What Kind of Shoe Are You?

PRAISE REPORTS!

Fist off let me tell you how faithful the Lord is... He not only answers prayers but then he goes above and beyond what we can even think or imagine!

I had my baby doctor appointment today and Baby Noah has been healed from the Choroid Plexus Cysts that were on the ventricles of his brain! "They have disappeared" she said. Praise the Lord. The only thing that concerned them is that his left kidney is still enlarged so I have to go back for a third ultrasound in March. But I am believing that his kidney will be normal size by then so no worries!

Second Praise report is Mr. Clean received a letter from the State Police asking him to continue on towards employment with them. This means he moves on to the next level which is a series of tests on March 12th. He will have a physical fitness test, drug test, and a polygraph test. This testing will last 8 hours. Mr. Clean does not like taking tests so if you could please keep him in prayer during this time.

I also wanted to give you an idea of how great our God is. Mr. Clean took his State Police test and had an oral interview and from that was ranked 784 out of 1900 people from this area. This time around, they are only taking 100 men and women to move on to the next step so obviously he didn't make the cut. BUT then we received this packet offering him conditional employment pending him passing all the tests. Can I just WOW... that is a miracle to move 700 spots ahead of where he was. No man could have done that... It was a God move! And let me also add that if he is accepted and he becomes a State Trooper, I can be at home with my children! That is a passion of mine so this is huge for us.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MR. CLEAN

Mr. Clean turned 29 this morning and he wasn't too happy about it. I don't know why he doesn't like celebrating his own birthday... he celebrates mine the whole week. When it comes to his, he wants me not to make a big deal about it. So, I have agreed not to make a big deal this year but already warned him that next year is the big 3-0 and I will go all out for it. I guess me saying that triggered some excitement because he decided he wants a big buffet with a DJ and he wants to do the dollar dance like they do at weddings. He actually wants people to pay a dollar to dance with him. And I think he was serious because he didn't skip a beat, he just went on and on about the type of food and music and who we would invite and where would we have it, etc. This was at 7:00 this morning. I was sitting across from him thinking I must be dreaming but then I realized that I was awake and he really wants a reception for his 30th birthday. The next thought that crossed my mind was... who's side of the family is going to pay for this reception???? I think they will leave it up to me. Once is enough for them.

That is just one of the many reasons why I love Mr. Clean. He makes everyday an adventure and I can truly say that being married to him is not boring at all. In fact I've grown to love him more than I thought I ever could.

As for presents this year... Mr. Clean wanted new headlights for his car and new tires for his 18" rims. I say wanted but he actually needs this stuff to pass inspection this month. For fun gifts Laney Bug and Baby Noah got him a #1 Daddy mug, car wash stuff & band aids. If any of you really know Mr. Clean than you know he comes home with a new cut, scratch or bruise everyday and has to show me. He is quite proud of his battle wounds. And by battle wounds I mean wounds from power tools, lifting equipment or from just getting out of the car. That is the reason for the band aids. He is particular and prefers certain types of band aids that cost as much as a new pair of shoes for me.

Happy Birthday Mr. Clean! Thank you for being yourself and for loving me even though I am so difficult to love! Oh... and thank you for our 2 beautiful children, I really couldn't have done it without you! I Love you!

OUCH!

Ok, not to gross anyone out but I have a health/medical question.

I came home from work today and was changing into my comfies when I noticed a large mass of red bumps around my armpit. It's almost like the mass circles the pit. hee hee that sounds funny. They kind of look like pimples without the white head. And they are only on my right side.

I did try a new deodorant because my old deodorant was making my armpits itch. I go through that every time I'm pregnant for some reason. But if it was the new deodorant wouldn't it be on both sides? I am thinking that it has to be a chemical imbalance due to all the raging hormones. But if you can offer any advice I would love to hear it. Please tell me I am not the only freak with red bumps around her right armpit! hahaha

You're an American classic -- fast, strong, and bold. You're not snobby or pretentious, but you have what it takes to give anyone a run for their money.

The stomach bug got the Laney Bug

Well, I knew it was bound to happen sooner or later, Laney caught this stomach flu going around. Although there was no fever, she did have diarrhea and threw up quite a few times last evening into this morning. Needless to say, mommy is at home with her today.

She was so cute last night all cuddled up next to me. And even though we went through 4 outfits between the both of us it was worth being puked on just to hold her. This morning we were up at 7:30 am even though we went to bed at 3:30 am. But she was able to keep both food and water down! woo hoo.

Mr. Clean and I just finished sanitizing the entire house. We had to strip down Laney's room and wash everything we could, and we sprayed Lysol on everything we couldn't wash. Basically everything she or I touched was washed, scrubbed or thrown out.

Even though I am running on a few hours of sleep... my house looks fabulous. Thank you Mr. Clean!
