huh?

After church today we decided to go to Menards to pick up a few things. It was crazy busy and there were no parking spots at all. Duane mentioned it was a little crazy, and Dani said, "Ya, this is crazier than a washing machine!" That's now my new favorite saying.

Full of it

Danica is going to be quite the politician some day. My sweet little bullsh#*er said to me, "Mom, I love your outfit! You look really great!" I'm wearing baggy sweats and a nasty ripped t-shirt. I couldn't look worse if I tried!!!

On another note, I was pretty certain that with my winter coat on nobody could tell I'm pregnant. Not the case I guess! We were just in line at the grocery store and a man asked me when I'm due. About 20 people got in on the conversation... I guess baby bumps make people friendly!!

The past week

There has been little to post the past week or so. Tootsie has been sick again, so she's been pretty low-key. Here are just a couple fun tidbits:
Last week one evening while I was beached on the couch and Duane was on the computer, Danica had a little bathroom adventure. Duane must have heard some sloshing so he went to investigate. He found Danica in the bathroom (bare bummed with her pants at her ankles) with the plunger in the toilet just going to town sloshing it around. She had used too much toilet paper AGAIN and plugged the toilet. I appreciate her independence so much, but this may have gone a bit too far! She did it again today, but this time at least she yelled for me to come plunge the toilet... "Mommy, I used too much toilet paper again! The potty won't go down!!!"
Another potty story: A couple weeks ago she threw up in her room so we were chasing her around with a bucket for a couple days. Once in a while when she'd tell me she was going to "throw" I'd take her to the potty to do it in there (never happened). So now if she coughs a lot (or just whenever she thinks of it) she says, "Mommy,I'm sick, I'm gonna go throw in the potty." She goes and stands in front of the potty and looks at it for a while, then walks away.
Baby note: I started feeling our little peanut moving around in there! It sure makes it real to feel a live human being inside you trying to punch it's way out!

Mom and Dad WHO????

Dani, Hannah and Denae having fun at Grandma and Grandpa's.

Duane and I took a little trip to Bismarck to get some maternity shopping done for me last weekend. Dani got to spend the night with Grandma and Grandpa. And apparently we should've had her stay for a couple more days, because she was NOT thrilled about coming back home with us!!
We decided that since so much fun was had by all, that we'll need to do this more often!
