The Ninjas



What we've been up to lately. 

My due date is a little over a week away now. I feel pretty good, thanks for asking. Haven't been sick at all the last few weeks. Have had some normal pains I associate with the last month of pregnancy but no real labor yet. When I get to this stage I have to fight the feeling that I will always be pregnant. Pretty absurd when I try to rationalize it. It is impossible to be pregnant forever, right?

Monday is Brian's last day to work in Starkville. After that we will be living in Tuscaloosa full-time. I am looking forward to being home. Our new home, anyway. 

The latest on the break-in is that the perps are still trying to forge checks in our name. Now the District Attorney is involved and says he is pressing charges (on, to?) a girl who ended up with one of our checks and tried to cash it. Maybe eventually he will get to "Mike" and the other guy who robbed us. 

I miss parts of Starkville already. I miss seeing familiar faces at church and having friends to call up and get together with at a moment's notice. I miss chats in the produce aisle at Wal-mart. I miss being familiar with the best time to visit the local park. 

We visited a new church Sunday. It seems like a pretty good fit. Brian said there were quite a few kids around the boys' ages in children's church, which we will attempt next week. Although after watching this clip the other day I almost laughed out loud when the greeters offered us coffee a moment after we walked in the door.  (:

Don't tell James I said this, but he can't look tough with those cute cheeks. :) Praying for you in these last few eternal days of your pregnancy. Love you.

The boys are cute. I keep asking Rose if your baby has been born because I got in mind that your due date was the first part of this month.

Sorry for your stress about a move and the ongoing tangle about the break-in. I think you bring, file, or press charges against. I hope all three happen to these thugs.

You haven't got very long! It's so hot, I remember this time last year I was pregnant and SO hot!

Hope they catch the thugs as Mrs. Mary said!

Amy, hang in there mama...your baby is coming soon:) You'll love the relief you feel once that little bundle is here, all aches and pains aside:) Moves are always hard, especially right in the middle of hormone craziness, you are in my prayers and thoughts! Wish all of us girls were physically closer to cheer each other on, but this will have to do for now! Consider this your Northern cheering section...Amy, Amy she's our girl!!
