Pregnancy Update
Today is November 11, 2006, which is day 229 of my pregnancy. I have 37 days to go until the due date! Wow! Eva and I are moving right along!! (Remember Eva, you can come out early! I’m thinking December 9th would be great!)
“The baby almost always settles it the mother’s pelvis in a head-down position, because the head is the heaviest part of a body and is better accommodated in the bottom contour of the uterus than in the top.” The Pregnancy Journal by A. Christine Harris, Ph.D.
That is actually under yesterday’s date, but it was more interesting than what was under today’s!
I hope and pray that you all will have a wonderful Thanksgiving time enoying family and friends. Take this time to reflect on what the Lord has done in your life this year and GIVE THANKS!!
(I’ve got 4 homemade pumpkin pies and 2 fruit salads to make tomorrow for Thanksgiving, so I probably won’t have time to post anything more until after the holiday weekend! But it’s not like I’ve been that regular anyway!!)

“The Greatest Interpretation of the 23rd Psalm”
My mom emailed this to me. So, I decided that you might enjoy it too!…
___________________________________________________________
In his beautiful book, “I Shall Not Want,” Robert Ketchum tells of a Sunday
School teacher who asked her group of children if anyone could quote the
entire 23rd Psalm. A golden-haired, four-and-a-half-year-old girl was among
those who raised their hands. A bit skeptical, the teacher asked if she
could really quote the entire psalm.
The little girl came to the front of the room, faced the class, made a perky
little bow, and said,
“The Lord is my shepherd, that’s all I want.”
She bowed again and went and sat down.
That may well be the greatest interpretation of the 23rd Psalm ever heard.

They say “Don’t cry over spilled milk”…
What about spilled hot chocolate?! =)
Tomorrow I will be one month away from having Eva Elizabeth. (We finally decided on a name!) OK…I know that December 8th isn’t my Dec. 28th due date. However, three weeks early is usually OK with the doctors. I’m praying for labor to start Dec. 8th for several reasons. One reason is that I really don’t want Eva to be born too close to Christmas. Another is that since Abbye was 7 lbs 13 oz and then Hannah came weighing 9 lbs 2 oz, I’m hoping not to have to push out (naturally, may I add!) a 10 lbs 7 oz baby!! I would love to try a smaller baby this time! =)
Anyway… Back to crying over spilled hot chocolate. Abbye had a doctor appointment this morning. Then I had some errands to run downtown. Since we just happened to be close to the newly opened bookstore and coffee shop, I decided to get a drink! Abbye asked if she could have some hot chocolate. I thought that would be fun to get a large and all share it after their nap. Well, Abbye kept insisting on holding it, since it was hers! No, that was not going to happen…You are little and it is big and very hot! However, I caved when we got home and let her carry it from the car to the kitchen table. I thought that she’s big enough, it’s not very far, it’ll be OK, it had a lid. But, I was wrong! She spilled it all when she didn’t raise it enough to set it on the table. The lid came off and it went all over the table, and floor, and wall, and chairs!! I was soooooooo frustrated and mad, more at myself than Abbye since I knew better! I got Abbye and Hannah down for a nap. They went right to sleep, which was a very smart move on their part (but I’m sure it has more to do with them being sick, since Abbye doesn’t even normally take a morning nap!)! Momma wasn’t happy!! Matt was coming home for lunch early since he went to work at 5:00 am. So, when he got home I was still cleaning the mess up and … crying! Yes, I was crying over spilled hot chocolate. I was crying because I knew better than to let her carry it. I was crying because I let her whining get to me. I was crying because here lately she seems to be whining a lot. I was crying because I paid good money for that wasted drink. I was crying because I’m tired. I was crying because I am sick. And probably that main reason why I was crying… because I’m pregnant and my emotions are in overdrive!! =)
Please keep me and my household in your prayers! Thanks!!

John Kerry Needs to Apologize
I thought you would be interested in this petition from GOP.com asking John Kerry to apologize. (I guess I wasn’t surprised he would make such a dumb comment. Thank the Lord that he’s not our President!)
