Genevieve Clair Lorraine will be 3 in 6.5 hours

At 6:13am March 14, 2007---she will officially be 3 years old. And she is being just as obnoxious and unsettled tonight as she was the night I went into labor. And I remember feeling like I. JUST. WANT. TO. SLEEP!!!! And I couldnt, because this little girl was pushing and prodding her way to being born. And now I can't because the same little girl is pushing and prodding and fighting her Daddy because she doesn't want to go to sleep! She is soooo sleepy, and sooooooooooooo stubborn! I'm just kind of in shock that she's so big! Where has the time gone?! And why is she so stinkin stubborn!! LOL
She has big plans for her birthday. We're hoping it doesn't rain tomorrow. She told me one week ago, that she wanted to go to the zoo, then eat lunch at chik-fil-a and have ice cream! So we're supposed to do just that with a few of her friends. She's so excited, and I'm sure that's one reason she doesn't want to go to sleep.
She's also having a "Princess Party" this weekend. :)
I'll make sure I post some pictures! :)

Crazy Me!!!

Funny category, huh? "Art and Photography" okay, it's 3:33 am!! I just got my belly-button peirced around 1 am and i guess i have some kind of weird adrenaline rush because of all the fun!! maybe i'm just nuts...anyway! We went out with Beth for her birthday, had lots of fun, took a few really cute pictures which I'll be posting here and there, then went to Trilogy because we had joked/talked some about getting piercings and tattoos and stuff and i have been wanting to do more lately....so i said lets go for it! Everyone was up to it. sooo in honor of Beth's birthday, I did something my dad will have a freaking cow over. hahaha I got my navel pierced and I love it! I think I woulda gotten a tattoo, if we had the time and I knew what I wanted...but this was much faster, less healing time, and less permanent. I just chopped my hair off Wednesday too! I do this about once every 3 years...cut my hair, pierce something, decide I'm gonna do what I wanna do for o...

Davin or Ellie?

Which will it be?! lol--you're all just gonna have to wait because its a SURPRISE!! :) I'm having a really really hard time coming up with a good name for a little girl--you know, just in case. But we already know a little boy will be Davin!!(like Gavin with a D) possibly spelled Daven ... We've known that since Genevieve was on the way. :) I'm thinking I kinda like Davyn for a girl, too---of course with the different spelling. But baby's daddy likes Elenore....or Ellie. I really do like it too. (see the cd at the bottom of the blog) David, Genevieve, and Elenore. lol (Trip, Genna-Clair, and Ellie or Davin ) We also kinda sorta like Miriam...but we would just call her Miriam, NO NIC-NAME. lol Let's cross our fingers for a boy, shall we?! lol 18 weeks and counting! Currently listening: Elenore: 30 Years of Rock 'n Roll By The Turtles Release date: 26 September, 1995

Reviving the Writer

... Deciding to revive a once-lost memory is intimidating. The will to bare your thoughts, sometimes unedited, for public viewing, conjures images of hiding behind my mother's dress at church -just to get a good peek at things before edging into view. If only writing gave us at least that safety net. A conversation with a friend inspired this post, a decade after shutting down and retreating to small blurbs on social media. I asked why she hasn't 'written that book.' You know, when judging others, you're just asking to be judged yourself--and our toughest judge typically is our own inner voice. Henceforth, I have determined that on this day, in order to practice what I speak, in absolute protest against my tendency to imposter syndrome, I'll be writing again. It isn't that I stopped communicating but I stopped sharing my thoughts so openly. I'll update the happenings of the past decade and plan a fresh look to this space. Everchanging, Kristen
