this is what i found in the shopping cart at target today: a can of keyboard cleaner spray (???), can of febreeze spray (strawberry?), a dora the explorer birthday card, kitten christmas cards (pack of 18), & a pack of hair bands (multi colored). this was the work of a very fast toddler...i really didn't ignore her or let her wander too far at all & plop, i look down & there's all the extras. when do we lose our ability to be that quick on our toes (okay, when did i lose that ability?).
i have a very very cute video of amelia smiling & nearly laughing at the kissing penguins, but alas, i suck at computer schtuff & don't know how to upload. so...until my hubby helps me, you'll just have to use your imagination. but, she's adorable.
what did i do this weekend? well, yesterday was quite fun. & i forget friday night....hmm, what did we do? hmmm...do not remember! anyway, yesterday afternoon i sold my winter maternity clothes & they took about half of them & i walked away with $85! yea! & then they said that they'd love to see my spring & summer clothes in march, so i'm very much looking forward to going there again. bye bye maternity clothes (no worries, leila, i still have yours; i didn't sell yours, UNLESS you want me to ;o). selling the maternity clothes has made it official: the gerbicks are only having 2 babies (by this mama). i tell wes if he wants a boy we either have to #1 adopt #2 knock up another lady. i really hope he chooses #1 if he wants a boy. (let's set this straight: if he chooses #2, he will have many many many other problems on his hands). so yes, 2 kids it is. i feel pretty darn good about this decision.
really, i was a terrible pregnant lady. all the little woes & problems got me good but thankfully i never had anything seriously wrong. however, i would go through labor & delivery any day before being pregnant again. although painful, it's amazing to birth a baby. & i'm happy with my decision to do the no pain meds hypnobirthing thing twice. all in all, i'm satisfied with my two babies that i have & the way in which they arrived; it is complete. so there kristi & judy; you have my thesis on why i am certain i won't be (purposefully) pregnant ever again! :o)
speaking of those ladies...after i sold my clothes, i went thrifting with judy to this AWESOME store called 'the village thrift store' (off of cleveland ave). it was totally amazing. they had racks of clothes in excellent condition for pennies. seriously, pennies. i spent $0.45 on a gap jumper (red, like a christmas outfit), size 3T. & there were dozens of deals like that...it was like manna from heaven & i was just sitting there picking it up. i went away with an entire garbage bag full of clothes for next summer & some extra little things for amelia for only $32. a full garbage bag...i love bargains. why why why spend full price?
then after that judy & i met kristi (my sister) at easton to eat at the cheesecake factory. a special treat for selling my maternity clothes (oh wait, the new hat & socks were also a treat...). we waited for 2 hours to get a table. what were we thinking?! oh my. but we had a ball & ate a lot, shared the food & then went over to barnes & noble to talk some more. & then today was christmas stuff. gifts online are purchased, the christmas photo thing is complete. i didn't go to church & kept millie home with me, hoping to find a bit more time to do the online calendars & such. but i'm also struggling a bit with whether or not we should stay at that church. we just have some equally as intriguing options only a few miles away from home...anyway, it's not really something i need to discuss in this blog, so i'll skip to saying that i am glad that so many other people worry about things like what to do if your car lands in water! your comments were helpful.
wes is brewing beer outside (yes, now, at 9 p.m. & in the freezing cold...crazy man) & i am ready to hit the hay. & i still don't remember what we did friday night. how is it possible to have such a terrible memory at such a young age? (yup, calling myself young here!)

Yes, it was fun. I love spending time with 2 good friends. Thanks.
I think Addy gets her "quick-draw-put it-in-the-cart-before-anyone-sees-it" skills from her popop...... He is the master at shocking me at the check out......
