La Famille Wilcox
Where does the family start? It starts with a young man falling in love with a girl - no superior alternative has yet been found.

It's 5 AM and I am still awake! Not cool!

So, it's going on 5:30 and I've been awake since 1 something. I have the worst heartburn and upset stomache of my life! I finally broke down and went to Wal-Mart and bought some Maalox. Tums just weren't cutting it and all that's on TV are stupid infomercials. I figured I' do something productive.

I had a lightening fast appt. at perinatology on fri. I was a little irked because I drove all the way to Beaverton for a 15 mon. appt. The US tech was in such a hurry. She forgot to measure Bella. All they had to tell me was she looks fine. Well, duh! I already knew that! the day got progressively worse. I drove all the over to Lake Oswego to go to Babies R Us because we got a $10 gift card from them. Whoo-hoo, or so I thought. I spent an hour looking around and finally found the cutest little pair of shoes! I was so excited. When I got to the cash register the card wouldn't work. She called over someone else and they said "Oh, this gift card expired in Aug." first of all, how does a gift card expire?! The first cashier said "Oh, we'll just override it" the second one said "No, that's not possible, it's expired" I couldn't believe it. We just had the baby shower and they knew that, which was why they sent us the card! The second cashier (the mean one) said, "If you want to buy everything off of your registry we'll give you 10%off" I said: No thank you! I live in Vancouver and drove all the way over here and am never coming back. Then....I went to Arby's to console myself and dripped Arby's sauce all over my pashmina wrap and white shirt! I just wanted to cry!

Okay, so that was me venting from 3 days of pent up anger....on to something else. Today was pretty good. I went "super saturday" and hung out w/ the girls. It was nice. I need to do that more often. I feel like I have no girlfriends. Since Jill moved to Utah and we got married, I feel like such a loner. It was nice to sit and socialize. I love Joe to death, but sometimes I just need some girl talk!
I am so ready to have this baby. I was pleading with Heavenly Father earlier to just make something happen! Apparently, the whole thy will not mine still stands. 'Cause I'm still PREGNANT!!!!!
I think I'm so tired I'm just rambling deliriously. I'm going to force myself to try and sleep. for the last few saturdays something has come up and I can't make it through even an hour of church.
