The sneak cuddle

I can't believe I am actually sharing this information, but I feel it is my duty for all those who like to cuddle.
In some marriages there is a cuddler and a non cuddler. In my marriage I am very blessed to have a husband who likes to cuddle to a certain point. When it is time to sleep it's time to sleep. I can totally respect that. However, I have devised a way that everyone is happy. I call it the Sneak Cuddle.
Early on in our marriage, the first couple of weeks I started my training.
1. Wait till non cuddler is fast asleep. (this may be the most important step of them all)
2. Slowly inch closer. (The first couple of nights you will only be able to make it an inch, this is where the patience really pays off)
3. MAKE sure non cuddler is in position (on back, SNEAK SPOONING will not work!!!!!)
4. Slowly inch even closer, the non cuddler really needs to get used to you being that close and not waking up.
5. Gently rest your head on non cuddler's shoulder, now this may be a bit uncomfortable at first because you have to be really careful. The pay off is worth it. (Do this for a couple of min each night for a couple of nights)
6. Okay this is a hard one....once you have done 1-5 it's time for the big pay off. The cuddle. Once you get to step 5 and it has been a couple of nights and the non cuddler is not stirring it's time. Get head into position and S L O W L Y scoot in for the cuddle. This may take a couple of nights and be prepared to roll quickly if non cuddler starts to stir.
This is a method that has worked for me. I wanted to share the success I have had.

GOOD day to you!

I was talking to my mom last night and she gently reminded me that I have not blogged in a while. I told her I had nothing worth while to blog about, not much going on. It didn't seem really interesting that I made pork chops for dinner. *shrug*


She suggested that I post a picture of myself. Well it's 1:53am I don't think waking Josh up to take a picture of me right now would really be beneficial to our marriage. Plus my hair looks like a mohawk. Josh and I both got our hair cut last Wed. at the beauty school in town. It was 5 dollar Wed!!! Well, I think our girls had off days. Mine was shaking, and Josh's was a little off on her cutting technique. So my hair looks like Julie Andrews from the Sound of Music days. Josh's was pretty uneven. OH well.


I am very thankful for all the helpful advice that everyone gave in regards on what to pack. I am gathering things together to get ready :) Well I found my bag that I want to take.


We started decorating for Christmas we still have my old fiber optic tree from about 6 years ago. I love just taking it out and plugging it in. It has seen better days but it still spins like a champ! It's the best handme down ever!


Since I don't have a current picture of me I think I will try to find something on the world wide web that looks similar so you can get an idea of where I am at.

This seems to be the most accurate.
*I thought I would never look good in a bikini!

Advice Please :)

What should I pack for the hospital?
I know it is a while yet but I want to start getting stuff together. Plus let's face it if I don't ask now when I am thinking about it I will just forget :)

28 weeks

Front view of gorgeousness.

Side view.
- The other night we discovered that if I laugh really hard my belly button comes out. Which really just makes me laugh harder.
- Last night while in a fit of laughter (unrelated to my belly button), you know the kind when you just wheeze, for no apparent reason it turned to sobbing. The same thing happen to my cousin Missy when she was pregnant. It really makes me regret laughing so hard at her at the time. Sorry Missy.Josh really doesn't know what to expect anymore.
- Today I thought he was going to tumble out of the womb he was rolling so much. Does/did anyone start to feel nauseous after a long period of baby tumbling? He was pretty active all day, which I love but after a while I felt like I was on a boat. :)
Tomorrow is laundry day. :)
I really like laundry day. I really have no idea why. I love that all the laundry gets done. Maybe that is it. Who knows?
