Lessons from this week...

Wow its been a busy week! Can' believe Christmas is THIS week! Wahoo!!
Here are a few things I learned this week...
1. How to change the oil in my car. (Thank you Erin!) Waaaaay easier than I ever thought=) now to spend the saved money on clothes...
2. There are some things you should NEVER say to a grieving family who lost a loved one or a pregnant lady. When in doubt, don't say it. If said person is crying uncontrollably, you should probably stop what you are saying.... just a thought.
3. There is finally a limit to the amount of chex mix and puppy chow I can eat. uggggh.
4. My most favorite sound on earth is Baby Good's heart beat. He seems to be quite the mover and the shaker=)
5. If you think you should maybe order a few extra Christmas cards - do it. You will need them.
6. Maternity pants aren't THAT bad and they are way more comfy .
7. There really is nothing like going home for the holidays.
8. Funerals should never include altar calls. Its just not right.
9. After 29 years, my dad is still my most favorite preacher.
10. I know it sounds crazy but Whole Foods really does have some great deals!

What about you? What did you learn this week?

  1. Not something I learned, something I already knew but was just reminded of....that I have the most amazing, supportive, encouraging, cool, beautiful, funny, and giving bestfriends in the world (Cori and Bethany) and I am so blessed to have you in my life. Thanks again for everything. For being there. Oh, and I am so excited to unwrap your soul for Christmas! :)

  4. I learned that a baby learns to track with you and smile between week 5 and 6. He smiles every morning now when I feed him. I also learned that by week 6 I can officially pack up the maternity clothes I've been wearing for the last 11 months. Freak out!! 10 lbs. left to lose!!
