My hair is now really dark with streaks of red in it. I love it, its exactly what I wanted! I am getting mixed reviews of it though (although I could care less). Megan said it looked a little funny, mom (who I knew would hate it) said it was too red but Josh (who really matters) said he really liked it. He has never cared what I did to my hair and I am so thankful for that. It really bugs me to hear women say they can't cut their hair because their husband doesn't like it short (or colored or whatever). I have nothing against marital submission, but when its about me, I ask his opinion if I care for it and then do what I like.

My period seems to be missing which has Josh worried. We had unprotected sex once but I am positive I wasn't ovulating. I don't feel pregnant but I'm a week late and wishing I had kept up better with my cycle. I'm giving myself to the weekend and then I'll probably test. I should have kept my damn mouth shut about not repeating last time a few weeks ago. I talked to Courtney and there are some things that were going on during the times when I would have normally ovulated that could have pushed it back and I feel like that is probably what happened but I am sick of this nagging feeling in my gut that I don't know. If I am, this will be the last baby for us. Josh will get a vas because I cannot risk that happenening again. Anyway, I'll keep you updated.

Josh is downstairs hauling off trash out of my parents basement for them. He has to go to work in awhile so I'll take the kids and go home. Its COLD today and I am feeling like a big pot of pintos. :) Its been a slow month for him at work and a little discouraging too. I hope he can keep his head clear and stay focused on selling.

Megan is drawing faces. She draws a very good circle for the head and then either 2 dots for eyes or 2 smaller circles for eyes and then a dot for the nose and a smiley mouth. I am very impressed. (but of course). Dawson still isn't talking very much but I see improvement in his babbling so I am not worried. I've been told that boys can take longer to mature in this way so I feel he is still within normal range. He is such a sweetie though. He loves to cuddle which I am happy for because Megan never would let anyone do that with her. (unless she was nursing of course.)

I need to go check on D, he's sleeping downstairs. later
