Coming Soon: Bitsy
Today was measurably better than Friday...and yesterday for that matter. We actually made it to church before the first song was over & made it through the entire service without having to take anyone out for discipline issues.
The kids & I hung out in the house and watched Peter Pan while Husband did chores. I made mac & cheese & a jug of fruit tea & we headed in to the church picnic. The kids ran & played & had a wonderful time.
We came home, played out side, planted BabyGirl's Geranium & I potted my African Violet in an old planter that belonged to Bucka's mother. Then we drove the four wheeler to Big BIL's and our kids played with theirs for 30 minutes or so.
After we came back, the kids tried to catch lightning bugs & Husband went around the block on the four wheeler. He came back after his .22 when he found a skunk in a nearby field (a little too near by for our taste). As he was getting his gun out of the house, B.B. climbed up on the four wheeler to wait for his dad to come back out. I thought Husband had taken the key with him. I thought wrong. Just as Husband walked back out the door, B.B. hit the ignition button. I yelled, jumped, & started waddling towards the ATV as fast as I could go. Husband was heading to it much faster than I was from the other direction. Neither one of us reached it before B.B. got good & scared & started to jump off the four wheeler. When he did it, he hit the throttle (thank the good Lord above it was in neutral) and it terrified him. He threw himself face down on the ground & started screaming & crying.
Husband and I exchanged glances, looked at B.B. and both stifled laughs as I pried him off the dirt. When I asked B.B. what happened, he said, "Dat four weeder stared me, Mommy!" (That's B.B. for 'that four wheeler scared me.') He's decided it's not a good idea to get on the four wheeler without his dad much less press any buttons. Guess we won't have to worry about that again...for a while. He sat on my lap & cried for a full 3 minutes (which is a long time for that boy).

What! Is that you or is that a digitally altered pic of a super model with a bump? The way you've been talking I thought you would be HUGE! But you're not! You are going to be one of those annoying yummy mummies who look fabulous 5 minutes after baby is born, aren't you? Aw man!! You've made me feel fat now.
Hey Sis glad you had a better day with the kids..And I hope that B.B. will remember this longer than a couple of days. Surprised he didn't scare Bitsy out today.
Hugs to you and the family,
What a cute belly! I know it doesn't feel little, but especially considering you've had 3 kids already, well you look GREAT! But you have got to be sick of people telling you you don't look that pregnant... or else that pic is not recent.
What a wonderful shot!!!!And girl you look fab!!! If every woman COULD look that great they would all want to have babies...The first time I ever thought a woman looks extra great preggers....
