Kids Say the Darndest Things

Me and Matt teach the Sunbeams class in our ward. It is a very interesting calling. We get to see some very funny things and hear a lot of interesting and funny things:
-We had a visitor in our class today - he told us that when he was a baby he fell out of the window of his new house. And when he was older he fell off of a tractor - that's why his head hurts sometimes.
-Today during our bathroom break I was informed by a girl in our class that she had very fancy panties - she got them at the store. She then proceeded to tell me all about them.
-at the same trip I was also told that if you want to wipe your bum, you need to fold your toilet paper. I guess it's a valid tip.
Kids are real funny!

Friends Off

Dear Aiden,

We were going to have a fun day today. I took you to the library, we went to see dad at work, and then we went to the mall to find you a new backpack like your cousin Max has. At lunch time you started freaking out in the food court because I needed you back in the stroller. You are very hard to get in the stroller when you are flailing and screaming....but I was successful. You wouldn't stop screaming - everyone was staring at us - I decided to take you home. We went outside and you screamed even harder.....we got all kinds of good looks. You agreed to be good if we went inside again to get some food, and you were. Then we went to play with the trains. We played with them for a LONG time, and then it was time to go home. You did NOT want to do that!! You were freaking out so bad that I couldn't get you back in the stroller, so I had to carry you - and push the stroller - all the way through the mall and out to the car. You aren't a little boy anymore.....it wasn't that fun or easy. And you screamed and bawled the ENTIRE way. I wanted to scream and bawl back at you.....you are probably lucky that I didn't. (But I do wonder what our audience would have thought about that. hmmmmm)
Now you are in your bed screaming and bawling..........I'm going to leave you there for quite a bit longer. You need a nap and I need a break. Hopefully both of those things happen and then we can be friends again.

Love,
your mom

Stupid Dr. Megaman!


I've been in Medicine Hat for the past few days spending time with the family and with my pal Lianne. I was going to go home today since I had a doctors appointment to go to tomorrow. I phoned the office to verify what time my appointment was at - and they told me it was actually last Thursday. Then they proceeded to tell me that I have to pay them $75.oo for missing an appointment before they will see me again for anything. I mentioned that I must have been a bit confused about the dates, and that they hadn't called to confirm, and that I thought it would be a good idea if they just gave me a warning. They didn't think any of that mattered.
So.....guess I'm finding a new doctor!! haha! I don't really feel like paying a bunch of money to a place where I don't even like going. Plus I'm mad at them (even though it was my fault)
So wish me luck in the doctor hunt!!

So - the big news in our family..................baby #2 is on it's way!
I went for an early ultrasound to verify my dates - and they moved me up 2 weeks!
So, I'm going to go by that. Which means that the little gibblet should
be here sometime around March 13.
It also means that I'm 17 weeks already - nearly half done! WooHoo!
I'm not sure if it's a boy or a girl - it was still too early to tell
but I'm hoping that I can find out at my next ultrasound.
Here's some pics of the little bean!

Something New??

The Gibb Family has been looking for a new vehicle.
The civic is still good....but we'd like something a bit bigger
and I think Aiden would appreciate not having his head bashed
every time he gets put in his car seat!
This is the car we've been looking at......Isn't it pretty?!?!
We'll see what happens I guess..........
