Pregnant Brain Strikes Again!!!

So on Friday I was making Dan's cake and I took off my wedding ring so I wouldn't get it all dirty. Then the last place I could remember putting it was on the counter in the kitchen (my fingers have swollen too much so I couldn't put it back on) (Another sad story- my swollen-ness- but that's a story for another day!). I have been searching since Sunday afternoon for my ring when I realized I didn't know where it was. I was almost in tears today thinking somehow Brock had walked off with it and thrown it out in the neighborhood somewhere or in the trash or something. Or maybe it fell down a drain. Anyways- I have been so upset over my lost ring!

*Cheesy Part coming*- This morning I had Scott and Brock say prayer after prayer to help me find the ring. Scott kept telling me to look in my closet and I did and nothing. So just now Scott and I sat down and said another prayer. (I know- so cheesy- can you see our halos yet?!)
And then Scott said "Jesus can hear us if we ask quiet so I'll ask him real quiet."
So Scott whispered real quiet for help finding my ring.

Then Scott said- lets look in your closet again. And then he told me he thought it was in our safe in the closet. (I'd looked there 5 times) then he pulled out one of my jewelry boxes and told me it's probably with my other jewelry. And it dawned on me- I'd put it in the jewelry box I kept on a shelf in my bathroom because it's hidden. And there it was!

I know a totally dumb story and for the life of me I probably never would have remembered I put it there! But Scott was so stinkin cute and totally helped me find my ring! and I just had to tell someone because I'm soooo excited my ring is no longer lost! And darn pregnant brain- I can't count how many times I've lost my keys only to find them in my hand or sunglasses on my head or something!

(OK- I'll get off my soapbox now and crawl away into a corner- I'm a dork I know!)

ah the pregnant brain. i hate it! and what sucks is that with each kid it seems like a little part of the dumbness doens't go away so you get more and more forgetful with each one. why us! such a cute story though.

Sweet little scott. What a good boy. I'm glad you found your ring and hopefully you'll find your brain after this baby comes!

Yet another great reason to be excited for pregnancy.:) I don't think I ever lost my prego forgetfullness, unfortunately. Love the faith of your little guy.:)

Great story Nicole. Now you've got a great example should you ever be asked to speak in sacrament. I'm going to blame my pregnant emotions for crying my way through this post. Scott is such a sweet boy!
