So I have been running around the house like a lunatic (a pretty happy lunatic). I have asked Joel if he wants to see a pie chart-trying to figure out if we'll have a boy or girl. He assures me he doesn't but I think he's fibbing so I'll probably make him one anyway. It will lead to the same conclusion my charts have had for months-no idea.
My big debate at the moment is my tattoo. I have been planning to get one for about a year. I thought a permanent mark of something ethiopian (esque) would be appropriate.
My tattoo ideas: (let me know what you think)
Foot: Ethiopia -maybe with meskel daisies
Wrist, Shoulder, or back?: (In Amharic text): Ethiopia OR One Love OR Mother
Those are the top contenders anyway. I've been warned that the foot is probably the most painful place to get a tattoo. But even that seems appropriate. More then likely I will wait and have it done when THE CALL comes.
Now that I think of it that might be a fun girls night for The Tribe. We can all get tattoo'd. hhhmmmm?

HMMMM ... I have thought about this too actually, but in all honestly I know I will never do it. (You are way braver than me!) I'd totally go with you though!
It's really not that bad. I have one and got it when I was 18 or 19. It really didn't hurt that much. Maybe I can talk you into it???
Oh my, I've been considering this for some time!!! My plan was to get "Rahel" and "Pagume" in Amharic. Just cannot decide where. And I know it silly for a 34 year-old mom, but I'm still a wee bit terrified of my Dad! Hooray, so happy to hear the good news! I, for one, would LOVE to see that pie chart.
I do NOT need to see a pie chart as I know the result. :) Damon has been trying to talk me into a tatoo for years and he definitely wants to get an Ethiopian themed tatoo so he will for sure go with you. I am terrified of the pain and also a little scared of my parents too. :) Glad I am not the only one! But I will totally go and hold your hand! YAY for top ten!!!!!!!!!
When I was 19 I had my tattoo and got my belly button pierced. My dad saw it when I came home to do laundry. I guess I've not been so worried about it since then.
Sounds like we need to make a night of it.
That sounded kinda creepy. I was really tiny (and young) then and had one of those shirts that shows your belly button on. Thats how my dad saw it.
not sure about a tattoo, but i've planning to get my nose pierced once I reach a goal I've set, so I'll go along...
