So much to be happy about BUT...

Besides the fact that my child prefers to stay un-born, I have so much to be about about in my life right now.


I am so so excited about the near future where I will be able to:
be a stay at home mom,
live in our own house in the white mountains,
be able to make lunch for my husband when he comes home from work,
work on crafts,
decorate my house,
landscape the yard,
actually look at my belongings which have been in storage
...I could go on and on


BUT I realized yesterday that all of this means one terrible thing


I will have to become a spider killer.


I was going to put a picture of a real spider but after google imaging spider...it creeped me out to much so I then google imaged "plastic spider" much better.
which I really really hate but I will have no option once I have a child that could be eaten alive.
All of these wonderful things will surely make this duty worth it but I'm sure I'll have to start slowly. (which means taping a cup over the spider in it's location until my husband comes home...my sister and I invented this technique long ago which is especially useful on stink bugs which you leave under the cup until they die of natural causes/starvation and you skip the stinky part)

He he he. Plus the tape move only really works on wood floors. Not as effective on carpet. When I saw a spider in mom's downstairs bathroom when Kai and I were staying there, I was totally overcome with the urge to kill it to keep my child safe. It was wierd. You'll have that too, no worries.

Haha, tape idea is genius. We would always put a bowl over it and then a few books (as if it could lift up the bowl with only one book or even no books... haha). The tape route seems much more effective. That makes me laugh. Good luck with the next upcoming weeks. If he looks anything like Kai, he'll be a major cutie. Its in your genes. :)
