"swimming on you"

Have I EVER heard those words before?? Referring to clothing? NO. Until today!

Jody, Mikayla and I (and little Joseph, of course) went to pick out our son's coming home outfit, which he will, Lord willing, be wearing in about 19 weeks. :) So, we finally decided on one (SO CUTE!) and then went to the men's section to pick out a red shirt for Jody. (We're planning on having a family pic done soon and we want to all be wearing red shirts and jeans.)

After we found Jody's shirt, we headed to the catalog section to order my red shirt to match. The sales lady tried to help us find the red color red for the particular shirt I wanted. I then said that I wasn't sure whether or not to get a large or xlarge. She then looked at me, said I was "small boned" (WHAT???) like her daughter and the xlarge would be "swimming" on me. NEVER have I heard those words. It was a hoot. Especially being 21 weeks pregnant and feeling (and looking) quite mooshy (is that a word?). Crazy stuff tonight in JCPenney, I tell you. ;)

As you can see, I didn't stay home all day. I did wait to leave the house 'til Jody got home. I had a wonderfully relaxing day at home with my girl. And just to throw this in, I did NOT get the MAYBEs done that I'd listed in my previous post. oh well. good night!

(My keyboard is DIRTY!) Gotta love a compliment! My favorite was when someone mistook Patrick for my husband. How flattering was THAT! Well, Miss Flaca, enjoyed your visit. Love to the babies and Joses.

Well, since it's apparant that no one ever comments on your blog (yes, that was sarcasm) I guess I will. :) LOVE you. Thanks for having me over Thursday night.. our short visit Friday.. and fun today. Sorry it wasn't the most peaceful day for you.. but in the end, isn't it worth it? I think it is, although I've never been mad at Mikayla in her life.. and doubt I ever will be. Unless she gets married before me. Then.. well then I might be a little mad. :) LOVIES.

And Grace, it wasn't the best I've seen, but I'll take it.. anytime I can see House, I'm content.. and he played the guitar, which made me quite giddy. :) It was grrrreat seeing you Ledbetters today. I'm so glad that Ian will never forget me.. what a comfort! :)
