I do take prenatal multivitamin and mineral plus fish oil for Omega-3.  I am also taking a couple of whole-food supplements recommended by nutritionist.  The kids also take a kids chewable multivitamin.  Instead of sugar or artificial sweeteners, it is sweetened with xylatol, which strengthens their teeth.  I do have to say though, while I am really good about taking my stuff every day, I am not always great about remembering theirs.

Here is something I just got in an email that made me laugh Smile

The Dillard's Shopping Bag

This could only be true; you simply can't make this stuff up!

Clutching their Dillard's shopping bags, Ellen and Kay woefully gazed down at a dead cat in the mall parking lot. Obviously a recent hit---no flies, no smell. What business could that poor kitty have had here?' murmured Ellen.

'Come on, Ellen, let's just go...'

But Ellen had already grabbed her shopping bag and was explaining, 'I'll just put my things in your bag, and then I'll take the tissue.' She dumped her purchases in to Kay's bag and then used the tissue paper to cradle and lower the former feline into her own Dillard's bag and cover it.

They continued the short trek to the car in silence, stashing their goods in the trunk. But it occurred to both of them that if the y left Ellen's burial bag in the trunk, warmed by the Texas sunshine while they ate, Kay's Lumina would soon lose that new-car smell. They decided to leave the bag on top of the trunk, and they headed over to Luby's Cafeteria.

After they cleared the serving line and sat down at a window table, they had a view of Kay's Chevy with the Dillard's bag still on the trunk. BUT not for long! As they ate, they noticed a black-haired woman in a red gingham shirt stroll by their car, look quickly this way and that, and then hook the Dillard's bag without breaking stride. She quickly walked out of their line of vision. Kay and Ellen shot each other a wide-eyed look of amazement.

It all happened so fast that neither of them could think how to respond. "Can you imagine" fin ally s puttered Ellen; "the nerve of that woman!" Kay sympathized with Ellen, but inwardly a laugh was building as she thought about the grand surprise awaiting the red-gingham thief.

Just when she thought she'd have to giggle into her napkin, she noticed Ellen's e yes freeze in the direction of the serving line. Following her gaze, Kay recognized with a shock the black-haired woman with THE Dillard's bag, hanging from her arm, brazenly pushing her tray toward the cashier.

Helplessly they watched the scene unfold: After clearing the register, the woman settled at a table across from theirs, put the bag on an empty chair and began to eat. After a few bites of baked whitefish and green beans, she casually lifted the bag into her lap to survey her treasure. Looking from side to side, but not far enough to notice her rapt audience three tables over, she pulled out the tissue paper and peered into the bag. Her eyes widened, and she began to make a sort of gasping noise. The noise grew. The bag slid from her lap as she sank to the floor, wheezing and clutching her upper chest. The beverage cart attendant quickly recognized a customer in trouble and sent the busboy to call 911, while she administered the Heimlich maneuver. A crowd quickly gat hered that did not include Ellen and Kay, who remained riveted to their chairs for seven whole minutes until the ambulance arrived.

In a matter of minutes the curly-haired woman emerged from the crowd, still gasping, strapped securely on a gurney. Two well-trained EMS volunteers steered her to the waiting ambulance, while a third scooped up her belongings. The last they saw of the distressed cat-burglar, she disappeared behind the ambulance doors.......... the Dillard's bag perched on her stomach!
Sometimes, God does take care of those who do bad things! (AND once in awhile.......He allows us to witness it)!

I also have never been a smoker.  I just really don't understand it, honestly.  It's really gross and really bad for you.  (No offense to those that do!)

I also agree that it is really out of whack that smokers automatically get to take breaks without any questions asked, but nonsmokers do not.  That really makes no sense to me.

Anyway, I also send out best wishes to those who are trying to quit.  I know enough to know that it is often a VERY difficult road and I wish you all the very best! Smile

Yeah, I don't really understand men. Smile

One of the things with Randy and I is that we often sound like a couple of junior high kids with the name-calling back and forth (turd face, butt crack, etc).  For obvious reasons, we try to avoid that in front of this kids (I'm sure they'll be doing that on their own soon enough, but we don't need to encourage it!)

Randy does say a lot of really random things too...I will have to think and get back to ya...

Ok, so Emma and Timothy both have these little John Deere toy catalogs that they get whenever they go to the John Deere shop with Daddy and Pa.  These are a HUGE deal in our home!  So this morning, Timothy was playing with his and the cover started to come loose.  He started FREAKING OUT!!!  I took the book and he started yelling, saying "Don't throw it away!!!  I still want it!!!!'  I said I'm not going to throw it away.  I grabbed a roll of tape and he said "Why are you doing that?"  I said "So you stop whining!!!"  He stopped and got a really serious look on his face and said "Are you going to close my lips?"  He thought I was going to tape his lips shut!!!! lol  And no, I've never done that! Smile  The thought had never crossed my mind.  But now that he mentioned it..... Smile Just kidding Smile

Grrr....computer stalled in the middle of typing my response....

Anyway, despite all of the great comments about the beach, I think we would have to go with the rv.  We could always hit some beaches on our tour.  There are just so many places that I want to see, and I think it would be awesome to just cruise around with no set schedule and just go where we want, when we want.

Randy and I got a small taste of that a couple years ago.  A good friend of mine was getting married in Kansas, and my parents were watching the kids.  We took off on Thursday and slowly meandered our way down, taking back roads (dh wanted to look at fields along the way...always a farmer Undecided) but we got to see some cool stuff too that we would have missed if we just took the interstate.  Then on the way back, we decided to go through South Dakota and check out the Black Hills and Mt. Rushmore.  It was awesome to just make things up as we went along, with no real set plan. Smile

I think saying something like when we do something that like when we do something that makes someone ouchy or sad, then it makes us feel sad too.  Saying "I'm sorry" tells that person that we are sad about it too, and that it was something that we shouldn't do again.

Wow, lots of great advice!  I definitely agree.  Cutting out the junk food and white flour makes a big difference.  The fish oils can be very helpful on a lot of things.  And also eating healthy portions.  I know that eating several smaller meals throughout the day tends to work better than eating just a couple big meals.  It helps you keep the right portion sizes, keeps you feeling comfortably full, helps maintain your blood sugar and your metabolism.  Like they say with pregnancy, trying to make each bite of food you eat the best possible choices (lean proteins, dairy, veggies, fruits and whole grains).  And getting in any kind of exercise that you are able to handle.

I know, I should really practice what I preach. sigh  I know that right things to do...it's just keeping the discipline to stick with them. Smile

That sounds pretty cool!  It's definitely a good thing to have as much accurate info as possible when you are making your decisions.  Thanks for sharing! Smile

I would also be all about the Newlywed game and Family Feud (I love that game!)

By myself...possibly Wheel of Fortune.  We used to watch that all the time when I was a kid, and now Emma and Timothy love watching it.
