Sitting here with everything and nothing to say.
I have had this window open for a couple of hours now, just trying to decide what to post about. The main thing in my head is the fact that my husband is currently in Asheboro, pitching to a company there in the hopes of picking up some work. I alternate between praying that things go well and feeling like I’m going to throw up from the nervousness.
As for the other stuff bouncing around in my brain, here’s just a sample…
- With the arrival of the new LUSH store in Raleigh at Crabtree Valley, I’ve finally been able to try a couple of bath bombs and LOVE them. Now I want to try their hair color. The idea of my grays becoming bright red is strangely appealing. Has anyone tried it? Does anyone want to have a LUSH hair color party with me?
- I have a hair appointment scheduled for tomorrow. I am anxious to see what she makes of my badly thinning hair. I’ve never had this problem while pregnant…it usually becomes very thick and pretty. Right now it’s dull, thin, and lifeless. Yuck.
- Nobody in town will pierce my nose while I’m pregnant. Which doesn’t surprise me, but there goes my fabulous 33rd birthday gift to myself. Oh well! I still plan to have it done, but it may be a little bit longer. I did find some really cool opal nose screws, though!
- As difficult as 2 year olds can be, this may also be my favorite age. Right now he’s running back and forth from the art table with various pieces of scribbled paper and saying “look, look!” He is SO proud of himself!
- Both boys have requested a baby sister. I hope they’re not disappointed if it’s a brother instead.
- Yes, we do know what causes pregnancy. Yes, we wanted another baby. No, we don’t care what your opinion is. Why do people think it’s OK to comment on this?
- I am excited about the location of the new YMCA, which will open right before the baby arrives. It will be about 5 minutes from our house and I plan to utilize it as soon as I’m cleared for exercise! I just hope our income permits it at that point.
- With just me and the youngest home today, I think wee’re going to go have lunch at McD’s and then head by Shoppes of Steele Street so I can get some *good* chocolate. Must go do something with my nasty hair and maybe put on some make-up…

I love posts like this. If I didn’t stop myself, ALL of my posts would look like this one. Kudos for just putting it all out there. Why is it that people are so infatuated/opinionated by families with more than 2 kids. This isn’t China folks, get over it.
Makes me want to have more than 2 just because. <— crazy

Emily, I don’t know but it’s been bad lately! And then I get some people who tell me they think it’s great that we’re having more. So strange that *anyone* thinks it’s their business to comment on!
Jamie, it is going to be in the Lowe’s Foods shopping center, where Pier 1 used to be. It opens (I think!) on Jan 2. There was an article in the paper a week or so ago.
