I Hate Stupid People

So last night we decided to take the kids to Leo's to celebrate Daddy finishing up his interview process out at work. We pull up in the parking lot and I happen to look down and see that it is 17 degrees outside. As I opened the door to the van, I felt my nose hairs freeze together (don't you hate that). Then my eyes wonder to the car next to me and what do I find? Inside the car (mind you the car was not running therefore, no heater was on) was an infant seat, including infant, and a two-year old little girl. That's all!! No mom, dad, vicious dog, nothing. I was pissed!!! I might be a little over-sensitive to the treatment of children considering that we had a heck of a time getting pregnant to begin with and then had to let two babies go back home, but I think this would have upset me anyway. So we stand by the car for at least 5 minutes to see who would come out so I could give them a piece of my mind, and no one shows up. Finally I go inside and tell the owner what's going on, hoping he will call the police. Well, he apparently falls into that "stupid people" catergory himself. If I'd have had my cell phone, I would have just called the police myself. Anyway, he decides he needs to verify my story, so he goes outside to get the licence plate number (which I'd already given him). This ticked me off even more, so I went out to the parking lot and asked some random guy for his cell phone. I was on the phone with the police when the restaurant owner called the plate number over the PA system and the "Mother" came out to the car. Daddy gave her a few words (calmly) as she got in and drove away. I'm glad he was there because I had a few other words for her that probably wouldn't have gone over so well. Anyway, the police said they couldn't do anything about it unless they saw it themselves, so nothing happened to her. So I guess this post is a way to vent my frustrations. But don't you hate stupid people too?

It's a Boy!

We had our 20 week ultrasound and found out we are having a little boy. He looks very healthy. And apparently, he is not shy at all. The first thing the ultrasound tech said was, "Oh, it's a boy, and he's not shy about it." That's my boy!! We are very excited about it, although I'll admit, I was pulling for a girl. His due date is still June 7th. We have decided (for today) to name him Gabriel and call him Gabe. Thanks for your love and prayers, we appreciate all of you.

My Family

We haven't taken family pictures in so long it's ridiculous, so we went and had some done the other day. This isn't one of them (obviously), but I'll post them when I get them back. I think they turned out soooooo cute. But how could they not be cute with my kids in them--right?

We find out about the baby this Friday; I am extremely nervous. This is the appointment that all hell broke loose with the twins. I was only 18 weeks when we found out the gender of the twins. Week 21 is when my water broke with them, and that's how far along I am now. My anxiety level in growing a little, but I feel like things will be alright.

If the baby's movements now are any indication of how it will be like once it's born, I am in BIG trouble. This kid doesn't stop moving. The other day I was in the bathtub and I could actually see my stomach bulge up when it would kick---and we're only 21 weeks!!!!

Anyway, I'm glad to have my computer back and be back in touch with the world again!!

FINALLY!!!

Yeah, my computer is finally back from being repaired. I feel I've lost touch with the outside world for a few weeks. It's good to have it back, though. BTW: We've canceled our home phone, so if you need to get ahold of me, email or call my cell.
