Another day, another dollar...

I know completely what that phrase means now!! It's just another day, earning another dollar...but I will enjoy it! Every minute! That's my pep talk for today, since I will be working ALL day! I have the two boys this week again, 8:20-4pm. Then I will go waitress at the Brass Rail from 5pm-10pm!

I have given away my Saturday shifts at the Rail because Tom got a new job as a cook at this cute yet stylish new restaurant, Victory 44, and so he is now working Saturday nights. Luckily, I feel very good about giving up my "money making" night because I used to be the one that needed the dough, but now one of the girls that fills in lost her regular job, and now needs more hours at the Rail. God is good, isn't he?!!!!!!!!!! What timing...

So, I'll try and keep my Wednesday and every other Thursday, we'll just see how it all pans out.

As for other random news, I am helping with the planning of a free for all clothing give away at our church, First Baptist on May 9th. People can donate their clothing and baby accessories on May 8th from 9-11am and 4-6pm. It's clothing for the whole family that is needed, plus baby toys and furniture. I think it is going to be amazing, yet we still need volunteers AND donations!!! So, if you're around, I'll take your help, or donated items!!!

Have I told you lately too, that I have many preggo friends right now? Well...I do! I am so happy for each and every one of them. Being pregnant was one of my most favorite and memorable things I have ever been able to do, and the one thing in life I am most proud of myself for! Sometimes I am sad that we are done making our little family, but most days I think to myself how crazy I would be to do it all over again! I am so looking forward to our moving on with the family we have created together and start making some amazing memories of camping trips, birthday parties, parks, vacations, field trips, and well, the list is endless right?!!

Although, with everything that we have to be thankful for, we are going through a big transition in our life, and I would appreciate any prayers sent our way...like to sell our truck, financial concerns, and peace of mind that we are on the path that God has in mind for us! I think we are on the right track...with a few loose ends!!

Well, as you can tell, I have a lot on my mind these days...I could probably keep writing, but, I am watching kids today! So I should probably act like it!

May you all have a very blessed day! Really, Truly!!!

There are two kinds of people: Part Two - The non-movers

Coffee cup in one hand, veggie/fruit smoothie in the other. No seriously, that's what I have on each side of me as I write. I'm smiling because of how funny this is, as it seems to also relate to this conundrum of a topic before us. There are two kinds of people, and there are definitely two kinds of beverages.  My caffeinated beverage on my left brings me a one sided joy that I cannot even begin to detail. I love my coffee. And I really do think it loves me back. At least for a while. As I peer out of the corner of my eye to the right, I see the greenish grainy drink to my right. Today the fennel seeds in it do not make it seem as dirty  I mean, like I just gathered them from the dirt without rinsing and sprinkled them in there kind of dirty. Maybe it was the splash of OJ I decided to add to it this morning. Now, I know that this drink loves me. It is good for many aspects of my life. Health, energy, sustenance, power. But I do not enjoy it as much. When I make my ...

Round two!

I got to come home for a little bit and play with Brady and Halle, give them a bath (me a shower) and then laid them down for a nap. I took some ibuprofen, I think I have an overdose of a "caffeine, lack of sleep, still wearing my contacts" headache! So now I am going to try and nap a little and then it's back to the hospital with Shelby for round two of SLUMBER PARTY AT THE HOSPITAL WITH A SICK BABY! Not worthy of all caps joy, but I'm trying to be optimistic about it all! So we had a rough night last night, she didn't sleep for a full hour from 9-1am, then she had a bit of an issue with her nebulizer treatment (meaning she didn't like it) and then her IV came out. Yadda yadda. Finally at 3 am she was ready to settle down and then she slept till 7am. On my chest. Luckily I was tired enough to get most of that sleep as well, until about 6:30ish. I just feel so bad for her! I felt bad for me a little too about 1:00 am. I wanted to just cry my eyes out from bein...

Who did we welcome home TODAY????

Shelby Capri Bergman 6 lbs. 5 oz. , 19.5 inches long May 30th, 2008 10:52 pm I just want you all to know that everything went picture perfect. She's beautiful, she's healthy and she's very content. I don't have a ton of pictures yet, my mom took pictures during delivery and I took some today when we got home, but since we don't have internet at home now, it will be slow coming! I had my membranes stripped at 9:45 am on Friday. Afterwards, Tom and I went to Walmart, Applebees's, my sister's classroom to help move some stuff (I supervised... I was a little sore), and then home. I took a nap and Tom started getting ready for supper. His 4 hour long, grilled ribs...and that is how the story begins! So we keep joking that I am going to go during his first trial run with the ribs. This starts at around 3:30 pm. Then, we run out of propane and start all over a...
