So I stink at blogging....but here's another post!

Hey everyone! So its been like 6 months since I blogged last, but I think I have a pretty good excuse. I got PREGNANT! Yes, believe it. Now we are 23 weeks along with a healthy baby boy- who we have already named John Thomas Green Junior! (Tom is pretty excited that its a boy..and its really cute.) We have been in Idaho this entire time- but NEXT FLIPPING WEEK we will be heading home to Alabama to stay. This decision was made for mainly three reasons. First! Its so ridiculously hard to find jobs out here that pay well. Second! I ain't having no baby in Idaho! and Third! Tom is studying healthcare administration, and a degree in such from BYU-Idaho means jack. We figure his education is pretty important. So we are going home! I couldn't be more excited. Zaxby's, my mom, air conditioning...I really don't know which one I am more excited about. That's how sad my existence is right now!! I am done with school, and have been for a couple of days and I am bored out of my mind. I am going to force myself to start packing. Tom and I put away our winter clothes last week which are our bulkiest clothes. Our guest room is literally full of stuff to be packed, so I will have to get that organized before Betsy and Abbie get here on Sunday!

Tom's last day of work is today. I am so proud of him and thankful that he's been able to work while we have been here. I had a job once, at a cupcake cafe! But my morning sickness got so bad that I had to quit. I was only there for about a month. The beginning of this pregnancy was AWFUL. I thought it would never end. Thankfully, Tommy picked up my slack with working- just like he does with everything else! I know it was hard for him going to school and work everyday too. But he never complains about anything, and here I am rolling on the floor complaining about EVERYTHING! Its one of my favorite things about Tom. I wish I could be more like him. I am SO happy its his last day of work! He said that if he thinks about it too much, it will be the longest four hours of his life, So I have been joking with him all day about how I hope he has a "good first say at work!!!" So much for not talking about it. :)

On sunday me and Tommy read about what foreordination means. We were talking about how some people had to be the "bad guys" because there "must be opposition in all things." If you have seen Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, I have always imagined it like this: What if when we all died and faced Heavenly Father that He showed us Judas and said something along the lines of, "That's not Slugworth! He was working for me!" We read some scriptures about it, and we found out that even though there must be opposition in all things, people still have their agency and the power to make their own decisions. It made me think of how far gone Judas must have been when he betrayed Jesus. But then Tommy brought  up and even cooler point and wondered if the whole reason there is evil, Satan, could ever be forgiven. There had to be opposition, somebody had to disagree. It seems a little unfair to have had that role don't you think?? But i guess that's just a question to get us thinking- nobody really knows the answer. It's' still fun to talk about! 

I will definitely try to keep up with the blogging this time, I am out of school and fat so I really have no excuse! My mother in law is showing me up on her blog...so I guess I should step up my game too! 

Until next time!
