Lunchtime @ Sonic with the family. (I had a coney dog, minus the chili, plus the mustard and onions… YUM!)
* I sent this from my phone!? I FINALLY got it to work!!? Yipee!? This can only mean good things, especially when the baby is born and we find ourselves without internet accesss (a theory I have, not a fact… yet.)
That’s what this child gets for being born into a paranoid family.? I’ve gotten into the habit of late of not wanting to get out bed in the morning until I feel some sort of response from the baby.? Most times, this isn’t hard at all to come by as this little one loves to wiggle around, especially when my bladder is full.? But this morning was one of those mornings when Junior decided he or she wanted to sleep in.? So I rolled over onto my back and then proceeded to poke and prod (none too lightly, either) various portions of my growing girth.
It only took a minute before I felt some small responding taps.? But maybe those taps were TOO small and I, not entirely awake yet, imagined them.? So I poked even harder in the spot that I thought I’d felt the taps.? I was rewarded with a resounding, belly-shaking KICK.? As if this child was saying, “I heard you the first five DOZEN times.? Now LEAVE ME ALONE!”
And as it always happens, the poor thing couldn’t get back to sleep and proceeded to bounce on my bladder until I got out of bed and got it some breakfast already.
So my question, does this qualify as child abuse?? Maybe what’s worse is I don’t really have any guilt about it at all. ;)

This is me. I'm a thirtysomething stay at home mom to three kids. For years I was a stay at home mom to one kid and trying very hard to have more. It took a LONG time (ie: 6 1/2 years), but finally Liam arrived and charmed us with his blue eyes and ginormous, round head. Then we got a shock: I was pregnant again and this time it was a GIRL. Our hearts and home are full at last and now that we're done having babies, we get to relax (snort) and watch them grow (not too fast now, you hear?). Thanks for coming by, feel free to dip into my archives, read my About and History pages (just don't do Jackson's Story without tissues!) and make yourself at home.
