Top Reasons For Being A Bummer Of A Blogger



The house. We are in the final stages of finishing our new home and it has monopolized way too much of my time. This home would have been a much better choice if I had no babies, wasn't pregnant, and was 50.
If you are interested in seeing the recent progress of the home, click here.







Abram has learned to throw temper tantrums. I'll just leave it at that.



Because of the above two reasons, I have felt the need to spend any extra free time with these two instead of parked in front of a computer.



And lastly, I'm brewing something; and this thing has taken possession of me, body and soul. Notice the excruciatingly large bags under my eyes. I'm not kidding when I say that my physical resources are exhausted by noon.

For all of you who don't know, the boy who turned into a hermaphrodite has now been confirmed to be a girl. I know because the perinatologist confirmed that the penis is now gone.

I will try to be a better blogger, but I can't promise anything. I do read you and will endeavor to leave more comments.

One more thing...



the kitchen faucet showed up with the French words for hot and cold instead of English on the handles. Will you think I am less pretentious if I purposely (of course purposely, I would never mispronounce anything) mispronounce froid and chaud?

You are not a bummer blogger at all! When I see that there is a new post on "The 'G' Train," though, I do look forward to reading it.
I'm sorry that your litte Abram has learned how to perform temper tantrums. But I am honestly relieved that my little guy isn't the only one. It's driving me NUTS!

Your kitchen looks FAB. So do you. You make pregnant look great. Congratulations on the now girl. It's fun when you already have one of each, then it doesn't seem to matter as much.

Oh, too funny about the faucets. Just pretend you planned it that way. Let people think you are pretentious. Could be fun.

And your comment on my blog about the bishopric member? OH.MY.GOODNESS, I would die. This was embarrassing enough, and it was a stranger.

Lindz said...

Exciting about the home. It is so beautiful! Lex has also started throwing tantrums. What do we do? Is is just a stage or is he just a brat? Who knows!

Your family room light wasn't in when I was there last. It looks exciting and not a thing like Brad. I love the eclectic look the house is beginning to manifest.

You guys have done real well... I love it all.

1.) The house looks amazing.

2.) The belly looks amazing (adorable amazing)

3.) You have one talented temper thrower on your hands.

4.) Mispronounce and tell people you purposefully ordered the faucets to be French--let them puzzle at the conundrum.

I think you've got a couple of spam comments here, Martha.

You and your kitchen do look marvelous! It seems appropriate that you would have french faucets, btw.

I am not pregnant, I only have two children and I am not building a house. My excuse for being a bummer of a blogger is that I think I am a little boring. Oh well.

The house looks great. And congratulations on the disappearing penis. Girls are great!
