Supermarket

I think people should call grocery stores, supermarkets again. That's what my grandparents used to call them.
If you put that name with Walmart, you'd have to say "supermetropolis" because Walmart is not your ordinary grocery store.
Anyways, I was at walmart the other night doing my monthly grocery shopping with Bri.
And, taking a 6 year old to the grocery store can turn into a nightmare if you're not careful.
So, there we were, piling things into the cart that we didn't really need but she just HAD to have.
Then, she got mad at me and wouldn't tell me what she wanted for her school lunches. So, I just started putting whatever kind of lunchable I felt like into the cart.
Then, she needed some new socks but woudn't tell me what color she wanted. So, I had to guess, knowing that if she didn't like the color, she wouldn't wear any of them.
Then, she wanted to help me scan the food at the check out and I wanted to pack the bags in a particular way so I asked if she would scan them and hand them to me (knowing we would be standing there for 30 min)... then, she got mad at me again and wouldn't help at all.
So, after being at Walmart for an hour and half, finally getting the groceries into the car, smashed all into one lump, and Bri in the car, we were driving home.
She said, Mom... you know why I love you...
I thought to myself, I can't imagine what she was going to say.
She started listing what she loved about me...
That I take care of her
That I buy her food
That I pay for her school
That I bought her a house
That I buy her clothes
That I take her to cheerleading
That I take her to bible study
That I pray with her at night...
The list kept going on and on.

I was like, wow! That's alot of stuff to love about one person.
She said, "You're my favorite of all Mom's".
Lol, I was like, good, because you're stuck with me.

So, that made my horrific grocery store experience much better!

On a seperate note, I'm on the 4th book of Twilight.
I turned on my chi flatteing iron this morning to straighten Bri's hair and I reached down to the barrel to unwrap the cord, and burned my hand. That thing gets super hot!
Anyways, the first thing that crossed my mind (no joke) was, "I wonder if this is how Bella felt when she was morphing into a vampire!"
Haha
That's all for now

27 Weeks Pregnancy Update

27 weeks today. Is this the third trimester or not?!? Some websites say it is, some says 28 is. So, I'm not too sure. Weight Gain:  33.3 lbs total. Only half a pound of away from what I gained with Jamyson and I still have 13 weeks left (waaaahhhh.....) I feel huge. I am huge! It's harder to walk and my feet hurt now, lol. Exercise:  I'm still walking but I cut back last week and only did 14.7 miles. I broke the 200 miles for the year for the "run the year 2017"! However, the more I walk, the more I eat and the more weight I gain (eek)! Cravings/Diet:  I've been craving lemon lime gatorade. Weird right?! It's delicious. I've also been getting reece's blasts from Sonic. They are so good! I threw in a cooke dough blizzard from dairy queen. That was delicious and not helping with my weight gain. Morning Sickness: Still no morning sickness but I'm still taking 2 diclegis every night. Sleep:  Didn't nap as much last week. Just didn...

Our Experience with Covid 19

I'm writing to share our experience with Covid-19. With the reopening of the lockdown, many new cases are flooding the world. My husband is the Regional Sales Manager at Century 21 Judge Fite in Rockwall. He has been in real estate for the past seven years. He is an amazing realtor and even better manager. I am very proud of him and I stand behind him no matter what. Saturday July 5th is started feeling ill after a work out. He had recently joined Legends Fit in Rockwall and started a program where he had to lose 25lbs or 6.9% body fat in 6 weeks and he would get a free membership for the year. After 3 weeks and a very strict diet and workout, he had lost close to 20 lbs and 5.3% body fat. He started running a fever Saturday afternoon and felt very fatigued. No real respiratory symptoms and his pulse ox never dropped below 98 percent. His heart rate was double his resting heart rate. He tested on Monday morning and received word Tuesday around 5:30pm that he was pos...

Ashton's Birth Story-VBAC

I started this last pregnancy journey with the goal of finishing my second VBAC. Here's the story (So that I never forget any of my children's birth, I have documented each one's stories)... Around 4pm on Thursday August 1, 2019, I went into the hospital. I was having irregular contractions, dilated to 2 cm and 50% effaced. I was 39 weeks and 3 days pregnant.  Here is a photo: I am almost 6 feet tall and had gained nearly 50 lbs. Most of which I gained in the first and second trimester. I continued to workout this whole pregnancy in hopes that my body would bounce back quicker. Time will tell. So, my doctor came in around 5:30pm and said he was going to do the foley cervical dilation balloon again since that worked with Elizabeth. So, they inserted the foley balloon which is extremely painful because I have a tilted cervix which apparently hides behind my spine. He tried to do it with a tool and ended up having to do it manually with his hands.  Then, I ...
