Bridals and Tooth Fairies

I had my bridal pictures done yesterday. Obviously, I cannot post those until after the wedding. One more thing down, and now less than 3 weeks till the wedding! It makes me sad each time another thing passes. My shower, my bridals - I just keep thinking that I will never have another one of those again and I need to savor every minute of it. My bachelorette party is coming up in 2 weeks, that will be A LOT of fun. It will be the first time I have had alot of my friends together in the same room. I have so many "eras" of my life, as we all do, the older we get. I have my friends from elementary, my friends from youth group, my friends from Roadhouse, and my friends from various jobs where I have worked. And now, all of them will be at the wedding and I am so excited.

Jordan lost another tooth, this I will post because he looks so old now. I look at Jordan and Sophie and I can't believe I have known them a year. They seem so much older now, and it just makes me realize how fast time flies and how precious time is. I wish we got to see them more, but it is what it is. We get them for a whole month in July, which is going to be so great. We have never spent that much time with them at once before, not even Jason. Before I came into the picture, he was never able to have them for a week at Christmas, or a whole month because he couldn't do it with work. I am glad I get to be a part of that and help. My friend Kate has a little sister, Molly, who is the perfect age to come over and watch the kids for a few hours during the day. (Seeing as how I work about 5 minutes away from the apartment, I think we will be good). Ah, babysitting days.

Anyway, here is a picture of Jordan and his tooth fairy dollar!

I'm glad to know that our tooth fairy gives the same amount. $1 for regular teeth and $2 for each big front tooth. I've heard people giving $5 and $10. Not us! And I soooo wish I could be there for the big party and the wedding! I'm so sorry, Jenna!! I guess I'll just have to enjoy it in pictures.

And by the way, we should meet somewhere for vacation in July when y'all have the kids. That would be sooo much fun!!!

Why I am Pro Universal Healthcare and Changes to Our Healthcare System

Due to my recent proactivity with my credit and paying off debt, I decided to give the hospital a call where I was admitted about a month ago and ask about my bill. I wanted to make sure I didn't miss it in the mail and I wanted to get an idea of what I'd be paying for my stay. I get on the phone with the billing department and the woman is just as nice as can be, really. She was surprised I'd even called her, considering I didn't even have a bill yet. She told me she'd sent the bill over to my insurance to be approved and paid but they hadn't heard back yet. "Just out of curiosity," I asked, knowing I would be responsible for 20% of the final bill, "how much was it?" What I heard next shocked me.   "$61,000" she said.   I said, "$61,000? I was only in the hospital for a night and only on anti-biotics, you can't be serious! My daughter cost me less than a third of that to give birth to and I was in the hospital two nights!...

That "Thing" in That Basket Isn't a Baby, You Know That, Right?

I have had the most horrible case of writer's block lately! With that said, I saw this article on Babycenter and I just had to write something about it.   So, we've heard of the trend of eating the placenta after birth . We've heard of the trend of putting them in pill form to get the nutrients . But this? This to me, is just the craziest of them all.   As a group of beings on this planet, I've never seen any other mammal who evolves to get to a certain place, then de-evolves on purpose, to be more "natural." I am sure I am seriously about to put my foot in my mouth, I am sure there are (some) people out there that I might offend with my "closed-mindedness" on this topic. But this is just, well, ridiculous to me.   Basically, after the placenta comes out, instead of cutting the cord and detaching it from the baby, you leave the placenta on, they salt it to help with the decomp process, add rosemary (I am guessing for the smell?), then p...

Some Changes...

We've been going through a bit of a transition at the Whitehead household the last month or so. I haven't really talked too much about it because I wasn't ready, to be honest. It's just a lot of change and I've been trying to figure it out in my head.   As of three weeks ago last Friday, I am no longer a full time work out of home employee.   I can't believe I just said that.   It's been the plan for several months now for me to go into real estate and it was always assumed I'd be doing that part time, while keeping my full time job. Plans kind of changed when Jason got his promotion. He'd always has a job that allowed him a lot of flexibility. In sales, especially after you've been in a position for a while, it just sort of happens that way. He could take Avery to daycare and pick her up, he could take her to doctor's appointments, he could even do chores around the house in the afternoon, while I was at work. I had some flexibi...
