Sunday Misc.

Yesterday Lane had to study all day long. The kids and I played at home until after A's nap, then we made a trip to Target for a baby shower gift. We chose a toy for Alexee to buy with her Halloween money from her Grandparents, but Rhett wanted to make a separate trip to a local toy store to look for something. So we stopped there next. It's a neat store, but barely room to walk inside. Rhett had been shopping for about 10 minutes when he decided to climb behind a huge display cabinet of toy men and scare Alexee. You can probably guess where this is going. He knocked the huge display over and it came crashing down on Alexee (it was only made of heavy-duty cardboard, so she's fine) and the 10 zillion little boxes of soldiers piled into a heap on the floor. The employee heard it all of course and told us not to worry about it--she said she'd clean it up. I had Rhett apologize for the trouble, then we quickly went to the car. My nerves couldn't handle any more shopping--I told Rhett he could spend his toy money another day very soon...maybe he can do his shopping via the internet.

I've been busy painting for my friend Heather and her sister-in-law, Linsey. I plan to see Heather tomorrow and deliver all the paintings. Here are a few of them:

For Brooks' sports-themed room:
For Linsey's baby boy's room:
I tried, unsuccessfully, to make the kids' picture in their plaid outfits again today. This was on our way into church this a.m.
I'm 18 weeks today. Only 2 1/2 weeks until my ultra-sound! Any boy or girl guesses???
