WARNING: THIS BLOG ENTRY IS PRETTY MUCH ABOUT NONSENSE.
Last Night I was watching Be My Valentine Charlie Brown, when it hit me. This kid is really really depressed. I don't know why I never realized or noticed before, but I do now. While I was thinking about that I kept thinking that once he hits puberty it would probably get worse and worse, and if he didn't get professional help he might do something terrible to himself. Don't know why I'm overanalysing a cartoon, but whatever.
So, Happy Valentines Day! I hate getting the girls candy because Alyssa is so prone to getting cavities. So, this year I made the kids coloring books. Nothing too big just coloring pages I printed off the internet and bound together with staples. Micah got a My Little Pony book and Alyssa got a Princess and The Frog book. In addition to that I made them each a Crayola activity book, Disney Princess book, and a Disney Fairies book. They really love them and are coloring at the moment which makes me happy that at the moment I can make them happy with things that hardly cost anything.
Last night I made soup again! I love it when we have chicken or turkey. Then I can use the bones to make a stock and have homemade soup the next day. I love love love homemade chicken/turkey noodle soup. Plus it's so easy to make. Takes a couple hours, but not labor intense at all.
I have been having crazy "pregnant" (not really sure if it's because I'm prego or I have a messed up subconscience mind) dreams. It seems like every night I dream about killing somebody (never anyone I know or even met), or watching someone be killed. They are all so vivid too. I wish it would stop because it's really creeping me out. Also, last night I dreamt that I could feel my baby kicking, which is bizare because it's a seasame seed. My friend Tiarra was there and I kept telling her the baby was kicking and for her to feel, but she didn't believe me because the baby would stop when she felt for it.

Our Little Seasame Seed
We really should stop calling the baby a he until we know for sure. I don't remember if we did that with Micah too or not, probably. We were pretty sure she was going to be a boy.
Deep in your uterus your embryo is growing at a furious pace. At this point, he's about the size of a sesame seed, and he looks more like a tiny tadpole than a human. He's now made up of three layers — the ectoderm, the mesoderm, and the endoderm — which will later form all of his organs and tissues. The neural tube — from which your baby's brain, spinal cord, nerves, and backbone will sprout — is starting to develop in the top layer, called the ectoderm. This layer will also give rise to his skin, hair, nails, mammary and sweat glands, and tooth enamel. His heart and circulatory system begin to form in the middle layer, or mesoderm. (This week, in fact, his tiny heart begins to divide into chambers and beat and pump blood.) The mesoderm will also form your baby's muscles, cartilage, bone, and subcutaneous (under skin) tissue. The third layer, or endoderm, will house his lungs, intestines, and rudimentary urinary system, as well as his thyroid, liver, and pancreas. In the meantime, the primitive placenta and umbilical cord, which deliver nourishment and oxygen to your baby, are already on the job.

When a Mommy and Daddy love each other...
Today I got my hair cut! I mean really got my hair cut. It was pretty much down to my butt and now it's up to my shoulders. I also got to sleep in until 9 this morning! The girls usually wake up around 8 and come in and wake me up, but today (I only had Micah since Alyssa slept over at Nana's house) Micah came in at 9 letting me know she wanted to watch tv downstairs. I'm not sure if she had been up earlier than that playing in her room or had just woken up.
So, Zachary and I have been talking about having a baby for a long time now and I told him that once I was out of my birth control I would not refill it and we would try. Our first month wasn't so good. I thought that I was pregnant because a had a period that was 2 weeks late. I kind of felt that I wasn't pregnant, but I couldn't understand why I hadn't had my period. Anyways this past week or so I could tell there was something different with my body. IDK, I guess I could just feel the little spirit growing inside me, and Zachary could too. Last night he kept telling me that he could feel a baby (?????).
So, I went to the drugstore today and picked up a test assuming it was going to be negative again and after I turned around from washing my hands there were 2 lines this time. I jumped up and down and was screaming for joy!
J/K 4 Week pregnant. Due date is October 9th

Wouldn't It Be Nice
I picked up my sewing machine from my parent's house last night! Yay! It's been so long since I've sewn. I have a ton of projects to do.
1. Plastic grocery bag holders (one for the kitchen the other for a nursery for diapers. No baby yet, but hopefully soon)
2. Cute little coasters
3. Placemats
4. A bag for Micah and Alyssa each
5. Snuggies!
Now all I need is the time to do it all.
How I wish I was a stay-at-home mom again. It would be nice to have a clean house everyday again.

Better Late Than Never
Alyssa was pretending the bathtub was her stage and was practicing her "Jingle Jam" song before school.
If you can't tell she is singing "I Want a Hippopotumus for Christmas"
Of course Micah didn't want to be left out. So, once Alyssa hopped down from the tub, Micah jumped up and started singing too.
I'm not sure, but I think Micah is trying to sing Jingle Bells.

Micah-Doodle
Today Micah learned how to wink! She has also become VERY independent. Everytime I try to help her put on her footie jammies I get yelled at, "No! I can do it!"

Oh That Darn Wii!
So here I am just sitting up waiting for Zachary to finish playing some WWE game on the Wii, when I thought about some of my favorite things that I want to share.
I know that I go on about how I love coupons. Alyssa even knows. Every time I say I have a coupon or even mention coupons, she tells whoever else is with us that her mommy loves coupons. I think that everyone should know about how to use them effectively to save as much money as possible. I was introduced to sheshopssmart.blogspot.com by my co-worker Dusty, and I am so grateful to her for telling me about the site and how to get started with the coupons. Even though Zachary doesn't think so, I know I have saved us tons of money and built up our food storage.
BeautiControl is kind of like Mary Kay, only a bit different. One of my highschool friends Janalynn had a party at her house and I really didn't know what to expect. They did hand treatments, facials, lip exfoliations, and foot detox treatments. I loved it. It made my hands, face, and feet so soft. I got the Skinlogics Acne line, since I am constantly battling acne rrrrrr, and I love it. Pretty much the same stuff as Mary Kay only it works much better (sorry mom). If you live in Utah you should definatly book a party, I did. Even though the treatments are wonderful, I think the parties can be more organized. At a Mary Kay party everyone has their own tray with their own facial stuff on it so that everyone can all do it together. Instead at the BeautiContol parties I have been to it's a one person at a time thing. That is the only thing that I think is a downside to BeautiControl.
I love the Shaytards! They are my favorite thing to watch on YouTube. Sometimes it's boring, but for the most part this family is crazy funny. Micah loves Babytard. Everytime she sees me on the computer, even if I'm not watching Shaytards, she says, "Wanna watch Babytard." Oh boy and once she sees Babytard she gets excited and says, "That's Babytard!" Zachary is the one who told me to first watch them. Just completely out of nowhere while he was at airborne school he texts me to look up shaytards on youtube. I really thought he might be crazy and if I looked it up it would be people acting retarded. IDK. It was a couple of days after that text that I actually looked it up, because Zachary was on the phone nagging me to check it out. He kept going on about how the little girls in it were like ours are in one of the videos, and they are. The two little girls were in their princess dresses watching Tinkerbell, just like ours do.
