The Darker it is, The Longer you can Wear it

If you are anything like me, you wear clothes over and over again. And something I have noticed is that the darker the clothing is, the longer you can pass it off as clean and thus, wear it longer. Take for instance, my new dull green boy-ish shorts. I loved them so much I got two pairs of the dull green and one pair of cacky. I had made a wonderful choice because of two reasons. The first of which is that if one pair gets dirty, I can just wear the other one. The second though, is the best so far.(I think) I can wear the same on for a week or so!!! Because I have two then I can say, "But I'm wearing the clean one!!" And mom can say, "But I just washed that one, it's still in the dryer!!" But.... "But mom!!! These are clean, you washed them last week and I made sure I didn't fall in the water or get anything on them!!" And thus, the great clothing war will continue, forever, and ever.

Oh My Goodness!!

Wow, time has flown!! While it has flown, not so much and yet too much has happened. For instance, most of the time I was lounging around while watching TV, playing computer and doing school and the like. However, that is not the end of my tale. If you were following my Mom's blog (gratefulforgrace.blogspot.com) then you know all about my new baby brother. However, if you didn't and to refresh the minds of those who did, here is his story, from the beginning.

Okay, so I'm at AWANA with a friend who will remain nameless. For now we shall call her Sophie, for the sake of the press. Sophie was peering at my mom and then popped The Question. " Is your mom pregnant?" It had occurred to me in the months past that my mom had either been gaining a lot of weight, or she was pregnant. However, thinking that my mom would tell us if she became pregnant, I replied to Sophie. "No, but thank the Lord that you asked me, not her. She doesn't like it if you ask her if she's pregnant and she's not. She starts crying in private." Sophie was startled and started laughing. " I'm sorry, I really thought she was pregnant." It was pretty funny then, but if you thought that was funny, wait 'till you hear this next part! So we are on our way to H-E-B youth camp at Laity Lodge, when on the way there Mom hands us some card for the Brady Brunch. If you know the opening song to the show then you know why that announced it. If not, then go hear, I don't really know it either. Well, that gave me a shock, so I started laughing, thinking of Sophie asking just that week if she was pregnant. When I saw her at AWANA next week I explained the situation. It is now a big joke. My Mom's Doctor had told her that he was worried about her and didn't want her to have another baby after Stinker. My new baby wasn't planned, what happened was...well...umm...You'll have to read Mom's older posts to find out, I mean, after all, I want my blog to be safe for kids. Well, A few months later mom is as big as a water melon and ready for the baby to come. Even later we are preparing for the baby 3 weeks ahead. But then, a week and 2 days from the due date (my mom always has c-sections) she started to feel funny. She started having pains, the next day (Wednesday) she goes to see the Doctor. She doesn't come home for a week and 3 days. It turns out that she has to have the baby early. He was born and was named.....*blank blank blank* HA!! You really thought I was going to post his name on the Web?! No way. I have dubbed him Yawnsaur cause he yawns a lot (he yawned twice on the sonagram!) and cause both the outfits I got him have cute dinosaurs on it, so that's what I'll call him. Anyway, since the actual due date was 2 weeks early, he was born a total of 3 weeks early. That wasn't good at all! Not to mention he wasn't doing so well, so they flew him by helicopter to a hospital in a nearby city, mom and dad stayed with him the whole time. (go figure) They (the doctors)thought he was coming on that day and then on this day but there was always a problem. And then, after two weeks and three days, he came home, and that day was today.

I love my new brother, and I am sure he loves me. (or he will soon)(I mean, who could resit me?) I can't wait for him to talk.Well, I better go, I love you all, Kisses!!
