Christmas Time is Here!




Hi Everyone,

Wow, I can't believe how long its been since I've last posted something on my blog. We've been busy. The latest and greatest news is that we found out that we are having another BOY! We are super excited about this and are excited that Sam is going to have a brother so close in age. I can just imagine all of the wrestling that will happen in our living room in the future. I'm really going to be outnumbered in our house now! We are trying to start thinking about names, but we always get sick of them within a week so there is really no point in thinking of any right now anyway!!

We've been living in our new house for 3 months now. We've been trying to get work done as we can. Our day consists of going to work all day and then picking up Sam from daycare. From there play with him, feed him, give him a bath, etc and then when 8:00 rolls around we either work on the house or catch up on some good tv!! So far we've painted our living room and are almost done painting the kitchen. We also put new light switches on the first floor. Oh, and Matt and his dad starting finishing the garage as well. For some reason that wasn't ever finished in the 25 other years that othe people lived here.

In the past couple of weeks, I've been busy Christmas shopping. I'm almost done. I only have one more gift to buy. We are looking forward to some time off. We are starting our annual Christmas tour on Saturday. We are having Christmas at my mom's house. This is always something to look forward to because she makes a special meal every year. It ususally involves crab or lobster so I can't wait. Next week we are heading to Matt's parents for the majority of the week. We are looking forward to that. It's always very relaxing and great to get away from the daily grind. From there we will be traveling back to Madison to share Christmas with my dad and his family on Christmas day.

I hope all of you are finding some time to relax during the hectic holiday season. Thank you for all of the Christmas cards/pictures that you've been sending. I love coming home and checking my mail each day to see what I find!! I hope to talk to you all soon. Merry Christmas!!
