I literally just bumped into Jennifer Hudson on the corner of Chicago and Michigan in downtown Chicago. She was looking at a horse and carriage and I was trying to get around her with Jessica’s stroller - I didn’t know who it was until she turned around and said she was sorry for being in the way.
We didn’t get a photo because Aaron was all like - whatever and then 4 blocks later he was all about it. yeah. Boys. But anyway - that was awesome. My claim to fame. So far we’ve just walked around, window shopped and ate dinner - now we’re getting ready to swim.
Check out Aaron’s blog - www.theparagon.org - I think he has a few links as to what he’s doing with the conference and where we’re staying. The “W” hotel on Ontario - seriously nice hotel.
I’m not so sure I’m going home tomorrow now - I might stay the whole time with Aaron, but we’ll see how it goes with Jessica tomorrow, I might not care about anything but my own bed … haha.

You might notice things looking a little differently - thats because my awesome husband surprised me with starting to move this site over to my jodimichelle.com site. Soon this site will no longer be in service and I’ll direct you over to my new site at jodimichelle.com. Hip Hip Hooray!

Me: “Jessica, can you say ‘My name is Jessica .. ?’ “
Jessica: “Schaap.”
Me: “Um - ok - can you say ‘My name is Jessica Schaap .. ?’ “
Jessica: “Ranae.”
Me: “Wow, you’re right! So, can you say ‘My name is Jessica Ranae Schaap .. ?’ “
Jessica: “No.”

Uploaded a bunch of our wedding photos for your viewing pleasure. A friend who I haven’t seen since our wedding (I know, I’m terrible) just reminded me that she hasn’t seen our photos - GASP! So here they are.

A friend of mine has a blog and she just posted 10 little known facts about herself. I love this idea and I’m totally stealing it. Thanks Stacey!! (Wait, is that ok? I’m assuming so, but let me know if it’s not)
I have 3 tattoo’s, although if you look at my flickr account you could find this out easliy.
I had a breast reduction when I was 18 because of massive back problems. And I’ll totally do it all over again once I’m done bearing children if I need to.
I was breast-fed until I was almost 3. (hi mom!) But we also lived in Africa.
I was born in Africa. We moved back to the states just before my 3rd birthday. My first memories are of the last 6 months or so that we lived in Africa.
I bought a motorcycle on my 18th birthday and sold it a few months later.
I had a pet monkey in Africa. No, really.
My parents were going to name me Joni Nicole and changed it in the delivery room to Jodi Michelle.
I used to want to be a boy for a day.
I smoked in highschool.
I don’t drink milk, never have.
I also wrote a childrens book but doubt I’ll ever go through the motions of publishing it either. I also wrote a memoir in highschool - still have the transcript and I know I’ll never publish that one.
We don’t have cable because I’m a lot bit addicted to reality TV.
I don’t read books by non-Christian authors because I don’t like the unrealistic love stories or word porn. Although I have ventured out recently to non-sexual love stories and or other types of fiction by referral only.
If I went back to college I would major in Biology.
Anything I don’t know about you?
