Just for laughs....

Every woman in her third trimester looks pregnant. There's just no way around hiding it. I am obviously showing A LOT because the comments have begun. I seriously don't get offended, but at times I am still surprised at what comes out of people's mouths. I guess I'm just the 'think and don't say' sort of person. But still, I think the questions are worth noting.

The other day the checker at Wal-mart (where I am a frequent customer) noticed my tummy. "Again?!" she cried. I just grinned and said "YES!" She said, "That'll be six, right?" (I was even shopping without my kids). "W-O-W."

Our male neighbor at the pool asked me, "So when are you due, you've had a ultrasound right? There's not like a herd in there?"

A coach at the ball park turned to Rich and me and while looking at my belly inquired, "So how many you shooting for? A dozen, like that movie?"

Josh and Matt's old fall baseball coach spied my stomach and yelled to me, "You been drinking too much beer?" I smiled and said "Nope." He continued, "You know how that happens, right? Please, just stay away from my wife. I hear it's contagious!"

A dad at Trey's soccer game realized I was pregnant. "You have four already?" "Five," I answered. "You guys are Old School!"

"You've got your hands full!" pointing at us all and at my baby bump. "Lord bless ya!" (And I was only shopping with the girls. Too bad she didn't know THREE more were at school.)

But the most shocking ever was at my first ultrasound in Louisville with the girls and the tech/doctor (not sure what he was) came in and saw I was having twins-again. "You just pop'em out like rabbits."

Nice.

My new line for all the folks is, "If we are crazy enough to have five, then why not six."

That usually shuts them up.

The boys brought home their yearbooks last week.

It was fun to look through their classes, clubs and events from 2008-2009.

When I looked at Josh's class page, I got the giggles.

It reminded me of one of our Nance family photos from a few years back. Rich was sitting and with his long torso and the camera angle, he looked almost as tall as my mom standing. (who's 5 ft 6 1/2 in)

Josh looks like the kids that got held back a grade or two. No one would guess he's only actually seven.

One perk is I could always spot him in the lunch line. Always.

(Just for the record he and Matt will turn 8 on June 29. Josh currently is 4 foot 8 inches and weighs 86 pounds.)

The girls refer to the UPS driver as "The Present Guy." I agree.

And one more funny thing I saw last week at the mall.

A bumper sticker that read: I drive like a Cullen.

I walked into the store laughing.
