course, Saturday and Sundays are hard days...why does everyone bring such good food to Sunday potluck? ha! So I went over my daily points and had to use a few of my weekly extras. But yesterday, I did perfectly! I ate exactly the 29 points I was supposed to, and felt full! I weighed myself yesterday, and I've already lost a pound! So just 20 more to go!

This morning, while the kids and I were having our morning cuddles, Meredith suddenly jumped up and said, "Let's dance, Momma!" Then asked me to sing the "lalala" song (aka. Smurf theme song) So there I was singing "lalala" while she was skipping & dancing around the living room.

Seth enjoys "swimming" around the house...scooting himself on his tummy. lol  My kids know just how to make me laugh!

They continue to be the CUTEST and most HILARIOUS kids on earth! I'm so thankful that God placed them in my arms! :)

I guess that's about it...the kids are asking for some "pink" and "chLOClate" milk...lol (aka...strawberry and chocolate.) So I better go get that fixed for them!
