For one last attempt, I decided to take my washed cell phone back to Verizon to see if there was ANYTHING they could do. The thought of finding and inputting all the #’s again just made me tired. It turned on long enough for the lady to sync the numbers into my new phone! Hooray for miracles!!! Smiling.......
Also, Scott is the best Husband in the world....let me just put that out there=) Despite my ups and downs and all my crazy ideas and fun adventures I think up...he goes with the flow...with compassion! Very blessed!

Don't try this at home/ Registering
Yesterday morning started out delightful…well…not really.
Molly got sick on our bed…so I scooped up the sheets and put them immediately in the washer….and a few minutes after the soapy-water filled up the washer, and the washer started….I heard this clump-clump-clump…until the load finished. I took out my clean sheets…and was placing them in the dryer...and my dripping wet cell phone fell to the floor. AHHHHHH…I DO NOT recommend washing your cell phone. I was unsuccessful=(
So, after church, I went to Verizon and got another phone….oh, by the way, all my numbers got washed away too. Lovely! I am numberless now=( I was definitely humbled Sunday morning…and remain humbled every time I want to call someone and have no idea what the # is.
When I was fuming…a quote came to mind (very timely I might add): ‘It’s not the circumstance that matters most…but the way you react to the circumstance that makes the difference!’ Ah! Busted…after that I felt guilty for pouting..haha.
______________________________________________________________
On Saturday, Abby (sister-in-law) and Libby (niece) went with me to Target and to Toys/Babies R Us to start to register. What an experience! There is just SO much out there=) We got a ton accomplished and had a good time doing it. I was incredibly grateful for the hands-on advice! Also, for all those of you who emailed advice and tips…MANY THANKS! I printed off all the ‘tips’ and took them with me while registering. Your advice really came in handy!
Sunday night when Scott got out of practice, we went to Babies R Us (massive warehouse!) and found a stroller and pack n play, etc that we liked. Exciting times in the Combs household!
Chandler Kate is kicking (or whatever she does ALL DAY and ALL NIGHT) right now as I type=)
Time is flying by!

The adventures of Chandler Kate
This morning was our ’28 week’ baby appt! I had to drink the ‘orange drink’ to do the diabetes test. Will find out in a few days any test results. But also, we got to see baby Chandler Kate again via ultrasound. She is 2lbs and 15” long. He said everything measures and looks good and normal. Dr. Anderson wanted to check to see where the placenta was. He has been keeping an eye on the location of the placenta…because it started out real low. But fortunately, the placenta rose up and will not be in the way of the birth canal. So yea!
Chandler Kate showed off a bit for the camera. She held up one finger and waved, then 2 fingers and waved…then she waved her entire hand. She open and closed her hand and grabbed for her arm. She wiggled a little…and is now too long to get an entire body shot. Dr. A said she had long fingers! Haha! She kicked out her legs…straightened them out and then bent. The cutest trick: she puckered like a fish and kept opening and shutting her lips. I wanted him to check to see if there was a cleft lip…so he had to get super close to her mouth…we could see her lips perfectly! She was kissing the camera! Very funny and cute I must say!
It was fun for Scott to see her wiggle. Although he feels her through my tummy, it was really neat to see a visual of her actually moving.
‘By now, your baby, has added blinking to her growing bag of tricks. Other impressive new talents being added to your baby's roster include coughing, more intense sucking, and, perhaps most important, better breathing.’ From http://www.whattoexpect.com/
So, good news to report from the Combs Crew!
We have 2 big games this week at home: Thurs vs UTM (8pm) and Sat vs Murray (730).
Let’s Go Peay!

The Name Game
Well, friends, the wait it over. Baby Combs is not nameless anymore!
Drum Roll please: Chandler Kate Combs
Naming baby was a hard hard hard task. Scott and I both had different visions on what the name would be….so we met in the middle and finally found one (two) name(s) that we both agreed on! Wheeew!
We love the unique name of Chandler because we don’t know any…and we love Kate because it’s sassy and girly...and short. Since Chandler is not really a traditional name…we wanted the middle name to balance it by being a bit more common. So- that’s what it is!

Prairie Pink and Chardonnay Green..and Let's Go Peay!
The room is painted! Prairie Pink (soft pink) and Chardonnay Green (lime). Love it! It feels refreshing to have that project completed. Thanks, Mom, Dad, and Scott! Definitely a team effort.
