So, it's been awhile! Almost three months to be exact. Baby girl has come and although she is a great baby, our lives have been turned upside down! I'm not sure what the difference is between three and four, but goodness, it's crazy.
I'm nursing the baby and it's created some interesting conversations and events around here. Q was absolutely fascinated by the process and I found myself saying, "There is nothing wrong with what I'm doing, God made us mommies this way. However, this is not playgr0und talk! No telling your friends what your mama is doing at home." Q is very analytical and scientific and just loves to know how things work. I had to look it up online. Who knew I would ever thank God for the internet! *Huge sigh* Then, there's Lulu. She wants to know "Why's Elle drinking from youse booby?" (We're all adults here, right?, But if not, pardon the "b" word :) She has also tried out my nursing paraphernalia. The other day, the kids and I were sitting on the couch, watching Christmas movies, the baby was eating (big surprise there) and we were all totally content. Then Kennedy says that Lulu is playing with my pump. I look over and the child has her shirt up, chest to the pump and the suction going full blast! We started laughing and the little booger looks back at us, with a huge grin on her face, but does not take her chest off. I have a feeling that God is up there just cracking up at this particular creation of His!! Goodness knows, I'm constantly storming heaven's gate over her.
All things considered, life is chaotic and absolutely wonderful! I'm going to leave you with my mother's favorite new saying, "It is what it is!"

Slightly Panicked!
Hey ya'll! So, I think the baby dropped today, and I have to say, I'm not impressed with how I handled it. You would think this being my fourth and all, that this would not phase me. However, I have cried and moped around all day. Worrying about her coming to early and maybe not having, oh, I don't know, ANYTHING ready for the baby could be it? You know how it is with your first one...everything bought and in place by what, your second trimester? Then with each one, it gets later and later, until it hits you in the stomach! (Like my pun?, Huh, huh?!) Ok, I'm rambling. Anyway, than I start worrying about getting the flu when I deliver and coughing when they cut me. How horrible would that be? I guess what I need is prayers and my sense of humor back to make it these last few weeks. If any of my three readers could help with that, I would appreciate it!

Oldies but Goodies
I started this blog, by request, from many friends. However, since I started the blog, nothing funny has happened...that can be shared in print anyway! So, while we wait, I thought that I would write down some old stories that I, certainly don't want to forget, and hopefully will bring a few laughs to you as well.
One Thursday, Lulu*(my two year old) and I were at a friends' house, where she had stayed while I was at Bible Study. My friend and I were chatting and her three year old came to us very upset. She was so upset, we couldn't understand what she was saying. It was then, that I realized I hadn't seen or heard Lulu in quite awhile. I started to panic just a little, when the three year old pulled me to the bathroom. Now I understood why she was upset...Lulu was completely undressed, with the tea set in the toilet, having her own personal tea party! Did I freak out? Mildly, until I realized her mouth wasn't wet! Nothing a quick shower wouldn't fix. Fortunately for me, my friend did not disown us!
I Thess. 5:18 "In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you."
