not me's

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.


a few things i definitely DID NOT do this last week...

i DID NOT drive 30 minutes in the car in utter silence to meet with my super fab friend, karen to have a diet coke, cookie and pray with her!

i also DID NOT get kicked out of panera over the intercom with my friend, karen, because apparently we were intruding on their closing early. the intercom was NOT something like this: "to the last 2 customers, we are wanting to close. if you would like anything further, come tot he register. otherwise, we will be locking the doors in 15 minutes." that totally DID NOT happen.

my brookie DID NOT tell my mom that she needed to have a few more of her own kids because she loves her grandbabies too much!

i DID NOT hide my face in uber laugher on monday nights bible reading time when hubs asked the kiddos what god changed abrahms name to and brooke answered, "jesus". then the follow up question...what was abraham's wife name..."mary". seriously kids!

i DID NOT get really sad inside when the ortho surgeon got "that look" on his face after doing the exam on paige's shoulder after weeks of utter pain.

i DID NOT feel old when my baby turned one year old...and really glad at the same time!
i DID NOT buy my sofie a bday hat and pink cruiser car for her bday bc i had to have it!

i DID NOT eat chill fritos for dinner...and sweet tea.

i DID NOT dream that hubs bought a pair of heelies (tennis shoes with wheels in the soles) and was skating around (again in my dreams) and i was irritated not by the fact that he had heelies, but that he bought white and not black. {i blame the chili fritos}

join the confession fun...i promise you that all the cool peeps are doing it!
head on over to mck momma's place

Happy birthday, Sofie!

I cannot believe that Panera used the intercom for just the two of you. Um, have you heard of just asking someone personally?
He & Me + 3 said…
You are so funny. The heelies was hysterical. I can't believe they intercomed you instead of coming to the table...that is so funny.

New to your blog... just thought it would be interesting to read about a mom of four GIRLS since I'm a mom of four BOYS. The girls in their tutus gave me my girlie fix... Too cute! And I have to say I LOVE the pink cruiser!

Meredith said…
Seriously??? You did not get kicked out?? That's some amazing customer service they have there. And I love that you had chili fritos for dinner. Made me feel like I wasn't alone in my food choices this week...
Carrie said…
Chili Fritos? As in Chili Cheese Fritos or as in Fritos covered in Chili and Cheese?

Either way--YUM! I'm getting indigestion just thinking about it!
Kacey said…
The Chilli Fritos woud have went well with the 3 Muskateers that I did not eat for dinner Saturday night.

What a pretty cake Miss Sofie had! And Brookie is just too darn cute!
Aileigh said…
Great Not Me!'s Happy Birthday to Miss Sofie! :)
Lindsay said…
Ha! I suppose there are worse things than being kicked out of a Panera! I bet Paige got a kick out of the fact that you got kicked out of somewhere anyway. :-)
I do not out for diet coke and cookies either and those guys at Panera need to chill...Happy NMM
:-)

random acts...GNO

over at GNO, there's a few of us who decided to challenge ourselves last week to perform a random act of kindness.   i talked with my girls and hubs about what we could do... we reserve some funds each month out of our giving to put towards a current or urgent need that we find.  i think it's important to let the kids see how we give as family...and they should be part of that decision too . as we were talking, and eating chinese...come on, you know there would be eating...i open my fortune cookie.  and this is it!! i was out getting a few minutes of alone time and decided to pay hubs forward by getting jiffy lube to do the oil change.  while i was there, i remembered how hard it was being a single mom.  i remembered that the little things, like oil changes, suddenly became bigger things and honestly, more expensive things.  *light bulb!!!* thomas rang me up for my oil change and asked if they had any scheduled appointments that i could pay for.  he looked at me a little odd...

sadness

on the way home from DD {{bc apparently there was NO preschool today for jk...it's no prob, really...we just rushed around and scrambled and got in the car and then when we got there and there was no school...well, there were tears...thus DD}} , there came a moment of sincere sadness in my heart. jk: " mommy, i want to look like brookie" "why sweetie? you are the perfect jada" jk: "i don't like my brown skin. i want peach skin like brookie" i just sank. does that not make ur heart want to break? a 3 yo is struggling already with her skin being different. then, this happened: brooke: "jada, god made you and he loves you. he does it all right the very first time" then, i think my heart grew three sizes . jada threw a big smile up on her face and said, "ok. god loves me" now, if we all could just do that. god loves us...he doesn't make mistakes...he makes perfect works of art. sometimes there are scratches in the art.

tuesday tribute---for tuesday

go blog yourself has been on my reading list for quite sometime...and so i really came to love little tuesday whitt and her whole sweet fam and became involved in praying for them in tuesday's battle with that stinky neuroblastoma . tuesday's parents are totally amazing...they inspire me! although tuesday went to play with jesus not so long ago, there have been so many people that are changed because of the courage and strength and honesty of the whitt family. on the day of celebration of tuesday's life, a number of folks who couldn't make it out to the funeral, took their kids on a 'wagie ride', which was one of tuesday's fav things. we all posted up our pics...shared our experiences with each other...and hugged our kiddos a little tighter. my kiddos wagie ride is here . from that precious little tuesday and her honorary wagie ride, a blog spawned...of course...and it is dedicated to nothing more than, in their words, "to keep track of lives touc
