- some solid time with elias and glory on sunday morning.
- hilarious house meeting on sunday night with all three girls. lots of pregnancy questions, talk about 7-eleven, and promises from the girls to "be really, really good this week".
- watching the bachelor with jess.
- monday, we were able to get one of our girls into a really great doctor's office, which is awesome. it was really sweet to see her treated well, and really come out of her shell some during the appointment, and generally in the house.
- our newest girl. i never really know what is okay to share, and what's not. but oh, do we have stories. let's just say, she is an endless source of good stories. AND she has never been to wendy's, taco bell, or subway.
- tuesday, i had a doctor's appointment. the lady i saw is one of the midwives that has worked with a few of our girls. during the appointment the following was said, "well, you need to go ahead and find mr. right, and start having babies, because you only have about 10 more really fertile years". listen, lady, i am surrounded by 'fertility' almost as much as you are, don't play, i get it.
- the pure excitement of postpartum roller skating, and trampoline jumping.
- dentist visit in little vietnam. really strange, and for some reason there were about 11 or 12 hole-in-the-wall dentist's offices within one block. very strange, and i watched mr. rogers (in vietnamese), and he sang this song (for some reason he switched to english for this part):
Some are fancy on the outside.
Some are fancy on the inside.
Everybody's fancy.
Everybody's fine.
Your body's fancy and so is mine.
Boys are boys from the beginning.
Girls are girls right from the start.
Everybody's fancy.
Everybody's fine.
Your body's fancy and so is mine.
Girls grow up to be the mommies.
Boys grow up be the daddies.
Everybody's fancy.
Everybody's fine.
Your body's fancy and so is mine.
I think you're a special person
And I like your ins and outsides.
Everbody's fancy.
Everybody's fine.
Your body's fancy and so is mine.
- my first ever trip to pf changs with jess and kal. it was exactly what i needed, and just really fun. love them. shout out to leigh and gray for the gift card!
- today, sitting here listening to our somali girl watching maury povich.
- catching up on lost, and hopefully the office and 30 rock sometime today!
- and it's valentine's day, and i'm not even a little bitter about it.
