gifted like that, make no mistake

I want to buy a red toy box but it's thirty dollars and it's vintage (and having restored vintage things, I know you can make like 60 times what you paid for the item yourself- sometimes it's even free and then you make people pay for the labor too and in the end you watch that person driving away with your beautiful desk for some hip new private girl's school computer lab and you still think that 100 bucks wasn't enough for it. i'm serious.) and I need it to be coral pink instead. or yellow. or green... can you have reds and pinks together? It never bothered me but I do know people that it drives crasy!

Also, I need help finding the cutest stuffed animal in the whole world for grace.

Also, my dad came up with the best thing ever- I need to find a place that will do a vinyl decal for the wall in circus font that says AMAZING with an arrow pointing down and i'm going to stick it behind Grace's crib.

And then when Penelope is born (penny) I forgot what he came up with to put over her crib but he likes the name penny better than grace and the whole time we were vacaying in california he called peanut Penny.
I just told him I'm pretty sure this is Grace, and Penny is the second girl-child because Grace has to be all responsible and the oldest sibling type and take care of penny and Penny is going to be who i was in my family- kind of the odd crazy tomboying artist who lives in a leotard and a tinkerbell skirt and giant t-shirts. I guess I'll just have to wait and see in June who comes first.
I've just had so many dreams about Grace. Like, before I married Brandon I had dreams about her (at the time they FREAKED me out because I was like, " IM SINGLE, IM IN COLLEGE, IM NOT YOUR MOTHER!")

But my mom when she had lachelle was going to name her jacqueline and my older brother chris (praise the lord) came into the room and said NO THIS IS LACHELLE! which ended up working out because my mom said she had a dream that she had a dark headed jacqueling and a blond lachelle and even though i was born blond and lachelle was born dark headed look at us now! i have dark hair and im her jacqueling and lachelle has blond hair and is her lachelle!

and everyone lived happily ever after.

maybe chris should decide if grace is grace or penny-

he's gifted like that.
