My Pregnancy Dreams

I don't know if any of you remember having weird dreams but last night I had a couple of doozys.
The first one was simple. I basically had the baby but it came out as a black bunny. I was very disappointed to say the least.
The other dream was a little more complex. I think I was at the mall. I called my mom over and out came this full grown child, yet it wasn't a normal child. It looked more like a rag doll with yarn hair. The other weird thing was that it didn't have any meat on it's bones so my mom and I tried to stuff it back in since it didn't seem to be done. My uterus seemed more like a plastic trash bag on the outside of my body that we were trying to get it in. I wanted to clarify that part so you weren't envisioning my mom and I trying to put it back in any other way:)
The other weird thing that happened this week wasn't a dream although it seemed kind of like one. I had the girls at the grocery store and I heard this very hyper woman asking her husband to bet her $100. She was going on and on trying to get him to commit. I kept hearing her say "I will ask her, are you going to bet me $100?" At this point as I was trying to concentrate on the soup cans I realized it was more than likely about me. I didn't know if I should have been flattered that I was causing so much excitement or scared. Sure enough as her husband scurried off to the next aisle ( I think he was actually the one scared) she came right up to me and asked what I was having and told me she had a $100 riding on her being right. I said "a boy". You would have thought she had just won the lottery. Off she ran and I think I could still hear her several aisles over saying, "I told you, I told you, I knew it, I knew it!" Now most of you know I don't like being the center of attention but I must say although this woman was a total stranger I was happy I could make her grocery store trip a little more exciting for her.

Could They Be Any Different?

I marvel quite a bit at the differences between my two daughters. Haley has and hopefully always will be the sweetheart with tender feelings like her Mommy and a drive to be in business (like her Mommy too). Ella on the other hand is a wild, free-spirited thing that enjoys making people laugh more than anything else and always keeps us shaking our heads. There is never a dull moment.
Yesterday I took them both to work with me so that my husband could get motivated to work on the nursery (and yes he painted!). Anyway it was a normal, crazy adventure of several bank trips, smart and final runs and three store visits. The highlights would definately be Ella dipping dog bones in white chocolate. It wasn't the actual dipping that was entertaining but what she did once they were set up. She proceeded to lick and eat all of the white chocolate off of each dog bone. The customers found this very entertaining which probably just spurred her on more.
Haley on the other hand had made her own tip cup with the words "little girl's tips" written on the outside. This is to make sure that her tips don't get confused with the regular employee working. It is surprising how quickly people give her money though. I think she is starting to pass me on the daily income level. In fact one of her favorite things to do is to visit Claire's next to us at the mall. She goes and hangs out with the employees there while I work. Anyway she took her tip cup with her and managed to make money at a place she wasn't even working at. Go figure!
All in all it wasn't as crazy to have them with me as most days. We were gone for a good 6 hours and I think between the three of us we had one meltdown each.
