mermaid or a whale?
A while back, at the entrance of a gym, there was a picture of a very thin and beautiful woman. The caption was "This summer, do you want to be a mermaid or a w
hale?"
The story goes, a woman (of clothing size unknown) answered the following way:
"Dear people, whales are always surrounded by friends (dolphins, seals, curious humans), they are sexually active and raise their children with great tenderness.
They entertain like crazy with dolphins and eat lots of prawns. They swim all day and travel to fantastic places like Patagonia, the Barents Sea or the coral reefs of Polynesia.
They sing incredibly well and sometimes even are on cds. They are impressive and dearly loved animals, which everyone defend and admires.
Mermaids do not exist.
But if they existed, they would line up to see a psychologist because of a problem of split personality: woman or fish?
They would have no sex life and could not bear children.
Yes, they would be lovely, but lonely and sad.
And, who wants a girl that smells like fish by his side?
Without a doubt, I'd rather be a whale.
At a time when the media tells us that only thin is beautiful, I prefer to eat ice cream with my kids, to have dinner with my husband, to eat and drink and have fun with my friends.
We women, we gain weight because we accumulate so much wisdom and knowledge that there isn't enough space in our heads, and it spreads all over our bodies.
We are not fat, we are greatly cultivated.
Every time I see my curves in the mirror, I tell myself: "How amazing am I ?! "
Do share if you care.
Don't forget to share it! :)

BEEN A WHILE!
Figured I had better update you all! We have been offline for about 8-9 months. Maybe longer considering the last post was about the phone scam & we miscarried in Jan. Now Nov. we have welcomed our 4th son,Charles Ryder Reid! The boys are adjusting quite well to a new addition & to a new climate! We have moved to Illinois recently. So many changes for the upcoming new year!!
Spaghetti & Meatballs
A wealthy man was having an affair with an Italian woman for a few years.
One night, during one of their rendezvous, she confided in him that she was pregnant.
Not wanting to ruin his reputation or his marriage, he paid her a large sum of money if she would go to Italy to have the child. If she stayed in Italy,
he would also provide child support until the child turned 18.
She agreed, but wondered how he would know when the baby was born. To keep it discrete, he told her to mail him a post card, and write "Spaghetti" on the back. He would then arrange for child support.
One day, about 9 months later, he came home to his confused wife.
"Honey," she said, "you received a very strange post card today."
"Oh, just give it to me and I'll explain it later," he said.
The wife obeyed, and watched as her husband read the card, turned white, and fainted.
On the card was written "Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti. Two with meatballs

Breastfeeding...
So as most of you know Gabriel is going to be 1 year old in just about a week ( wow ) and yes Mommy still nurses. But ya know this kid just does not nurse like a normal child,lol...he kind of lays himself across my stomach and chest longways and nurses or he will stick his butt up in the air and nurse...he comes over (he's a walker now ) and will lift up my shirt and "help himself". So many people are like "are you still nursing"...Is that wrong? Shouldn't I let Gabe tell me when he's ready, within reason of course. Maybe it's because he is a major mommy's boy and i quite enjoy that considering my older two are daddy's boys. lol...Maybe it's me that's not ready?? I don't know, I guess neither of us are. What do you all think?

confused...
So as i announced in previous post Took a pregnancy test and it was Positive, well we have taken another to be sure before setting my first Drs appointment, and it was Negative. Going to re-test in a few days but it's looking like it was a false positive...
Said our Goodbyes to Toni & the girls today. It was hard to see them leave, Peanut teared up and that was it, I lost it! That girl has been my lil peanut since she was like a year and a half. Now she will be in Germany , but she was always be my peanut.

retested again
So I had retested the other day and still had a NEG result. I was thinking wow, I have all the symptoms, still no true menstral yet the test is Negative? So I decided to give it a few more days via a conversation with my OBGYN. And retest on Fri. ...okay I know today is not friday,lol. I retested a little while ago and yes there is a faint second line, it is visable enough to spot without struggle though! SO my gut has been right and feel confident enough to say it's a POSITIVE!!! Going to retest in a few days though to get a darker positive for pictures,lol. Ya'll know me I have to take pictures for memory sake and to keep a journal of it all.
David & I are so exited to start on this new journey together and welcome a fourth child into our family. We just couldn't be more thrilled! To us there is no greater gift then the gift of family. :) Thank You Jesus for our many gifts!And BTW names have already been chosen,lol...
Girl will be Eloise Grace aka Elly or the Boy will be Charles Edwin aka Eddie.

retesting
We are going to retest today since the pink show stopped, seems it was implantation bleeding. So once I retest I will update everyone...My hopes are high that it wasn't a false positive afterall and that the Dr is right and it is just implanting!!

Confused
So as most of my friends & family know we took a PG test last week that gave us a faint positive, today I am having some spotting, pink at first, but there is some red as well. Signs of my menstral starting? So Was the test wrong? I hate dud tests they end up breaking your heart!! This has reassured me more then ever that we want one more and will not give up that fight for our final puzzle piece...

So much to
Update everyone on. Lost net for a while and instead of getting it back I chose to get a new cell phone. I got the new android at sprint and I ♥ it! The boys are great. Growing to fast though. Gabe is 6 months old already. He love's tummy time, scoots backwards and adores his big brothers. Adrian is our tough Guy. He now beats on big brother instead of the other way around! He is slowly warming up to baby brother but he's getting there. He has turned back into mommy's cuddle bug though and I simply love it and missed it! George is starting to talk more. Bit he and Adrian still speak their own language and understand each other. Love my three guys!! ♥

Just a quick update on the boys, they are all growing so fast! George is starting to talk much better, Adrian is turning into a copy cat,lol...he loves doing what he sees big brother do, which believe is NOT always a good thing. Gabe is just growing way to fast for my liking! Here are some new pics of the boys...hugs n love
