Almost There
Tomorrow I will be having my baby! In just a few short hours I will be kid-free and I'll be able to clean up the messes without messes being made behind me, and I'll be completely ready. I still need to finish packing my bag--what do I pack in it anyway? I have no idea. And a diaper bag--Do I take one? I can't remember if I ever have or not. I don't think I ever have. I'm basically just rambling here. Today is my last day being pregnant. I thought it would be bittersweet but man I'm just ready to be done. DONE. YAY. Tonight I plan on eating a lot of chocolate and playing my new computer game, so no one bug me ok? Just kidding. Well I guess this is it. Tomorrow my family of 4 becomes a family of 5. CRA-Z. I'll post pics as soon as I can.

3 more days!
We survived Christmas, and now I am just trying to force myself to have enough energy to clean up the huge mess that comes along with it. I only took pictures of Christmas morning, and I'll get them updated soon. We had a super wonderful merry Christmas. We did get caught in a bad blizzard and it took us 2 hours to get home, but we made it safe and sound. Thanks to my sister Trisha for letting us use her Trailblazer with 4 wheel drive. She saved us from having to take a trip on Sunday to visit the rest of the family. Every year (without fail) Madison gets sick on Christmas. This year I launched a handwashing/sanitizing campaign in our house in October and started them both on vitamins. I wanted to prevent the sickness that hits every Christmas. Well. It didn't work. Madison was sick, and now she's feeling fine,however, Brylie is now sick. My mom is on her way to help me clean up. I love her!

So Not Domesticated
I'm about to have a baby in 2 weeks. I need y'alls help. I need a few EASY CHEAP freezable recipes. Nothing with mayo, tuna or ketchup please. Please only EASY ones, as I am not a cook and anything complicated is likely to send me crying to my bed. Please comment. Even if you want to leave an anonymous one, stalkers, I would be ever so greatful.

I hate this cat
I know I posted this same thing last year but come on! Why does this cat sleep IN my tree? She climbs up, makes herself comfortable ( is that possible in a tree?) and goes to sleep. I hate her.

Gingerbread House!
We're not all that mormony, and we never go to church, but we had family night last week and we (and when I say we, I mean Nate and the girls) made a gingerbread house! It was from a kit but that's ok. They decorated the house while I put up the tree.

Happy Anniversary!
Today is our 7th anniversary. I wanted to have a nice post with pics of us but I can't get my POS scanner to work so there goes that idea. Nate doesn't even read this blog but I still just wanted to tell him how much I love and adore him and that I am SO happy he's mine. Even though he wont go to the store at 9:58 pm to get me whipped cream so I can eat it with chocolate pudding. I still love him. Here's to 7 more years! ( and then some)

Baby Names
I am having a hard time choosing a name. Nate thinks it's Hailey but I'm just not feeling it. We don't agree on anything (never usually do) and I've only got 4 more weeks. Suggestions? Ideas? Anyone? I do have a few in mind,but I don't share because I don't like to hear peoples rude comments. But if you have any names you think of, send em my way.

The Treehouse
My sister Debbie and her family are here visiting from Portland Oregon for Thanksgiving, and we took all the little kids to The Treehouse. We had a lot of fun, and the kids enjoyed being with cousins. I was miserably sick and my sisters were good to put up with me. Here are the pictures from that day.

not a whole lot.
I don't really have anything to blog about, so this is a catch up post. Madison is doing well in 1st grade, loving everything about it. Brylie is...well... Brylie. Dropped out of preschool after 2 days and just likes to spend time at home with her momma and daddy. She cracks me up! Tonight I was laying with her in her bed, and all of a sudden it stunk (not me) and she said "I smell something" and I said " oh man me too!" and she looked at me and said " I think it was you.". I laughed and laughed. I'm still laughing. Nate's doing fine, was back in the ER on the 15th to have his heart shocked again. He's just fine now. He'll probably have surgery sooner than later. And that brings me to myself. I'm doing fine, getting large, tired, fat and ugly. YAY. I'm noticing little every day tasks are getting harder and harder to accomplish. Like washing my feet, or putting on socks, or even pulling up my pants! Rolling over in bed is a major task...with a lot of grunting and moaning. LOL. I am looking forward to Thanksgiving, my sister and her family will be here from Portland, and I just love it when me and my sisters are together. I'm also looking forward to the food aspect, cause I'm hungry. That's pretty much it for now. Still haven't found me a new vehicle, but when I do, I'll be sure to post.

Going Private?
NOT ME! I guess all the people I blogstalk are on to me, since they're all making thier blogs private. BOO. Anyway, I'll be keeping mine public since I like to do the opposite of what everyone else is doing, that and I think lame ass KSL articles make the mormons scurry, and I refuse the sky is falling mentality. Happy reading!
