what.a.week.

first of all, i now know for SURE that i cannot live far from my mom. she was in california for 7 days and i missed her...A LOT. like...A LOT. i didnt realize how much i think about her during the day! i wanted to call, text or go see her constantly. yes, i'm 34. so?!

it's probably been 3 weeks since i slept through the night without waking up. maybe a month. that is annoying. i am ready for a solid night of rest. i can't even blame gabe. it's just me! i wake up. i can kinda blame jay. he's been a NUT lately - snoring, stealing my covers & pillow, pushing me almost off the bed. ol punk.

i love him though.

i dont mean to talk ugly about gabe. but he's been somewhat WHACK lately. he's teething, and he doesnt appreciate it. i know it hurts but dang - he's opinionated. we'll leave that at that :)

he is getting bigger and much more talkative. sometimes i know what he is saying. other times i wish i knew b/c he is passionate about whatever is on his mind! it is too cute.

sometimes i can tell my the tone of his words. does that make sense?! like i can tell when he's attempting to say "i love you" or "i dont know"  its cute.

his favorite songs are the alphabet, deep and wide, itsy bitsy spider and old mcdonald.

sometimes when he's just playing in his room you'll hear him sing "eei eei ohhhh." i love it.

jay just sent me an email about pastors wives. it was pretty interesting. i'm probably the worlds WORST pastors wife.

here are some reasons why...
- i am NOT patient after church. seriously folks, you know Dr. KEEFEE is going to preach until 12:45 and who isn't starving by then...?!!!  then you want to talk to jay for 10 mins????? really?! let's just talk about the reasons why that's not ok....

    1. jay is half asleep. he doesn't have a clue what you are talking about, i promise. you might as well
        email him or call him later in the week. (just being honest.)
   2. i get grumpy when i am hungry. and by 1pm i am HANGRY (hungry + angry)
   3. do you see my child? yes he's knocking over communion, unplugging amps, and playing drums. it  
       is time to GO!

i remember Pam Cowart telling me that i get an extra bedroom in my mansion in Heaven for every 5 minutes i have to wait on jay after church on sunday. my mansion is HUUUUUUUUGE.

i will say that i VERY MUCH appreciate that CCC doesnt expect anything of me simply b/c i am married to jay. Pam told me that too when jay and i got engaged. she said that being his wife doesn't mean i have to be at CCC every time something is going on, i'm not expected to be or do anything. i love that. thank you KEEFEE!!!

i know that all of those things are selfish. which is why my mansion in Heaven really wont be large. i've probably knocked that mess down to a tent by this point with my attitude. a tent with holes in it, no sleeping bag, and rocks underneath.

my mom did that junk right. she just never rode with my dad to church. smart woman. i have quit waiting most sundays. it tends to be counterproductive. i forget everything i learned in the sermon.

i think Dr. Keefee is absolutely brilliant.

almost every night i trip on a toy on my way to the kitchen. of course i'm heading for a snack. what else am i supposed to do at 2am? i eat. and watch whatever is playing on USA or TNT most nights. i love murder shows.

i told madison this morning that i am a little nervous about another child. DONT get all excited. we arent even in the process yet. i know that G would LOVE a sibling. i want him to have a sibling. i LOVE having a brother and can't imagine life without him. i want that for gabe. but wow, we are already busy as mess and we only have one child. i dont know how people do it. that being said, we are praying. you can pray with us. pray that God will show us exactly what HE desires. that He'll provide financially (LAWD) and give us His wisdom on which direction to go with adoption.

do i say too much? wonder if its ok that i just blogged that.

ps - when you pray, ask God to tell Jay. he tends to hear from God better than i do. probably b/c i'm a brat. (remember church?)

i think jay and i are going to FINALLY go to a braves game next week. YAYYYYYY.

i'll wrap this up with some random thoughts:  
- lizzie and ben are getting married tomorrow. AHHHHHHHHH.
- i  could live in california.
- no offense but there are places i wouldn't want to live:  dothan al being my top choice. yuck.
- its supposed to feel like 105 today. gross.
- i want to ask God why we had to have such bad humidity and heat. i know there's a reason like scientifically. but He's God. he could've made science different. (see, i am a brat.)
- those watermelon oreos look nasty.
- dipping an oreo in peanut butter is YUMMY.
- i wore makeup like 3 days this week. whaaaaaaaaat?!
- i dont understand what people do when they go "swimming." i get swimming laps. but just to go to the pool. i run out of things to do after i go under and get fully wet. unless someone starts a game of categories. but i freak myself out i almost drown trying to get across.
- one day this week jay had SEVEN pairs of shoes out around the house. i told him i was taking them to vapor if he didnt put them away. he did :)
- i love artichokes.
- i also love sundried tomatoes, sweet potato skins and onions.
- i dont understand how people allow animals to sit on their furniture or sleep in their beds.

that is all.
