This Toot Smells Funny

I would just like to toot my own horn for a minute. Last week through the turmoil of being caught in the evil grasp of a kidney stone, i was forced against my will to take an economics and calculus test. Through the pain i completed these daunting tasks and the reward at the end is that i actually did really well on both tests (well above both class averages)! Does it make having the pain of a kidney stone worth it? ABSOLUTELY NOT!! In fact to this day (going on 11 days now) I'm still drugged up to cope with having non-stop menstrual cramps for men. Anyway, enough tooting...

Madison has decided that she doesn't like wearing diapers anymore, she must love the cool breeze on her little backside, because every moment she gets, she rips off her diaper and then runs around the house. In reality i think she is ready to be potty trained...which is good news!

Alicia seems to be getting bigger every day now, but she is still right on par to where she needs to be with the pregnancy. In fact, most people think that she looks super small for being 6 months pregnant.

Also on that note we have finalized the baby's name (given that she still comes out a girl):
Shaylee Elsie Rogers
We thought Elsie sounded really cute and it has a great family tie (after my wonderful Nanny!).

Anyway, the time I'm wasting writing this i should be doing homework, so this is it for now...

passed the tests but not the stone, huh :)
can't believe you would compare it to menstrual cramps. the stone may hurt more but it doesn't haunt you every month!
the name sounds good. hannah will be pleased as well. hope you are feeling well, alicia. (and not having to baby mark too much when you deserve it more!)

Hey I totally forgot you had a blog until I saw it on your facebook page! That totally sucks you have kidney stones. Have you been going to work or getting that off?? Using up that nice ELB? Econ and Calc... I don't envy you at all. It's awesome that you're doing well though. You can catch us at our blog jaredandshirleyhale.blogspot.com. Hope you get feeling better soon!!
