1. I gave blood this week. (I promised myself to give blood at least 7 times in gratitude for all those who donated their blood for Ty’s 7 transfusions). When I was done, the nurse said something to me with a totally serious expression that left me baffled. “Raise your arm above your head and leave it there for 60 seconds or a minute – whichever comes first.” ?????? \ud83d\ude42 \ud83d\ude42 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
2. After Ty’s serious choking incident, it took him a few minutes to return to full alertness. When he did, he looked at the popcycle in the sink and said “No!”. Then looked at me and said “Anover snack?”<\/p>\n
3. Tanner has prayed and thanked the Lord for “Braxton Reese” everynight since she was born – all on his own. I asked him if he changed his mind and wanted a baby sister now. He said “yes”! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
4. Ann Coulter. Ann Coulter always makes me grin.<\/p>\n
5. Wondering how I got high-jacked into attending Cabela’s grand opening with the rest of Phoenix. (Cabela’s is an outdoor sportsmen warehouse. Tanner would never let me throw Cabela’s magaines away when they came in the mail and would carry them all around the house at 2 years of age.) Needless to say, we were there for 2 hours. Sheeesssh.<\/p>\n
6. The fact that Kristi Simpson posted a commented on my blog this week. Miracles never cease. Maybe Jodi will be next;)!<\/p>\n
7. Speaking of Kristi, Kristi and I enjoyed the Go Fish concert this week even more than our kids.<\/p>\n
8. I got most of my laundry done.<\/p>\n
9. Jim’s birthday is Monday and we are celebrating after church Sunday. He wanted Monkey Bread that I could buy in a package from Walmart instead of me making dessert. I have a busy day ahead so that made me smile.<\/p>\n
10. Tanner needs to sing his ABC’s perfectly in sync. In order to accomodate his tempo, he adds letters to keep on beat. THAT is cute. Ty sang the entire song this week dropping only a few letters. <\/p>\n
11. Ty saying “Aunt Sissy….ummm…..just mommy….”<\/p>\n
Why am I writing this right now? Simple. I am stalling. My mother in law is coming in from Chicago tomorrow and I am suppossed to be cleaning and doing my sunday school lessons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
