preggers DRAMA

BEST. WEEKEND. EVER.

Through a diner party! Cooked a bumload of yummies for some of our CCFs and it was a total blast! Literally couldn't of been awesomer! Someone emailed me the Rio recipe which (of course) I made w/o even rilly trying and not to brag but everyone said mine was better which was totally true! BAAAA! Anyways, we took like a gimungous number of pics of ourselves being hardcore and playing Rock Band and everything was ridiculously awesome untill...

....


...I started asking this other preggo chica there if she was nervy about labor. Not to be rude but she was seriously HUGE so I figured she was due like next week, only suprise, we're the same amount of weeks.


Um, awkward. Not to mention SAD.


We're way close of friends but things got a little weird when I said next time I'd make us sushi (which I do way well, but I didn't say that) and she said "Um, I don't know if you know this but your not supposed to eat sushi while you're preggo." Thanks, downer. So I said "Um, I don't know if you know this but your not supposed to be so huge." I smiled after so she knew not to take it personal, but she still bawled her head off and I about died.

I meant it nice, you guys!! Didn't mean it RUDE. She's super darling (at least, she use to be) and we're way close so I was suprised she got so ticked. But, it worked out good bc I was able to use my patient response to her lame preggo hormone overreaction as an example of forgiveness, which "just so happened" was the YW lesson! SO greatful for the empathy I was able to take away from that experience. I mean, can't rilly blame her for crying. Guess it isn't very fair for her since she's double my bigness and I'm double her cuteness.

nickname my darling feti, PLZ!

Hellllp! I'm busy having the best weekend of my LIFE (we couldn't be happier) but somethings missing and that something is...

...

NICKNAMES FOR THE FETI! Seriously guys, what do I call 'em while there still inside? Snookums and Sugie? Bean and Other Bean? Brandon and Brenda? Hubba and Bubba? Jimmy and Pam? Pumkin and Pumkin?? Does it need to rhyme or is starting with the same letter enough?? Ack! Hard deciding but these cuties need the BEST NICKNAME OF ANY FETI EVER. I keep thinking of one name but then can't think of another that goes with. Sooooo greatful to have e-BFFs to turn to. Winner can be my doola!

J/K :)

Economic Roler Coaster!!

Rather not think about bummers BUT since tons of my e-BFFs are worried AND all my girls in the school wives club look to me as there leader, here goes...


All anyone's talking about these days is bell-outs! PUKE!


If your bummed about Wall Street and the feds spending a bumload of cash on ugly houses or whatever (details weird me out), never fear, TAMN is here! For an immediate short-term fix, trust me, a carb fest will help a ton. Seriously, everyone just relax and scarf some roles and pasta. In an emergency, come over to my place and will bust into my year's supply of Orbitz, and if you can't afford a pedi we'll get the MiaMaids on it stat. Longer term, CHILL OUT! The economy binged and now it's just gotta purge. Trust me...our houses and handbags'll be bigger and better than ever in zero time. How does TAMNers know this, you ask???


Guys, the same thing totally happened to Britney.


It's like a modern-day pride cycle, and those ALWAYS work out well. Remember how Brit was awesome and hot with a rockin' bod and cute boys loved her, then all of a sudden she was a fat druggie hag clawing at camras and her cutie kids had to go with creepy thugged-out K-Fed while she was in germy downer rehab? Remember how all the quote-un-quote experts said her carreer was over, they said she'd totally crashed and burned and there was no hope and the years of riotis living had caught up with her, end of story??


YOU GUYS! IT'S JUST LIKE THE ECONOMIES!


All the so-called experts are flipping out, shrieking "It's gonna be worse than the Great Depression!" (which honestly, would it be that bad?? Black and white is cool, everyone was super skinny back then AND raggy = vintage = HOT so I say, bring it! My forlorn slash hungry pout is one of my cutest). Anyways, everyone saying the economies are toast is just like when everyone said fatty Brit was here to stay. Guess what, America!? Haters were wrong! Did you SEE all those VMAs and how she's hot again??? Have you LOOKED at the top 10 on itunes lately?? Just like Britney, the econ's gonna come back hotter than EVER. So ok, maybe we as a nation have to go through our own custody probs, psychyatric evals, bad slash crazy hairdos, etc., but then the USA will have its own economic version of BRITNEY IS FREAKING BACK!

Our economy now:

Our economy soon:

to my gorgeous feti, w/ a bumload of luv

October 7, 2008


My little darling shrimp-size feti,


Hi babies! Just want you guys to know, in case you read this blog, that we are way, way STOKED for your lifes! Seems like just yesterday we felt deep in our hearts that you were planted as luscious future feti plants in my fertile wombgarden with daddy's resilient seed. Can't believe only 188 more days til I birth you! Nobody can believe there're two of you bc I am still SUPER skinny but I don't make a big deal about how hot my hot bod is so as not to make others covetis but seriously, I look great, even at 13 weeks, not whaley like most of my preggo friends. Seriously, fetuses, want you to have it better than I ever did so I'm working way hard to make sure you ALWAYS, no matter what, have the hottest mom out of any of your classmates. Sometimes I hum Saturday's Warrior's "Pulling together we can work it out" as a little lullabye in case your singing along in heav'n. I've also been plugging my iphone's headphones into my belly button and playing Beethoven, Baby Einstein, Teach Yourself Chinese and Michael McLean to help excelerate your geniuses.


Anyways, we don't yet know if you'll be little boys or little girls or both (like one of each, NOT like hermfrodiet, sick, you will DEFINATELY not be gross slash weirdos)!! We're going to the mall to find out soon! But if your girls you'll be cutest princesses ever and if your boys you'll be total studs. Either way you'll be besties so thanx a TON for choosing our fam. Can't wait for you to get out so I can squeeze you so hard (in a loving way) and pierce your ears/glue bows on your head or surround you with sports related objects.


Love always,
Mommers

Anyways, seriously the mish reunion was the best ever. Not only was I DEFIANTLY the hottest wife, AND not only did we show everyone our laminated 7-D ultrasounds, AND not only did I see JJWT's old comp Johnson who wrote me for like 15 months and he's BALD now (lol), AND not only did I take tons of notes on stuff the prez's wife did slash said slash wore so I'll be ready when the time comes, but the prez took JJWT aside and told him he was always his very fave!! BAAA! JJWT told me not to tell but whatever, it was too awesome to keep it a secret...just don't tell anyone else kay? Guess this means we'll be back in Brasilia in 5 to 10 if you know what I mean. Gotta go run like forty errands so I'll tell you more later about Sat's GNO and the rest of conf and how I wasn't really listening during conf but then got a text telling me a couple speakers gave us church-texters a shout-out which is awesome! BAAA!! I've been saying it's cool since before texts even started existing so I'm glad some big-deals finally agree. Love you!

quote on quote Grandma

Holy cow guys, thanx for all the Ruth advice!! I am the luckiest girl in the world I swear! Not like bee or eff or H or anything, but swear like, I totally mean what I say when I say that I am the luckiest girl!! Not only do I have two hot twin feti, the best hubby ever and just an all-around way blessed life, but I also have the opp to learn a ton of patience with this whole Ruth marriage thing!! Definately have no attention of leaving the poor yawner alone to fester in her frumpy. Totally just have to sit Ruth down, take her under my proverbrial wing and make her see eyeliner to eyeliner with me on how to have a non-lame-O life. It's not that she's BAD purr-say, just that she's BORING. Better get that Subaru on KSL classifieds stat...it's Escalade time!! Your welcome in advance, future friend! Totally dredding that convo but it's GOTTA happen you guys.

Reader Motorcycle Grandma brought up this important question: "When your hot fetus starts talking at a real early age like five months, what is he/she going to call yours and JJWT's parents? Something really cute and special, I hope, since they will be the most blessed grandparents in the world. "

NO KIDDING!!!

i GOTTA talk to Ruth, if only bc we have to agree on what our kids are gonna call JJWT's parents!! Better choose something soon for all the letters and cards we'll write pretending they're from our unborn children, not to mention all the paint your own pottery stuff we're into!! Seriously, let's figure this out. What do YOU call your cute grandparents? What should we call JJWT and me's parents??!? It's gotta be young, hip, darling, and most importantly look ridiculously DARLING on a custom stamp for stampin.
