She leaned over to me and asked.....

Are you going to have a baby?

I could read her face in a heartbeat, it was the face of,"what have I done!? oh please say yes." I quickly smiled and said, "well actually I just did!" "He's at home with my mom."

I was volunteering in Abigail's class and another mother just happened to be there as well. At this point neither of us were needed but because there was only 20 minutes left of school we thought we'd just stick around in the back....chew the fat...


She said, "Well it's just that Abby had mentioned that there was a baby but I wasn't sure if it was here or not..." But Her face said, "I did it again! Someone please smack me in the head till I'm dead!!


I understood that she meant well. I mean how many times have we said something that just plain came out all wrong? I've done it a million times. My parents call it diarrhea of the mouth. Words just fall out of your mouth before your brain had time to absorb the thought.

~however~

All I know is that the sleepless nights, the blogging & sitting on my butt, the staying up till 3 to clean, and the wolfing down of whatever food you can when you can like your an emaciated wild animal has

-NOT PAID OFF!-

Memo to me:

1 gazzillion sit ups

starting...tomorrow, yeah tomorrow sounds good...
Maybe this would help:

You look good for just having a baby. Hey I just looked at Audrey's blog and she is having her baby today. So I was wondering how the relief society does meals? It is different in every ward so I was just curious. I wanted to help her out and make her a dinner. If you dont know I will just wait till sunday to see if they see something. Love all of your pictures. Especially the little one very cute! Your other kids are superstars in soccer it looks like.

I love the cartoon (and brian regan) After Nikki I had a permanant slight pooch. My sisters who were 7 and 10 asked me if I was pregnant every other time I came over. And were always skeptical when I said no. I had to quite firmly tell them I was not and PLEASE stop asking I am just FAT! I even had my mo talk to them about it.

hey! your blog is cute! You always have cute things to say! My Suite number is 134 and I am just usually in the office on Mon, Wed, and Fri mornings from 9:15-11am. It would be fun to see you! Sometimes I am there more, but it all depends! I did see Tres about a week ago..that was cool! I got to write him a check! :) I am sure he liked me! :)

I think that it is always worse on the person asking than on the offended party. Usually. I just never ask people anymore. There is a girl at my work that is very large, and I just found out through the gossip mill that she is pregnant. I didn't dare ask how far along. It still feels like a trap somehow.

I think you look great!!! It's a hard situation for all to be in. Don't stress ~ afterall, you just had a darling baby!! Take it easy, don't get hard on yourself, and make sure to get sleep. That makes you feel so good, at least I always feel better about myself when I get a little more sleep than normal. You are WONDERFUL!!!!
